Devin Ultra tops FrontierCode with Fable 5
Cognition has integrated Anthropic's new Claude Fable 5 model into Devin via the new Cloud Ultra agent, which achieved the top spot on the FrontierCode benchmark. The new agent is optimized for long-horizon tasks and debugging, priced at a 40% premium over the default Devin agent.
The integration of Claude Fable 5 underscores the trend where the capabilities of AI coding agents are heavily bound to the reasoning strengths of underlying foundation models.
- –The new Ultra agent offers a significant performance boost for complex, multi-step tasks like debugging and planning.
- –Achieving the top spot on FrontierCode validates Devin's focus on code mergeability and real-world usefulness over theoretical coding tests.
- –A 40% cost premium for a major tier upgrade represents aggressive optimization of the model harness, aiming to drive enterprise adoption.
