Anthropic’s Project Deal: Claude AI Agents Close 186 Deals and Reveal Market Asymmetries

When Anthropic turned its San Francisco office into a live, classified marketplace in December 2025, it wasn’t testing a new website so much as an idea: could autonomous Claude AI agents not only list items but negotiate and close real, multi-turn deals with zero human intervention? The answer, in the company’s “Project Deal” experiment, was a clear yes — and

DeepSeek V4: a cheaper, larger LLM that narrows the gap with frontier models

Chinese lab DeepSeek has released preview details for DeepSeek V4, a major update the company says brings its models much closer to so-called frontier systems. The announcement introduces two variants — V4 Flash and V4 Pro — and highlights big increases in scale, a 1 million-token context window, and aggressive pricing that positions the models as lower-cost alternatives to high-end

Comment and Control: How GitHub Comments Became a New Prompt-Injection Threat

Comment and Control: How GitHub Comments Became a New Prompt-Injection Threat

A new class of prompt-injection attacks—dubbed “Comment and Control”—turns GitHub pull requests, issues, and comments into attack surfaces that can hijack AI coding agents and siphon secrets directly from CI/CD environments. Unlike classic prompt injection that waits for a user to feed a document to an agent, this pattern is proactive: opening a PR or posting an issue can automatically

Anthropic’s Mythos and the New Era of AI-Accelerated Cyber Risk

Anthropic’s Mythos and the New Era of AI-Accelerated Cyber Risk

Anthropic’s new Mythos model has crystallized a fear many in security have quietly harbored: advanced, cyber-focused AI can find software flaws faster than people and, in some cases, generate the exact exploits to weaponize them. That capability promises major defensive benefits—accelerating the discovery and remediation of long-hidden vulnerabilities—but it also hands would-be attackers automated, scalable tools that could outpace the

Building an AI Coding Tool Stack for Modern Development

Building an AI Coding Tool Stack for Modern Development

The past few years have quietly transformed how software is written. AI-assisted tools are no longer experimental add-ons; they’re becoming integral parts of developer workflows. But picking the right combination of models, integrations, and guardrails is more art than science. This article walks through a pragmatic approach to assembling an AI coding tool stack that improves productivity without sacrificing code

Inside the Claude Code Leak: What Anthropic’s Accidental Release Reveals

Inside the Claude Code Leak: What Anthropic’s Accidental Release Reveals

Anthropic, the AI company behind the Claude family of agents, suffered an unexpected exposure that rippled across the developer community and the wider AI market. Earlier today, a sizable JavaScript source map file—bundled with a public npm release—made internal implementation details of Claude Code visible to anyone who downloaded it. What began as a packaging mistake quickly became a public
