    Anthropic's Thariq explains what Claude Code mods can access and control

    AIAnthropic's Thariq describes Claude Code mods, which can read conversation scope such as turn count and token usage. Mods run in process, so they can spawn subagents, parse their results with structured output, and modify the UI, which hooks cannot do. Mods ship inside plugins and are installed with /plugin in the CLI or desktop app.

    Hakoniwa uses Comfy Agent to make the animated short YUI

    AIArtist 852 Hakoniwa made YUI, described as the first animated short created with Comfy Agent, which the ComfyUI team says took three days of focused work by one person at about 200,000 yen in total cost, excluding labor. The source says the film was made mostly with Seedance 2.5 and the making-of video with MiniMax H3, with Comfy Agent used to regenerate shots and compare video models.

    Microsoft Copilot adds GPT-6.1 Sol and Claude Sonnet 5.5 models

    AIMicrosoft Copilot begins rolling out OpenAI's GPT-6.1 Sol and Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 5.5 today, joining Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol added earlier this month. Users can pick the model suited to each task, with Work IQ grounding responses in their files, meetings, and chats within existing permissions. The rollout starts today in Copilot Cowork and Copilot Studio, with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Chat following in phases over the coming week.

    Extropic uses Prime Intellect to post-train Qwen3.6-35B-A3B for thermodynamic ML

    AIExtropic post-trained Qwen3.6-35B-A3B with Prime Intellect for thermodynamic ML research, nearly tripling its held-out eval results in about 100 GRPO steps. The team built a custom RL environment with verifiers and trained on Hosted Training, Prime Sandboxes, and Prime Inference. This let Extropic avoid managing multi-node GPU infrastructure and focus on research.

    LlamaIndex launches Extract v2.5 document extraction agents with improved accuracy

    AILlamaIndex introduced Extract v2.5, a series of agents tuned for document extraction across cost-effective, agentic, and agentic plus tiers. The company reports the agents outperform Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Sol while costing 30% to 4x less, with accuracy gains on long lists (86.1% to 95.5%), multi-page records (85.5% to 96.5%), and scanned forms (90.9% to 95.7%) on its agentic tier. The release adds advanced citations with bounding boxes and structural reasoning, and the agents are available on LlamaParse.

    Training LFM2.5-2.6B inside four agent harnesses boosts held-out tasks

    AIHugging Face shows that training LFM2.5-2.6B with RL inside the agent harnesses themselves lifted held-out task success from 42% to 54% across four harnesses. Before training, the model solved 62% of tasks in Mini-SWE-Agent but only 33% in Claude Code, so the same model behaved very differently per harness. The approach uses an OpenEnv capture proxy to record tokens and logprobs, Harbor for tasks and sandboxes, and TRL's async GRPO trainer, with 31% fewer tool calls on already-solved tasks; training in OpenCode alone mostly improved OpenCode.

    Hugging Face clarifies ml-intern options, one trained model for $6

    AIHugging Face says ml-intern is an open-source ML engineering and research harness usable free on local setups, and it is also hosted on Hugging Chat with no-code access. A second hosted option runs on Hugging Face infrastructure, where ml-intern selects the cheapest GPU for a task so models can be trained for a few dollars. MaziyarPanahi reportedly trained a model by prompting alone for $6.60 on an NVIDIA A100 in 16 minutes.

    Comfy Agent Launches in ComfyUI Cloud, Desktop Version Coming Weeks Later

    AIComfy Agent, an AI agent that builds, runs, and iterates on workflows from plain-language requests, is now available in Comfy Cloud and will arrive in Comfy Desktop in a few weeks. It can work directly on the canvas alongside users, support up to 5 parallel chats, and use public or private skills. Comfy Agent is in beta and uses existing Comfy Credits.

    Cloudflare OS opens managed agent workspace waitlist with GitHub and Google Workspace support

    AICloudflare is opening a waitlist for fully managed Cloudflare OS deployments, where organizations configure a custom domain, Cloudflare Access policies, and an AI Gateway. The update lets agents mount existing GitHub repositories to explore code, fix bugs, and open pull requests, and read, draft, and send Gmail while accessing Google Drive. Built-in document, presentation, and spreadsheet tools can now export to Excel, CSV, PDF, Markdown, and HTML, with Word and PowerPoint export coming soon.

    Why it matters: The post shows how a managed agent workspace connects to GitHub and Google Workspace, which matters for teams weighing self-hosting against a managed deployment.

    Amazon Science Explains Graph-Centric Agentic AI for Network Root Cause Analysis

    AIAmazon Science describes a graph-centric approach in which a network digital twin graph and cascaded graph algorithms, orchestrated by an agentic AI layer, identify root causes in complex network failures. The approach was demonstrated with NTT DOCOMO at the Mobile World Conference, achieving root cause analysis in minutes on commercial networks. The article traces how graphs evolved from topology models to active reasoning substrates for agents.

    JetBrains Air enters early access as an agent system inside its IDEs

    AIJetBrains has opened the Early Access Program for Air, an agentic development experience available as a plugin on JetBrains Marketplace or in the 2026.3 EAP builds of its IDEs. Air works with existing agents such as Codex, GitHub Copilot, Junie, and Cursor, and it ships with no agents installed. Free Junie Lite runs are offered, while cloud runs require a JetBrains AI subscription.

    Why it matters: The post explains how Air brings existing agents into the IDE, showing a concrete workflow for managing parallel agent sessions alongside code review tools.

    Ethan Mollick Says Agent Coordination Is Easier Than Expected

    AIEthan Mollick says he was wrong to think coordinating AI agents would require careful human-designed management structures. He points to personal agents like dots and Muse, and to a swarm of thousands of OpenAI agents that solved a Navier-Stokes problem in 88 hours with thin coordination. He argues many management problems stem from human limits, which agents lack, so people should mainly guide direction while agents handle organizing.

    Matthew Schwartz on finding Claude-shaped science problems with BootLoops

    AIPhysicist Matthew Schwartz describes building BootLoops, an open-source harness for exact quantitative calculations, after choosing problems suited to Claude's strengths. He reports that Claude solved long-standing integrals and found connections across ecology, population genetics, economics, and linguistics, with domain experts steering results toward questions those fields care about. The post states that the approach required constant human oversight, since Claude often overstated results and misjudged time.

    Why it matters: The guest post explains why scientists often find current AI tools frustrating and offers a method for finding problems where AI and researchers match, backed by concrete projects.

    Manus 2.0 Adds Video Editor for Creating and Editing Publishable Videos

    AIManus 2.0 introduces Video Editor, which lets users refine videos Manus generates, including changes to music, captions, and cut timing, without regenerating the entire video. The article describes Manus creating explainers, launch films, and animations from a single prompt, drawing on web search, video models such as Seedance 2.5, and code for motion graphics.
