Fable 5.1
Claude Fable 5.1 now powers Amp's ultra mode, replacing Fable 5. It's very good at writing, very good at taking direction mid-task, and very good at working on its own. And it costs less to run.

Space to Talk
Every thread in Amp now comes with its own space to talk. Hit Enter and you're in. Turn on your camera, share your screen, and talk it over with your team while the agent works. No links to paste, no calendar invite, no other app. The call lives where the work lives.

No Mailmap Required
Amp can now use a Git identity that is separate from the email on your Amp account. Pick the name and verified email that should appear on commits made in orbs. You can ask Puck to set it for you: If you have not added the identity yet, Puck sends a verification link to the email address.

Friendly URLs for Sharing Orbs
We use orb portals all the time to share what we're builing and get feedback. But the URLs were ugly and auto-generated. So, we made them nice and friendly.

You can now bring your team into your orb. Use @ to tag members of your team, and they'll be able to view, drive, and send chat messages to the thread. We've been having a lot of fun with this feature recently. Here are a few examples: ← 1 / 9 →

Talk to Puck
You can now talk with Puck in realtime: Realtime chat with Puck is powered by gpt-realtime-2.1. It delegates work to the Puck agent you already know, powered by GPT-5.6 Sol. Once the agent responds, gpt-realtime-2.1 summarizes the answer out loud while the full response appears in the thread.

A Dial for You
We changed the Dial. Link a ChatGPT subscription and low, medium, and high only use OpenAI models: as the main agent, as the oracle, as the thread reader, as code review. Every model behind those modes is an OpenAI model, billed to your subscription.

Size the Orbs of Production!
People are using a lot of orbs. We love to see that. We've shipped a lot of things so that Amp subscriptions keep covering the whole month of orb usage for almost everyone, even as orb usage grows quickly. Way back on July 27, we cut orb prices by 20% for everyone.
