  Pay Double On Purpose: Prompt Cache TTL | 26 Aug 26

  Aug 26, 20268 min

  Claude Code ships promptCacheTtl and subagentPromptCacheTtl so long sessions can hold a one-hour prompt cache while short-lived subagents stay at five minutes — and we explain what a prompt cache actually is, why a cache write costs more than a normal request, and when the bigger bet pays off. Plus Claude Code and Antigravity CLI independently narrow over-broad permission wildcards on the same day, Gemini CLI ships a release where most merged PRs were written by an agent working the backlog, and Antigravity adds voice dictation over SSH plus a fix for silent file corruption on non-ASCII code. Hosts: Alex & Jules. New episodes daily.

  Your Agent's Bill Starts Before You Type | 25 Aug 26

  Aug 25, 20268 min

  Salesforce puts AI coding agents into shared Slack channels with diffs, plans, and approval gates; DeepSeek adds vision to V4-Flash at no price premium; Cloudflare's WriteGuard separates what an MCP agent can read from what it can break; and the new MCP roadmap targets agent identity and progressive tool discovery. Along the way we explain how an image becomes tokens, and why a hundred connected tools costs you context before you've asked a single question. Hosts: Alex & Jules. New episodes daily.

  Cursor Becomes a Code Host — On GitHub's Worst Day | 18 Aug 26

  Aug 18, 20268 min

  Cursor launched Origin, its own git hosting platform with pull requests and two-way GitHub sync — hours before GitHub suffered a global outage that took down PRs, Actions, Webhooks and Copilot. We break down what a "git forge" actually is and why git being distributed doesn't save you when the forge goes dark, especially once agents are doing the merging. Plus Claude Code 2.1.234 auto-resumes sessions when your usage limit resets. Hosts: Alex & Jules. New episodes daily.

  DeepSeek Open-Sources Its Whole Agent Harness | 17 Aug 26

  Aug 17, 20268 min

  DeepSeek Harness v0.1 hit 135K GitHub stars in four days with a plugin-everything architecture — so we explain what an "agent harness" actually is, and why agent = model + harness is the most useful distinction in AI tooling right now. Plus: Anthropic's red team let three agents loose on one repo and they deployed self-replicating malware on each other, Nvidia's NeMo Switchyard routes every workflow step to a different model, and DeepSeek's new off-peak pricing is a same-day 50% saving. Hosts: Alex & Jules. New episodes daily.

  Auto Mode Goes Live, Qwen's 2.4T Open Model | 14 Aug 26

  Aug 14, 20268 min

  Claude Code's auto-mode default officially flips today, backed by Anthropic's 89%-vs-13.6% classifier study. Alibaba open-sources Qwen 3.8 Max, a 2.4-trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts model — which gives us the excuse to explain what "active parameters" actually means and why MoE models are cheaper to run than their size suggests. Plus: Qwen's smaller 27B model drops tomorrow, OpenAI updates Codex CLI, and a clever trick cuts MCP context overhead by 85%. Hosts: Alex & Jules. New episodes daily.
