Cat Wu, product lead for Claude Code, and Thariq Shihipar have left Anthropic.

Revolut reduced AI coding inference costs ~90% by replacing Claude Code with self-hosted GLM models, enabling broader internal developer adoption.

My company is pretty paranoid about leaking IP to the frontier labs through prompts, so we've all been diligent about disabling data sharing in Codex/Claude Code/etc. But yesterday my coworkers and I noticed that the setting had been silently reenabled in Codex. None of us knowingly opted back in. You can check your settings here: https://chatgpt.com/settings/data-controls. Look for "Improve the model for everyone". Curious if this is an isolated issue or something more widespread. EDIT: looks like this has been noted before https://news....

Malicious actor published tampered Claude Code extension on Cursor marketplace; Anthropic confirms no internal compromise.

Trojanized Claude Code extension in Cursor IDE exploits two vulnerabilities; developers using Cursor should audit installed extensions immediately.

Malicious Claude Code extension on Cursor installed SSH backdoors in ~5,000 developer systems within 11 hours on Oct 29.

Security backdoors discovered in official Claude Code extensions require immediate developer attention and patching.

Unauthorized AI relay disables OpenAI Codex and Claude sandboxes, distributing to China with security bypassed.

Claude Code background agents transmit conversation transcripts to Anthropic's model by default, raising data privacy implications for developers.

More and more of your terminal work now runs through tools that push the terminal harder than a shell prompt ever did: AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex, full-screen apps like Neovim and tmux, system monitors and dashboards. These tools lean on modern terminal protocols, the kind today’s best standalone terminals are built […]

Best practices guide for cost management and ROI measurement for Claude Code deployments on Google Cloud.

Empirical study of coding agents' harness self-evolution on SWE-bench Verified, analyzing how Claude Code proposes and implements retrospective adaptations.

OpenCode is an open-source AI coding agent that's become a popular alternative to Claude Code and Cursor. But hackers got into part of its online platform and stole some users’ API keys, and the AI tools it turned to for help kept refusing to look at the malicious code.

Simon Willison implements SPARQL 1.1 query support as a SQLite extension in Rust, demonstrating Claude Code's dynamic workflow capabilities.

Netflix plugged JetBrains’ headless code-intelligence engine – the same one behind IntelliJ IDEA – into Claude Code and Codex, then benchmarked it against a variety of scenarios. The details and numbers are available below. At a glance Company Netflix – Application Development Platform (ADP), GenAI Platform, and Agentic SDLC teams Challenge Coding agents were struggling […]

Anthropic released new eval tooling for Claude Code. Their claude-api plugin now includes a new build_eval and hill-climb command that helps you build evals, check the graders, and improve your application against them. I usually don’t review eval tools because software changes so often that reviews have a short shelf life. But a first-party tool from Anthropic is likely to influence how people approach evals, so I wanted to try it and share what I found. Isaac Flath and I livestreamed ourselves using it on conversation traces from an apartment leasing assistant. Here’s what we found: The bad...

Anthropic ships Claude Opus/Sonnet 5.5 with new coding features: Mods, Plugins, Projects, Tag for Claude Code IDE.

Anecdote: large company relying heavily on Claude Code for artifact generation creates workflow dysfunction despite high throughput expectations.

Anthropic adds AGENTS.md support to Claude Code v2.1.277 for project instruction customization via modular architecture.

The revamped projects feature in Claude Code allows users to run multiple agents under the same roof, with a shared memory, goals, and library of files and artifacts. Similar to Grok Bot and other tools that manage groups of AI agents, each project has "threads" running different tasks in parallel, with a "coordinator" directing everything: Under the hood, each thread is a Claude Code cloud session working on its own branch and copy of the repo. The coordinator keeps work organized, but if any threads work on the same code, the overlap is resolved as a merge conflict just like any other PR. E...
