Widely reported to honor Claude Shannon; Anthropic has not said. Naming an agent after the model is naming a retriever Dog, and since January 2026, when a trademark objection renamed a whole project over the pun, it is also paperwork. Among human boys it peaked in 1887, so the vintage market is open, and 43 New York dogs have already bought in.
- OracleOracle
Leads the entire mythology category in the seed data, and belongs to no one, apart from a database company.
- SageOracle
Wisdom, in one syllable, with a garden in it.
- CassandraOracle
Always right, never believed. Parents of review agents will recognize this.
- SibylOracle
