Astra requires multiple turns and fresh refactoring agents to produce good code.
Fable 5.1/Opus 5.5 isn’t different, but the first cut is better quality.
Astra is a whole order of magnitude cheaper than Fable, and the Anthropic usage limits are ridiculous. Layers on layers of limits that constantly trip.
We don’t really use Sol because Astra X High is cheap. Some have mentioned regressions but we haven’t noticed any with Astra.
