Security is front and center this week. Anthropic published a detailed breakdown of how it limits agent blast radius across its products, with a striking finding: users approved 93% of permission prompts, making human oversight unreliable at scale. Separately, GPT-5.5 exploited a real Firebase misconfiguration 70% of the time in a controlled benchmark, while most other models scored zero. On the tooling side, AnythingLLM v1.13.0 ships automatic model routing between local and cloud models, a practical cost-cutting option for teams running mixed inference setups.
