I asked it to research itself in Row-Bot:

https://t.co/H0deNsxiq6

[Claude @claudeai]

We’re introducing Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1.

They're the world’s most advanced models for coding and knowledge work.

[Syd @sydsachar]

OpenClaw is unnecessarily bloated and complicated. That is why we built Row-Bot.
Gives you the same flexibility and power without any of the complexity.

Try @row_bot_ai

[Syd @sydsachar]

You can get all that for free and run it with any model, including local ones.
That's what Row-Bot gives you.

[Syd @sydsachar]

Cua is great. Its what powers computer use in Row-Bot. And it works so much better in Row-Bot than in the bloatware called OpenClaw.

[Syd @sydsachar]

@AnthropicAI Fable 5.1 is available in Row-Bot. As usual with a new model reales, I asked it to research itself.
Not just the benchmarks, but what real people are saying.
And the first impression is good.

Here is the full research:

What the research found
Claude Fable 5.1 launched on 1 September 2026 alongside Mythos 5.1 (same model, restricted safeguards for vetted cyber/life-sciences partners). The community reaction is broadly positive but with sharp edges.

Praise (web + X) - Token efficiency is the headline win — ~25% cheaper than Fable 5, up to 45% cheaper for agentic work, and a 75% cut to cache-read pricing (Sources: https://t.co/KB51FLWlNo,

Benchmarks: 73.4% on CursorBench 3.2; 82% on Browserbase's hardest browser-agent suite vs 74% for Opus 5; tops the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index with 67.2% accuracy on AA-Omniscience (Sources: https://t.co/SsIq1xuJLH, https://t.co/5LmitZ4EX9)
Honesty under pressure: "If it gets stuck, it says so instead of reporting success" and it's less likely to disable a failing test (Source: https://t.co/fB5V3JBiF3)
X chatter: it reportedly cracked a years-old software bug, and rolled out to GitHub Copilot on day one.

Concerns (X + Reddit) - Usage limits: developers on X report exhausting entire 5-hour Claude Code sessions after a single prompt, even on the $200/month Max 20x plan. - Pro-plan users feel sidelined — r/ClaudeAI is vocal that OpenAI ships to every tier while Anthropic gates behind Max. - Output fingerprinting/watermarking is now live from 5.1 onward, and people are already discussing workarounds. - Lingering complaints about aggressive safety filters, "Claudese" flowery prose (Anthropic even added prompt guidance to curb it), and benchmark scepticism after the Opus 5 launch (Source: https://t.co/jlAmr9rT7p) - A few X posters note the timing: "launched when most coders are switching to Codex in bulk."

[Cua @trycua]

1/ OpenClaw 2.0 is out - we're excited to have worked with the @openclaw team to bring a first-class computer-use experience directly into OpenClaw.

Now you can put that experience to work: launch an OpenClaw desktop fleet on Cua Cloud Fleets, with native computer use built for multi-player agent workflows: https://t.co/NIPtFgUe91

I find myself using Grok Bot more and more and leaving Claude and Codex on the shelf, just because it always does what I tell it to without bitching about it

I tried OpenClaw 2.0, and it’s a total disaster.

Peter Steinberger has basically unlimited support from OpenAI, infinite tokens, backing from giants like NVIDIA, tailored model optimizations, and an incredibly talented team.

Yet after all this time, OpenClaw still just doesn't work.

You have to step in and fix things at almost every turn.

The UX is so bad that if I asked my own agent to design the interface, it’d probably do a better job. I’m 100% convinced GPT designed it, which explains the quality.

A flaw I’ve dealt with since the early Clawdbot days is still there, and the agent gets stuck in loops, repeats itself, and wanders off-task.

It’s honestly bizarre how bad it is.

Vision alone isn't enough.
You need consistency and reliability to last.

I’m definitely sticking with the smarter choice: Hermes Agent.

[Syd @sydsachar]

We have. You can run as many in parallel threads. And each threads can have parallel child agents.

[Syd @sydsachar]

Start with Row-Bot. Open source and Model agnostic. The rest will follow.

Run local models as well as the frontier models. As local models get better, transition your workflows to those.

Row-Bot makes this super. easy

[Syd @sydsachar]

[Alex Finn @AlexFinn]

You NEED to do this with Grok Bot

Probably my favorite workflow yet. For each area of your career/life assign an executive bot

I have a chief content officer, chief community officer, chief SaaS officer etc...

Then put them all in an exec channel. Every morning have a standup meeting. Each exec goes over:

1. What they did the last day
2. Their goal this week
3. Where they stand against it
4. One move today to get closer

Then at the end, each exec gives feedback, advice, and how they can help the other execs to achieve their goals

If you set this up the right way, it's a MASSIVE unlock that will increase your team's productivity

They key is having an exec with a good description/memories for each area of your life, and having a chief of staff managing the standup

Also key to have bot employees under each exec. Typically I have developers and researchers depending on the department

Then set this standup as a routine for your chief of staff, and he will make sure it's run every day

Wondering how to set it up? Literally just give this post to your chief of staff and say 'bro set this up'

[Syd @sydsachar]

@ben_sage It was slow, but we managed somehow.

open source ai must win

[Satyam @sattyyouneed]

Grok Bot is just a harness.

You don’t need to pay $300/month for it.

There are GitHub alternatives, or Hermes if you’re willing to tweak it a little.

Pretty much the same thing.

[Syd @sydsachar]

We have. You can run as many in parallel threads. And each threads can have parallel child agents.

[jacky @jjacky]

after using half a dozen agent interfaces

slack, devin, conductor, warp, claude code, etc

no one has solved the ui/ux for when working with many agent sessions yet

i still get lost when working with >4

unsolved problem still as of yet imo

anyone working to solve this?

[Syd @sydsachar]

@thsottiaux You won't let me enjoy my holiday. Could have waited till next week 😅

[Syd @sydsachar]

@petergyang Not in Row-Bot. We have tested this. Works seamlessly. Does invalidate the cache, so you might spend a tiny bit more.
