Frequently asked questions
Is Claude down right now?
As of this build, 6 of 6 tracked Claude systems report operational. This page reads the official Anthropic status board (status.claude.com) and re-checks live when you open it — so it answers "is Claude down right now?" with current data, not a cached value.
Is Claude Code down?
The Claude Code component currently reports Operational on the official status board. If you're seeing Claude Code errors while the board shows operational, it's usually a local or network issue rather than a platform-wide outage.
Is the Claude API down?
The Claude API (api.anthropic.com) component currently reports Operational on the official status board. A model being suspended (Fable 5/Mythos 5) is separate from an API outage — the API can be operational while specific models are unavailable.
Is claude.ai down?
The claude.ai web app currently reports Operational on the official status board. Use the live re-check above for the most current reading.
Why is Claude down or degraded?
When Claude is degraded, the cause is shown in the "Recent incidents" section above, sourced from the official status board. Right now the most significant event is the export-control suspension of Fable 5 and Mythos 5 — which limits specific models, not the whole platform.
Where is the official Claude status page?
The official Anthropic status board is status.claude.com. This page mirrors and normalizes it, adds the Mythos/Fable availability verdict, and is independent of Anthropic.
Is Claude Fable 5 available?
Anthropic's status page reports an active incident: "We’ve suspended access to Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5." Access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 remains suspended pending a US government export-control directive. This verdict is derived from live data — the official status board and current reporting — never hardcoded.
Why are Fable 5 and Mythos 5 suspended?
Anthropic issued a statement on June 12, 2026 about a US government export-control directive suspending all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5. Anthropic has said it intends to restore Fable 5 to subscription plans when capacity and clearance allow.
How current is this status?
The page is rebuilt automatically every ~30 minutes and re-checks the live status indicator in your browser when opened. The build-time snapshot here is from Jun 30, 2026, 10:35 PM UTC.
