If you've written Claude Code skills with context: fork in the frontmatter, go check them right now. As of the July 22 release, /code-review runs as a background subagent, and any skill declaring context: fork runs in the background by default (release notes). The opt-out is b...
Satya Nadella said companies routing everything through a single proprietary lab may not survive. His argument: you hand that lab your most sensitive business context, and the lab can turn it against you as a competitor. His prescription is an orchestration layer — keep the ha...
