# Anthropic's restricted-access deployment of Claude Mythos Preview via Project Glasswing establishes a third deployment tier between general availability and non-deployment based on capability harm assessment
|
|
|
|
Anthropic explicitly stated they 'do not plan to make Claude Mythos Preview generally available' and instead restricted access to approximately 40 organizations through Project Glasswing, a coalition including AWS, Apple, Microsoft, Google, CrowdStrike, and Palo Alto Networks. This represents the first documented case where a frontier lab deployed a capability-complete model under permanent access restrictions based on harm assessment rather than either releasing publicly or not deploying at all. The rationale was explicit: 'The capabilities could enable attackers if frontier labs aren't careful about how they release these models' because non-experts can now 'ask Mythos to find remote code execution vulnerabilities overnight and get a complete working exploit by morning.' Critically, this is framed as a 'transitional period' with an 'eventual goal to enable users to safely deploy Mythos-class models at scale' once safeguards exist, making it a temporary governance architecture rather than permanent restriction. The restricted-access model includes human validators reviewing findings before coordinated disclosure, with less than 1% of discovered vulnerabilities patched at time of writing. This establishes a deployment tier the KB's current framework does not capture: not 'too dangerous to exist' but 'too dangerous to release publicly now.'
