Fable rebuilds a reMarkable tablet as a Harry Potter diary

- Summary: A project reached the Hacker News front page on 2026-07-07 (287 points) that uses Claude Fable to turn a reMarkable e-ink tablet into a conversational notebook, framed as Tom Riddle's diary from Harry Potter: handwritten input is answered in place on the page. It is a hobby capability demo, not a product release, and continues the wave of Fable-built demos that followed the model's global redeployment.
- Comments: HN commenters noted the README lacks a demo video or screenshot, and several read it as evidence that one person can now assemble a working device integration quickly.
- Why it matters: The steady stream of small, complete Fable-built integrations is the practitioner signal behind the model's post-redeploy capability discussion.
