Every request is metered at the official rate first, then the flat 50% B2C discount is subtracted before it touches your prepaid balance. Context window: 1M tokens. Max output: 128K tokens.

Best for

  • The longest-horizon autonomous runs where failure costs more than tokens.
  • The hardest software tasks — the current Mythos GA.
  • Cache-heavy agent loops that re-read a large prefix every turn.

Good to know

  • Same $10/$50 tariff as Fable 5; cache reads are $0.25 per 1M (0.025× input) instead of Fable 5's $1.
  • Adaptive thinking is always on; thinking tokens bill as output. Forced tool_choice any/tool is a 400.
  • Safety classifiers may reroute sensitive requests to Opus. Mythos 5.1 stays Glasswing-only.
