OpenAI launches Businesses in ChatGPT in beta. Verified businesses in Business Hub can see how often ChatGPT mentions them, track clicks and topics, and edit their own prices and stock. US e-commerce and online service businesses can add a Business Agent.

ByteDance's Seedream 5.5 can edit the same image for 100 rounds while unchanged areas stay pixel-level identical. It makes more realistic photos, writes small Chinese and English text more accurately, and exports transparent PNGs. Includes two prompt templates.

Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.2 is up to 30% faster, costs $8 per million input tokens and scores 49.1% on FrontierCode 2.0, though Opus 5.5 remains the everyday pick. Includes a table for picking the right model.

The open-source Poki project has released a preview iPhone app. An AI agent reads the screen, taps, and types on the phone locally. It takes commands from the app, iMessage, Telegram, or a terminal, and it can plug into Claude Code and Codex as an MCP server. Payments, deletions, and messages need your approval in the Dynamic Island first.

Meta has released Astryx, a React design system it used internally for eight years and that powers over 13,000 apps, on GitHub under the MIT license, with themes, templates, and a hosted MCP and command-line tool for AI coding assistants. It is currently in Beta and requires React 19.

Someone has put together 10 reverse-engineering Skills and integration solutions for Agents: comprehensive analysis, scenario routing, Android interfaces, product analysis, lightweight command line, CTF, IDA assistance, JS signatures, and an all-in-one lab. We have added all of them to our site's Skill pages, with selection advice, license differences, and authorization reminders.

Every major model provider now lets a model call functions you define. What that means for a workflow you run at work, and the one setting to check in your tool.

MCP is a standard way for Agents to plug into tools and data. Here is what it changes for someone who uses workflow tools rather than builds them, and why it is on our roadmap.

Price changes on models and workflow tools arrive every few months. A short routine for finding out what it does to your daily workflows before the invoice does.
