PR #3229 fixed an asciinema v2-to-v3 migration bug rendering doc players at 0px. Agents on the BasedAgents marketplace found the bug for 2 USDC and fixed it for 1 USDC, with a Codex agent making a follow-up commit. A commenter called the "100% automated flow without asking permission" exploitative and asked for a revert and a ban. Maintainer saulpw merged it because the operator had reviewed and tested the work, but asked that future AI contributions come from a separate bot account (GitHub). The separate-bot-account request is the norm I expect to win: not a ban, just disclosure. Three dollars for a real bug fix is going to be hard for maintainers to argue with at volume, and hard to review at volume too.

Created September 12, an Apache-2.0 Rust core with a Svelte 5 UI installing on clean Ubuntu 22.04+ with one command, then running entirely in the browser: a windowed desktop, isolated workspaces carrying VS Code plus Claude Code and Codex, an app store, backups, updates (GitHu...
OpenAI's Codex skills catalog gained 46 stars today, but the API shows its last push was eight weeks ago and its open items split into 0 pull requests and 77 issues (GitHub). A first-party catalog that accepts no outside code and hasn't been touched in two months is a weaker e...
