AWS Solutions Architecture Team has launched Deep Insight, an open-source multi-agent system designed for automated CSV data analysis and natural-language report generation. It systematically addresses five common challenges in production environments—agent orchestration, role-based model selection, stable operation, secure code execution, and observability—and has been validated in real-world scenarios such as LG Electronics and the re:Invent 2025 TechRecon.
Smartsheet has officially launched the general‑purpose Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, which uses a standardized protocol to enable AI agents to read and write structured data—such as project tables, rows, columns, and automations—in Smartsheet. The service is now available within the AWS ecosystem, supporting access from two types of clients: Amazon Quick, aimed at business users, and Kiro, designed for developers. This allows for natural‑language‑driven cross‑tool task updates, status synchronization, and context‑aware development.
IBM Research has introduced the ALTK-Evolve method, which leverages GPT-4.1 to automatically extract structured behavioral guidelines—such as identity verification and refund confirmation—from its own task trajectories. These guidelines are then injected into the ReAct agent system via a purely prompt-engineering approach, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of customer-service tasks without updating model weights or relying on human annotations. Its retail branch achieved a Pass⁴ score of 67.5%, ranking first on the τ²-bench leaderboard as of October 12, 2026, surpassing all state-of-the-art models and fine-tuned systems.
Release: llm-echo 0.5 I'm working towards a new LLM release, and testing PRs caused me to revisit the llm-echo debug plugin. This plugin provides a "model" which doesn't involve an LLM at all - it just repeats back the prompts that have been fed to it. The new release now updates the simulated token usage counts to take tool calls, system prompts, and reasoning tokens into account. Example usage: uvx --with llm-echo llm -m echo 'hi there' -o thinking 1 --usage Outputs: First I consider the prompt, then I decide what to say. { "prompt": "hi there", "system": "", "attachments": [], "stream": true, "previous": [] } Token usage: 2 input, 24 output Tags: llm
Release: web-edit 0.1a2 web-edit (previously) is my tiny web app for browsing and editing files in a folder. I mainly built it for editing files on different machines via Tailscale. I added a "copy to clipboard" option for both text and image data. I needed this because I was running pelican prompts on a laptop from my phone (here's DeepSeek 4.1 Flash 1017) and I wanted an easy way to copy the resulting logs into a Gist.

Research: sparqlite: SPARQL 1.1 inside SQLite, written in Rust This research task is really an experiment in running Claude Code for web in "Ultracode" mode, as described in Orchestrate subagents at scale with dynamic workflows in the Claude Code documentation. With Ultracode turned on, Claude Code makes aggressive use of dynamic workflows - it generates JavaScript that defines and coordinates a network of subagents to take on complex problems. My initial prompt was this - I meant "hit the rows directly", the word "delete" was an accidental typo on my phone: Write a SQLite extension in Rust that implants SPARQL and runs really fast because it can hit the delete rows directly This caused Claude Code for web to churn for over 12 hours. I checked in on its progress the next day and sent a sin
Reflection has released the open-source large language model Beam (501B parameters, with 23B effective activations per token), which employs a 256-expert sparse MoE architecture, supports 1M tokens of context, NVFP4/FP8 quantization, multi-level inference configuration, and on-premises deployment. All technical claims have not been independently verified, hardware requirements are high, and the community generally believes that individual users will find it difficult to afford.
Tool: Tree Appreciator Another game experiment with Claude. This one used the default Claude iPhone app (chat mode, not Claude Code mode), where I prompted Claude Opus 5.5 Max with: Build a three js game called "Tree appreciator" - it shows you two algorithmically generated trees and the game mechanics is about appreciating the differences between them. Think hard about how to make sure it is both fun and beautiful. Somewhat embarrassingly given my recent talk, I've found that telling Opus 5.5 "make sure it is fun" works uncomfortably well. In this case Claude crunched for 3 hours and 7 minutes before retuning a cosy little spot-the-difference game with music and animation and achievements that's quite compelling to play.

If the agent isn't using my diagnostics library, I could introspect and update AGENTS.md, but there's still a delta, and it'll drift. Instead, I write a pre-commit hook that checks the git diff for direct calls to observability modules that bypass my diagnostics module. Boom: fail the commit, inject a prompt telling the agent to use the diagnostics library. All of a sudden it's ten out of ten. — Geoffrey Huntley, nobody should type code by hand anymore. here's what's left.
