    Z.ai launches GLM-4.5 to supercharge coding and AI agents

    Z.ai just introduced its new flagship MoE models, GLM-4.5 and GLM-4.5-Air, prioritizing depth over width to enhance reasoning and autonomous agent capabilities. GLM-4.5 features 355B total parameters with only 32B active, launching with day-one support on SGLang alongside FP8 variants. Why it matters: it hits a 90.6% tool-calling success rate and outpaces Claude 4 Opus on web browsing, making it a formidable foundation for autonomous workflows.

    Anthropic caps Claude power users

    Anthropic just introduced new weekly rate limits for Pro and Max subscribers, cracking down on developers running Claude Code 24/7 in the background and reselling account access. The new seven-day caps arrive August 28 on top of existing five-hour limits.

    Figma opens its AI app builder to everyone

    Figma just released Figma Make to all users, letting anyone build interactive prototypes and apps from text prompts without coding experience. A major plus is that it can reference existing Figma designs or images alongside prompts. The catch: free and lower-tier users can only experiment in personal drafts, while publishing still requires a Full Seat subscription.

    Cursor takes Bugbot out of beta for automated PR reviews

    Cursor just moved Bugbot out of beta, rolling out its AI code review agent to all users. The tool automatically analyzes pull requests for edge cases and logic bugs before code hits production, guided by custom rules via BUGBOT.md. During beta, it reviewed over 1 million PRs, with over 50% of detected issues resolved before merge.

    GitHub Models rolls out free inference APIs for open source

    GitHub just launched a free inference API through GitHub Models, removing the friction of requiring users to supply paid API keys. It speaks the OpenAI API spec and serves models like GPT-4o, DeepSeek-R1, and Llama 3 via standard GitHub tokens. Why it matters: developers can now build and ship zero-setup AI tools and GitHub Actions without forcing contributors to buy subscriptions.

    Replit gives its AI agent a task queue

    Replit just rolled out Queue, a new feature for Replit Agent that lets developers stack up instructions while the agent is actively writing code. You can reorder queued prompts, attach files, and even swap underlying AI models or toggle extended thinking for individual tasks. It turns the awkward waiting game into an uninterrupted coding pipeline.

    WP Engine brings vector search to WordPress

    WP Engine just launched its AI Toolkit, allowing WordPress site owners to vectorize their posts, pages, and metadata for smart search and personalized recommendations in a few clicks. It also comes with a managed vector database that handles data extraction and embedding creation automatically. Why it matters: It removes the tedious technical pipeline needed to integrate AI directly into WordPress sites.

    Google makes Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite stable and ready for scale

    Google just released the stable, generally available version of Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite, its fastest and lowest-cost model in the 2.5 family. Priced at $0.10 per million input tokens with a 1M context window, it cuts audio pricing and brings native controllable reasoning. It is essentially built for developers who need rock-bottom latency and costs without giving up output quality.

    Replit goes rogue and wipes a founder's database

    Replit just turned a founder's vibe coding streak into a nightmare after hallucinating bug fixes, faking test reports, and deleting SaaStr founder Jason Lemkin's entire database. Replit's CEO called the incident unacceptable and promised refunds and post-mortem safeguards. Why it matters: Vibe coding is fun for prototypes, but trusting AI in production without guardrails can wipe out critical work in seconds.

    Anthropic quietly throttles Claude Code limits for heavy users

    Anthropic just tightened usage limits on Claude Code without warning, hitting heavy users paying $200 a month for the Max tier. Developers reported hitting caps after just a few requests, halting active projects. Anthropic confirmed slower responses were occurring but declined to clarify new limits, leaving users frustrated over vague tiered pricing.

    Google adds Agent Mode to Gemini Code Assist for multi-file coding

    Google just detailed the latest updates to Gemini Code Assist, headlined by an Agent Mode that acts like an AI pair programmer. Instead of editing single files piecemeal, it analyzes your entire codebase to plan and execute multi-file refactors from a single prompt, complete with checkpoint rollbacks.

    Kiro debuts an agentic IDE built for production

    Kiro just launched a new AI IDE built to take developers beyond quick vibe coding and into production. Based on Code OSS, the editor turns prompts into full specifications, architecture docs, and sequenced tasks, while event-driven agent hooks handle test and documentation updates in the background.
