Because Fable 5 cannot be offered under Zero Data Retention (Anthropic retains inference logs for 30 days), this gates the model behind an explicit data-retention consent: a new telemetry.anthropic_retention setting (default off, surfaced in the Privacy section of the settings UI), and a hard, non-retryable check in the cloud completion path that raises a typed error when consent is missing. When Fable 5 declines a request, it transparently falls back to Claude Opus 4.8 (matching Anthropic's server-side behavior), and the agent panel shows a callout for the consent error with "Switch to Opus 4.8" / "Accept" actions that resume the failed turn so the user's message continues without retyping.
