    Qwen Code turns the coding agent into a long-lived service, letting browser, editor, SDK and automation clients share one session

    QwenLM has released Qwen Code, an open-source AI coding agent whose entry points span the terminal, IDE plugins, a desktop app, a Web UI, SDKs and chat integrations including Telegram, DingTalk, WeChat, WeCom and Feishu. It ships with Auto-Memory, Skills, SubAgents and MCP, plus Agent Teams, Agent Arena and Dynamic Workflows, some marked experimental or opt-in. A daemon mode lets browser, editor, SDK and automation clients share one agent session, and clients can reconnect to active sessions.

    Cloudflare open-sources Kitesurf: an agent browser you can run on your own Workers account instead of managed APIs

    Cloudflare has open-sourced Kitesurf, its stateless browser for AI agents, on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 license, so developers can read the code, run it locally, modify it, and deploy their own instance to their own Cloudflare Workers account. Kitesurf runs entirely on Workers, parsing HTML, applying CSS, executing page JavaScript and rendering screenshots without a browser container, and it supports the Chrome DevTools Protocol so clients such as Puppeteer can connect. Cloudflare says the goal is a lightweight browser for agents that uses less CPU and memory than a full browser like Chromium and scales on demand, while noting the project is under heavy development.

  3. Jetson DLA inference moves into Python: cuda-bindings 13.3.0 exposes cuDLA so GPU and DLA stages queue on one stream

    NVIDIA released the cuda.bindings.cudla module in cuda-bindings 13.3.0, a thin Cython-generated Python layer over the cuDLA C++ runtime that lets Jetson AGX Orin applications create DLA devices, load networks, register buffers and submit inference without writing C++. The module targets hybrid mode, where DLA tasks are enqueued on a CUDA stream alongside GPU preprocessing and postprocessing, and the same API applies on RTX Spark. The release notes that standalone mode, which needs NvSci buffers and sync primitives, is not supported in this version.

    Gemini connects to Google Wallet: US users can ask the chatbot to read spending and build budgets

    Google has added Google Wallet to Gemini's list of connected apps under Personal Intelligence, so all Gemini app users in the U.S. can now tag @Google Wallet in a chat to ask about personal finance, budgeting and subscriptions, and Gemini generates dynamic charts of cash flow, asset allocation and budgets from that context. Users can optionally link credit cards and bank accounts to Wallet through Plaid for deeper analysis. Gemini can only read account information; it cannot move, manage or invest money, and the connection can be turned on or off at any time.

    Personal Agent Protocol Poppy ships 1.0: every Shopify store now publishes a Poppy file, and Meta's Muse looks for it first

    Personal Agent Protocol, or Poppy, has moved from draft to version 1.0, defining how personal agents connect with companies through business agents, websites and APIs while reusing existing standards such as MCP, OpenAPI and UCP, with OAuth letting customers control what an agent may do. Shopify has enabled Poppy for every merchant on its platform, with each store automatically publishing a Poppy file and needing no extra implementation, and Meta's agent Muse now looks for Poppy first on every site it visits. Design partners have grown from the initial group to more than 100, with Mercury, Synchrony and Turkish Airlines already live in specific scenarios.

    Tencent open-sources LoopForge: turning one-off coding-agent runs into team workflows with approval gates

    Tencent has open-sourced LoopForge, a self-hosted workspace where a team describes a requirement to Main Bot in chat and it opens a Docker sandbox, checks out repositories, delegates to project roles and opens the PR. Previously, asking a coding agent to fix code left the result dependent on that run, which might skip the plan, forget tests or review its own code. LoopForge saves a proven way of working as an SOP, a standard workflow of agents, scripts and human gates, so later requirements follow the same stages and checks, with approvals, node status and tool traces kept in one place.

    Buzz puts humans and AI agents in the same rooms, signing messages, patches and approvals into one event log

    Buzz is a self-hostable workspace where humans and AI agents share the same rooms, and each room is fixed by its URL. It writes messages, reactions, workflow steps, review approvals and git events as signed events in a single log, so people and processes share one identity model and one audit trail. Agents hold their own keys, channel memberships and audit records, and can open repos, send patches, review code, run workflows, edit canvases, orchestrate other agents and join voice huddles.

  8. AG-UI brings agents into user-facing apps: about 16 standard event types unify both ends and work over any event transport

    AG-UI is an open, lightweight, event-based protocol that standardizes how AI agents connect to user-facing applications. Previously there was no shared convention for wiring an agent into an interface; AG-UI has agent backends emit events matching one of about 16 standard event types during execution and accept a few simple inputs, while a middleware layer adapts to any event transport such as SSE, WebSockets or webhooks. It grew out of CopilotKit's early partnership with LangChain and CrewAI, ships under the MIT license, and comes with a reference HTTP implementation and a default connector.

    LangChain raises $300M Series C at a $3B valuation, with LangSmith already running and governing agents for over 7,000 organizations

    LangChain announced a $300M Series C at a $3B valuation, led by existing investor CapitalG with new investors GIC and DFJ Growth participating. The company ties the funding to its goal of letting every company own its intelligence, anchored in LangSmith, a framework-agnostic platform for running, improving and governing agents. LangChain says more than 7,000 organizations already rely on LangSmith, and that Workday cut the time to deploy a new agent from five months to under a day.

    ChatGPT Wallet goes live: agents pay without seeing real card numbers, and every purchase needs a biometric check

    OpenAI released ChatGPT Wallet, which lets AI agents complete purchases on a user's behalf without access to the user's real card details. A user adds a card once, reviews the items, total and selected card before each purchase, and approves it with a security check such as Face ID or a fingerprint scan; the payment network then issues a payment token that substitutes for the real card information. Built with American Express, Mastercard and Visa, the wallet initially runs through dots for US ChatGPT Pro subscribers and preserves existing card rewards and protections for eligible disputes.
