Published September 1, adding evaluator testing to the MCP server so evaluators can be exercised from a coding agent, multimodal eval inputs, and cached input tokens and cost as trace-table columns (GitHub). The prior day's 4.26.0 added linking from a trace to the evaluator execution trace that scored it, which closes the loop on debugging why an eval produced a given score.

A GitHub repo cataloging Claude Code tips doesn't normally warrant a top story. But shanraisshan/claude-code-best-practice at 53.4K stars isn't a tips list anymore. It's the de facto reference for how an entire generation of developers is learning to work with AI coding agents...
chrome-devtools-mcp isn't another community MCP server with 200 stars and a README that doesn't match the code. It's Google's Chrome DevTools team shipping an official MCP server that gives any coding agent (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, Cursor) full access to Chrome DevTool...
Three separate Anthropic changes over about two weeks point the same direction, and none of them announced themselves as a strategy. Claude Code 2.1.238 added claude self-hosted-runner --defer-shutdown-max-min, which keeps serving attached sessions on SIGTERM, parks whatever's...
oraios/serena markets itself as "the IDE for your coding agent": LSP-backed semantic retrieval at the symbol level, rename, move and inline refactors, and symbolic editing instead of text patches, across 40+ languages and 3,304 commits (GitHub). The claim practitioners repeat...
A Chinese lab shipped a runtime that manages two American coding agents as subagents, and it went from repo creation to 145,439 stars in four days. deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness published dsh-v0.1.0-rc.7 at 12:01 UTC today, its first tagged release since the repo appeared on Au...
Three things happened this month that only make sense together. Agent Plugins 1.0 shipped co-signed by six competitors: AWS, Anysphere, Microsoft, OpenAI, Vercel and Google (GitHub Changelog). It makes skills-plus-MCP bundles portable across clients. OpenAI's August 11 Codex c...
