LLM Lab Book 2026-07-12: Claude fable-5 agent forks

 I'm still tracking down what makes some agents find a Nikola Tesla research finding and why others do not. Today, that's led me into investigating Claude CLI's forking harness. A few notes from me. Forking looks pretty spectacular! The agent kicks off a subagent that automatically has a copy of the parent's context. The subagent doesn't add to the parent's context until it's done. So, it seems to make things cheaper, at least for my passenger manifest research. The agent that used forking made the Tesla association. The other two agents with the same inputs and the same model did not use forking and did not find the Tesla assocation. This is important. It seems that agents that don't fork lack the persistence to look for more than one "really good" finding. They make that one good finding, and then kind of take any results for the rest of the passengs as good enough. Each forked subagent is looking for its own "really good" finding ...

Variance in Research; Manual Agent Orchestration - LLM Lab Book 2026-07-02

 More instances of variance in research results, this time around Isidore Nobel. Also, saving tokens by keeping conversations short. Missing Isidore Nobel This was probably due to a misspelling on the British manifest of Nobel's last name as Noble. The U.S. manifest has it as Nobel.  Another midweek usage reset I would say this was caused by the introduction of fable yesterday, but my usage numbers didn't reset until late last night. Yesterday, my limits were at about 21% and set to renew on Saturday. What do ticket number clusters reveal in the sorta solved Hedy Lamarr mystery? First, an update. Hedy Lamarr aka Hildegard Mandl is present on the English version of the manifest. You might remember she is not present on the United States side. No answers yet as to why. However, the English manifest has ticket numbers and people traveling together seem to have similar ticket numbers, so this is a reminder to look for something there. Why we sometimes want substrate-mediated pro...

fable-5 down for now per US Government Directive

 It was fun getting to use Anthropic's Fable-5 for a few days. Hopefully the chance will come up again. For the moment, the US government has denied access to non-US citizens.
