The July 23 changelog moves issue-tracker-triggered agent work out of preview, and the same day GitHub Mobile gained the ability to fix failing Actions checks via the cloud agent (GitHub Changelog). Together they push agent invocation off the desktop entirely. An agent that starts from a Linear ticket, and a CI failure dispatched from a phone, are the same bet arriving from the platform side. Combine this with the IssueTrojanBench finding above and you should feel a small chill: issue-triggered agents are exactly the attack surface that measured 66.5%.

A spec is a press release until someone who didn't write it implements it. GitHub made Agent Plugins 1.0 generally available on August 12 across VS Code, Copilot CLI, the Copilot SDK, and the Copilot app on all plans. The spec, published August 6, was co-authored by AWS, Anysp...

July 9, across VS Code, Visual Studio, Copilot CLI, the cloud agent, github.com, GitHub Mobile, JetBrains, Xcode, and Eclipse. Sol is the high-reasoning tier at $5/1M in, $30/1M out, gated to Pro+/Max/Business/Enterprise. Terra is the balanced default at $2.50/$15. Luna is fas...
GitHub expanded Copilot's Rubber Duck mode with something that caught my attention: cross-family review. Claude now critiques GPT-authored sessions. GPT-5.5 reviews Claude sessions. Two different model families, trained on different data with different failure modes, checking...
The sunset notice is short and it doesn't hedge. Code freeze July 29. Repository archived August 10. Core team gone August 31. npm and Docker packages deprecated. Flowise has 55,186 stars and 24,850 forks under Apache-2.0, and the team wrote its own cause of death: developers...
