China’s DeepSeek previews new AI model a year after jolting US rivals

Chinese AI company DeepSeek released a preview of its hotly anticipated next-generation AI model V4 on Friday, saying that the open-source model can compete with leading closed-source systems from US rivals including Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI. DeepSeek says V4 marks a major improvement over prior models, especially in coding, a capability that has become central to AI agents and helped drive the success of tools like ChatGPT Codex and Claude Code. The release is also a milestone for China's chip industry, with DeepSeek explicitly highlighting compatibility with domestic Huawei technology....

Claude + Codex = Excellence

I have a 20x Claude account and have been using Opus 4.7 exclusively for all code. I noticed even after asking multiple times to do code review, Opus would still not get there 100%. Here is what I did: 1. Installed Codex cli and ran it in a Tmux session 2. Claude created PR for Codex to review 3. Claude pinged Codex via shell so I can see the Codex thinking and approve any file permission. Claude set a wake up window. 4. Codex reviewed and updated comments in PR. 5. Claude woke up and validated the comments before editing code. Surprisingly Claude missed a lot of things...

Does Claude's $20 Plan No Longer Include Claude Code?

Was looking at buying the $20 Plan today after a demonstration from a friend (and wanting to switch/try my options from Codex), but saw that Claude Code was not included. I wanted to ask if this was a temporary change, or if the Pro plan truly never had Claude Code, and I was mistaken. My friend has a Max plan, so I could just be mistaken. Thanks!

I started building Claude Code plugins, then realized I didn’t want to duplicate the same plugin for every AI agent

I’ve been building plugins for Claude Code, and the first version of the idea was very Claude-focused. That made sense at the start. Claude Code has a real plugin model, hooks are useful, and it is one of the few agent tools where plugins can actually become part of a daily workflow. But after building a few integrations, I kept running into the same uncomfortable question: If I write the useful part of a plugin once, why should I rewrite or repackage the same thing again for Codex, Gemini, Cursor, OpenCode, and whatever comes next? The actual plugin logic is often not Claude-specific. Th...
