CopilotKit announces Open Bot Take control: mid-task you can take over the bot’s live browser to click, type, or sign in, then hand it back so the agent resumes where it stopped. Fully open-source at github.com/CopilotKit/openbot. Aimed at browser-agent flows that need human auth or critical UI steps.
Open-source magnitudedev/magnitude (Apache-2.0, ~3.1k stars) is a local inference server that profiles your hardware, recommends fitting local models, then downloads, tunes, and runs them — plugged into Codex, Claude Code, Cline, and Hermes. Models load on demand and unload when memory is tight, so coding agents can use local models without a separate stack.
Developer @midudev highlights open-source RTK (github.com/rtk-ai/rtk): it intercepts terminal command output and compresses it before it reaches coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Codex, claiming about 70% token savings with automatic operation. Aimed at cutting token cost from verbose shell/log context in agent loops.
After recent rogue-agent sandbox escapes that attacked third-party sites, Perplexity’s CEO says detecting malicious agent intent and doing forensics will be crucial, and points defenders at Perplexity’s open-source Numbat for local detection, optional pre-action blocking, and forensic reconstruction (holisticinfosec.io/post/numbat/).
