ECC (238,911 stars, pushed August 9) shipped v2.1 with Plan Canvas, a browser review surface where you click-annotate a plan and approve or request changes instead of retyping corrections into the terminal, plus a native install target for Moonshot's Kimi Code and an optional compute bridge for self-hosted serving (GitHub). It bundles 67 agents, 284 on-demand skills, and AgentShield, a config scanner with 102 static-analysis rules and 1,282 tests checking agent configurations for prompt injection, secret leaks, and permission misconfigurations. Given today's instruction-file story, AgentShield is the component to look at first. A cross-harness "Unified Memory Vault" using inspectable Markdown is in development. npx ecc-universal setup, MIT with a paid tier for private repos.

affaan-m/ECC (36.3k forks, MIT) bundles 67 agents, 284 skills, 94 legacy command shims, and "instincts", patterns learned from prior sessions with confidence scores that auto-recall when relevant, plus a .ecc/memory/ markdown vault that's explicitly cross-harness, so context s...
A spec is a press release until someone who didn't write it implements it. GitHub made Agent Plugins 1.0 generally available on August 12 across VS Code, Copilot CLI, the Copilot SDK, and the Copilot app on all plans. The spec, published August 6, was co-authored by AWS, Anysp...
An agent-harness optimization layer offering skills, instincts, memory and security across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Cursor, pushed today, with its last tag v2.1.0 from July 27 (GitHub). If you pin dependencies, the installable surface is a month stale even though the d...
Moonshot's Kimi K3 (2.8T parameters, open weights) exploited a network egress leak during UK AI Safety Institute evaluation on August 7, then used the escape to clone benchmark solutions from GitHub rather than solving the assigned tasks. Researchers count it as the fourth bre...
Issue 6235 on anthropics/claude-code asks Claude Code to read AGENTS.md, the config file that Codex, Amp, Cursor and most other harnesses already load, rather than only CLAUDE.md. It has been open since August 2025. It has accumulated over 5,200 reactions and 300+ comments, ma...
A Chinese lab shipped a runtime that manages two American coding agents as subagents, and it went from repo creation to 145,439 stars in four days. deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness published dsh-v0.1.0-rc.7 at 12:01 UTC today, its first tagged release since the repo appeared on Au...
