An mcp rest api bridge works by reading your API’s OpenAPI spec at runtime and translating each operation into an MCP tool. You keep the REST API exactly as it is, add a proxy or gateway in front of it, and point your agent at the MCP endpoint. Nothing in the backend is rewritten or redeployed. That is the short answer, and it is genuinely accurate — with one important caveat that the marketing pages bury. “No code changes” describes the API, not the project. You still own a configuration surface, an authentication decision, and a curation judgment call. The teams that get burned are the ones who treat auto-conversion as the finished deliverable instead of step one. ...

Claude Code officially ships native AGENTS.md support as of release 2.1.277 (September 18, 2026), automatically reading instructions from an AGENTS.md file when no CLAUDE.md is on the path. The feature arrives roughly 13 months after the most-upvoted issue in the repository was filed, and closes a saga that once saw the Shopify CEO publicly threaten to block the tool. The Timeline: From Most-Upvoted Issue to CEO Threat to Native Support The fight for AGENTS.md support in Claude Code is one of the defining public stories of the 2026 AI coding landscape. It started quietly on August 21, 2025, when a user filed issue #6235 asking Anthropic to make Claude Code read the cross-vendor instruction file. Over the following year, that single request became the most-upvoted issue in the entire anthropics/claude-code repository, accumulating roughly 4,667 to 5,026 thumbs-up reactions and 361 to 384 comments. ...

only-cli (oc) 2026 Guide: Turn Any Website into a CLI Tailored for AI Agents Agent tools waste most of their token budget on raw HTML markup that a model can never use. only-cli (oc) solves this by distilling any website into a compact, numbered CLI view that AI agents can drive by number, cutting token use by about 45x to 118x versus raw HTML. This guide covers what oc is, how to install it, wire it into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Copilot, and how to handle logins and bot blocks safely. ...

If you run more than one Claude Code session at a time, you have probably played human courier: switching between terminals, copying a finding from one window, and pasting it into another. Claude Code session messaging, shipped in v2.1.224 on August 7, 2026, removes that copy-paste loop. One session can now tell another itself — by name — with a plain-text note that arrives at the other session’s next tool round. This guide explains what cross-session messaging is, how to use it, what it can and cannot do, and how to coordinate parallel worktrees without becoming the messenger. ...

AGENTS.md has become the de-facto standard instruction file for AI coding agents, and the demand for native support across agent tools is now the strongest portability signal in the developer-tooling market. As of 2026, over 60,000 open-source projects on GitHub ship an AGENTS.md, 23 tools read it natively, and the largest unmet feature request in the entire Claude Code tracker is precisely “Support AGENTS.md” — with more than 5,000 reactions. This guide explains what AGENTS.md is, why it won the format war, which tools support it natively, the gaps that remain, and what you should demand when adding AGENTS.md support to your own agent tool. ...

Claude’s verbose output — long caveat lists, hedging, verification dumps, and “token vomit” — wastes paid tokens and human reading time every time you copy a reply into a PR, doc, or commit. Vomit fixes this by piping Claude’s message through a separate, local LLM that rewrites it into concise prose before it ever reaches your screen. The cleanup pass runs on your own machine for zero hosted-token cost, and measured over 100 agent iterations it cut downstream token waste by roughly 20%. This guide shows you the root cause, how to set up Vomit, and why separating the reasoning model from the style model is a pattern worth stealing. ...

Rungraph is an open-source, zero-instrumentation tool that reads the agent session transcripts already on your disk and renders them as interactive graphs. With a single npx rungraph command, it visualizes the orchestrator, subagents, and tool calls of any Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, opencode, or Cursor run — then lets you ask, in plain language through an MCP server, “what happened?” and lights up the exact nodes the answer refers to. ...

A DSH Lark bridge is a plugin that connects DeepSeek Harness (DSH) coding agents to Feishu or Lark group chats, so you can send a task from your phone, DM, or a group and the bridge runs it in the correct Harness project and session. You do not need a public IP, domain, webhook, or NAT tunnel: the bridge keeps a WebSocket long connection to the Feishu/Lark Open Platform and relays tool-call approvals, questions, files, and status updates back to a single native card. ...

The DeepSeek Harness plugin hub is a decentralized, source-backed marketplace where every capability of the harness — models, tools, skills, sessions, sandboxes, storage, loops, scheduling, and the UI — is a swappable plugin. It grew from 0 to 7,740 plugins in under three weeks, making it one of the fastest-growing plugin ecosystems ever built. This guide explains how the hub works, how to install and publish plugins, and what to check before you trust one. ...

A project wiki is a durable, versioned set of instructions and context that AI coding agents load into every session, so they never start from zero. The open AGENTS.md format — used by over 60,000 open-source projects — and Claude Code’s CLAUDE.md files give agents a predictable place to find build steps, conventions, and architecture. Because these files live in git, they are traceable: every change is recorded, reviewable, and honest. This guide shows you how to build one. ...
