On July 1, 2026, the US Department of Commerce lifted export controls on Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after a 19-day freeze that began June 12. Anthropic will begin restoring access July 2 and agreed to proactively detect security risks, work with the government on protocols for future models, and report malicious activity. Under a Trump executive order, developers may offer covered frontier models to the US government for up to 30 days of review before broader release. OpenAI delayed the full public launch of GPT-5.6 at the government's request. Commerce reserved the right to re-impose license requirements. Every business built on a single frontier model now carries interruption risk. Run The Model Continuity Doctrine 5-question audit before your primary model gets frozen next.
