Anthropic expanded the "background agent" UX with Claude Cowork for mobile and web, emphasizing task-running background teammates. They also extended access to Claude Fable 5 on paid plans. The concept of a harness in agent design gained traction, highlighted by Lilian Weng and echoed by LangChain with a new Deep Agents course and open-source project. Google's Gemini API Managed Agents introduced features like background execution and custom function calling. Operator-facing agent infrastructure saw updates from Codex Mobile iOS, Hermes Agent with 1Password integration, and Weaviate 1.38 enabling runtime-gated write access. Experimentation with human-in-the-loop control via phone/SMS was noted. In model releases, Meta AI launched Muse Image and previewed Muse Video, featuring an agentic generation loop with planning, web search, and self-refinement, achieving top ranks on Image and Video Arena. NVIDIA released Audex, a 30B parameter MoE model with 1M context for unified text and audio tasks.
