    OKF – the Markdown spec for humans and AI

    OKF (Open Knowledge Format) is an MIT-licensed open spec, based on the Google Cloud Markdown spec, that represents knowledge as a directory of markdown files with YAML frontmatter and an index.md entry point. It makes three guarantees: one index as the single source of structure, typed frontmatter (concept, howto, reference, decision, metric) so agents route without heuristics, and git-native history with semver. Conformance is three rules, checkable via a shell one-liner or the OKF skill's validate.sh, with a zero-backend browser validator described as coming soon.

    Type in Any Task. Get the Best AI Model for It

    Task Router offers 268 measured tasks that can be called by task alias (e.g. taskrouter/<task-id>), routing each request to the model that fits a chosen priority—cheapest, balanced or most accurate—among those clearing the task's quality floor. Users can describe their own task to find matching tasks and evidence or request a benchmark, and each task shows what to send and what is returned. The methodology freezes a dataset, defines a task-specific rubric, runs qualified candidates from all four tiers on the holdout with an LLM judge, and joins measured token profiles with published pricing.

    Show HN: APC Playground – Stop AI agents from modifying your API tool calls

    APC Playground is a browser-based lab for writing policy expressions in a restricted grammar (policy.apc) that evaluate API tool calls, with a local runtime and no network requests. It shows evaluation results, checks, and an exportable evidence record, and notes that the evidence digest is a content-integrity checksum rather than a signature or attestation, and that the lab does not establish production enforcement.

    Vibe-Shield – Static security scanner for AI-generated Next.js/Supabase code

    Vibe-Shield is a zero-dependency, offline static security scanner published as @vibefoundry/vibe-shield, aimed at vulnerabilities common in agent-written code such as unauthenticated mutation routes, SQL injection, IDOR, exposed service-role keys and missing Row Level Security. It ships 91 signatures across eight categories (79 code rules plus 12 agent-integrity rules via audit-skills), and can generate an agent-ready fix prompt, SARIF/GitHub output for CI gating, and an Agent Skill plus MCP server via `init`. The README states the scanner is read-only by default, that grades apply only to the rules and files examined and are not a security certification, and that the npm commands may lag the v2.0.0 source tree until a release is published.

    Send contracts for e-signature from n8n, with TurboDocx, Slack approval and SharePoint filing

    This guest post by TurboDocx CEO Nicolas Fry walks through an n8n workflow that reads contracts marked "Ready to send" from an Excel table, generates the agreement from a Word template via the TurboDocx node, and routes it to Slack for Approve & send / Reject approval. Approved contracts are sent for e-signature with signature and date fields placed at template anchors, and a TurboDocx Trigger then downloads the executed PDF, uploads it to SharePoint, marks the row Signed and posts to Slack. The post covers setup, template preparation, end-to-end testing, troubleshooting and possible swaps such as CRM triggers or Teams approvals.

    AI Promoted Everybody. Architecture as Truth (AAT) Is the New Job

    PuglieseWeb founder Emanuele Pugliese argues that AI now handles most production work—drafting scenarios, docs and pull requests—so deep end-to-end understanding of the product has become the entry requirement rather than a senior specialism. He defines Architecture as Truth (AAT), a practice in which versioned architecture documents (decisions, contracts, behaviours and plan) are the single source of truth that people decide through and AI agents build from, held up by five principles and four rules for agents. He illustrates it with a 30–31 October reminder feature built by an agent, where the owner caught an unspecified phone number in the reminder text, and notes SystemDox, his tool for serving the same documents to people and agents over MCP, is in private preview.

    Reverse Engineering with AI: Your Decompiler Can Lie to You

    A walkthrough using XRef 0.4.0 on a synthetic stripped C/assembly program shows how serialized field names can be traced to offsets and candidate writer functions, but that 2,000 uncalled decoy functions write the same offsets and earn the same 40-point write score as the real function, which only ranks first via a 10-point call-graph bonus from sharing main as a caller. The article stresses checking every conclusion against machine instructions and call sites, distinguishing addresses from loaded values, and treating an access range as not a struct declaration. It also notes that a historical XRef reproducer produced pseudo-C returning 99 where the machine code returns 4, and that empty or truncated results must report coverage limits rather than be read as proof.

    GoLand's Profiler Now Works with AI Agents – The JetBrains Blog

    GoLand 2026.3 lets AI agents use its built-in profiler through a bundled goland-profiler skill and MCP tools, so an agent can launch the app with the profiler, pick and capture suitable profiles, read the results, and point to the responsible code. The workflow is tested with Claude Code, Codex, and Junie, and captured profiles appear in the profiler session and Recent profiles in the Go Optimization tool window. Limitations include that the profiler cannot attach to an already running process and short-lived programs leave too little time to capture useful data.

    Serverless MCP server for AI agent data lake access on Amazon ECS Fargate

    Amazon's North America Sort Center team built a serverless Model Context Protocol (MCP) server on Amazon ECS Fargate that acts as a centralized, agent-agnostic gateway between AI agents and the enterprise data lake. Adding a dataset requires only a metadata JSON file, which the pipeline indexes into Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases, while Amazon Cognito authentication, SELECT-only Athena tools, Bedrock Guardrails, and CloudWatch logging provide centralized controls. The architecture separates the tool layer from the agent layer so any MCP-compatible client can share the same tools and access controls in a multi-tenant environment.

    Taxonomy of agentic primitives in AWS Quick

    AWS Quick's team describes a taxonomy of agentic primitives built from four questions—When, What, Who, and How—covering triggers (human-initiated, agent-delegated, scheduled, event-driven), agents as persistent learning actors with instructions, capabilities, and learned context, and capabilities spanning tools, skills, and workflows. The post argues skills and workflows retain value independent of model improvements, with skills able to crystallize into workflows and workflows dissolve back into skills, and illustrates how a single request like a daily Slack digest can be met at different points on a confidence contract.

    Govern AI agent access with Okta Cross App Access and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore – Part 1

    This AWS post describes using Okta Cross App Access (XAA) as the governance plane and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Identity as the execution plane so an AI agent can act on behalf of signed-in users, with Okta deciding which agent may act for which user and AgentCore redeeming Okta's single-use ID-JAG for a short-lived access token. It walks through registering the agent in Okta, configuring the credential provider and workload identity, enforcing per-user authority via the groups claim in MCP servers, and reports measured results such as revocation taking effect in about 1 second and AgentCore Identity adding about 0.6 seconds to a roughly 30-second request.
