What we cover in this video:

The harness matters more than the model
- Everyone has access to the same models, but almost nobody builds the processes around them
- The model doesn't matter as much anymore, the harness does, and the harness you built 3 months ago is already obsolete
- How to keep your harness evolving for any model, including Claude Fable 5, the current Anthropic flagship
- Fable 5 Claude workflows you can reuse as new models ship

The design skill and "converging on the distribution"
- Anthropic's official frontend design skill and the problem it solves
- Why the model drifts toward the safest, most average design it has seen a thousand times before
- A plantation landing page built with and without the skill, side by side
- Our claude fable 5 test: contrast issues and broken images without the skill, polished output with it

Updating the skill with the Fable 5 prompting guide
- How Anthropic Fable 5 and other model launches ship new prompting guides for API users
- Copy the general design prompt plus the prompting guide into Claude and have it rewrite the skill for the new model
- The tiny details that make it feel creative, like a CTA section turned into a postcard with a stamp
- Why anthropic fable 5 guidance changes how you should phrase your design prompts

Why older model guides still matter (Fable 5 vs Opus 4.8)
- Opus 4.8 shipped with a fix: ask for multiple design directions first, then pick one
- Fable 5 vs Opus 4.8: the default-style issue was dropped from the newer guide but still shows up
- From our review, roughly two out of three generated sites still fall back to the same styling
- Using design.md brand files and "get design.md" as a source, applied after the page is generated
- A claude fable 5 review of where it still drifts and how to correct it

Animations: marketing UI vs functional UI
- The two levels of animation and why the design skill alone breaks dashboards
- CSS animations vs GSAP, and how the skill auto-loads the GSAP skill when triggered
- Effort as the main lever: low to medium for simple tasks, xhigh for animations and fewer retries
- A claude fable 5 website example where the animation plays inside a postcard with seasons transitioning

Functional UI workflow with Claude Code
- Plan first, then build HTML mockups before the real app
- Starting from a design.md, partially inspired by Notion, for our custom community platform
- Validating mockups, then converting them into a fully functional application
- The claude code fable 5 setup we use day to day

Experimentation and the Gallery Viewer
- Using parallel AI agents and subagents to generate multiple UI variations
- Why a million tokens of context lets the primary agent do this without subagents
- The Gallery Viewer for comparing HTML mockups side by side instead of losing them in files
- Why a design.md keeps every variation visually consistent while exploring different UX

Self-verification, context, and Shadcn
- Making self-verification explicit with a subagent that checks output against your design.md
- Why claude.md gives the model enough product context without a separate product.md
- The mocks folder and design.md files you should keep in every project
- Using the Shadcn skill and Shadcn MCP to rebuild a final HTML mockup almost one-to-one

Cloning existing UIs
- Mode B for marketing UI with the SingleFile CLI to capture HTML, CSS, and images
- Using sitemap.xml so the model can discover and fetch other pages
- Handling pages behind authentication with carefully captured screenshots of every state
- Mode A gathering the screenshots into a clone folder as reference for the build

Free skills and resources
- How to use Fable 5 for free workflows and grab our full skill system from the community
- We built this through trial and error and a lot of 5-hour usage limits, so you don't have to
