The Pragmatic Engineer published a deep read on August 25 of Inspect, the coding agent Ramp built instead of standardizing on Claude Code or Cursor. The numbers: Inspect authors 75% of Ramp's merged PRs, 90% of PRs in its own repository, passed 1 million total sessions in July...
Six clients. One manifest. Zero vendor lock. Vercel published Agent Plugins 1.0.0 on August 6, an openly licensed spec that bundles Agent Skills and MCP servers behind a single portable manifest. The shape is deliberately boring: a plugin.json requiring only schemaVersion and...
