New in Claude Code: Remote Control. Kick off a task in your terminal and pick it up from your phone while you take a walk or join a meeting. Claude keeps running on your machine, and you can control the session from the Claude app or https://x.com/claudeai/status/2026418433911603668

We’ve rolled out a new auto-memory feature. Claude now remembers what it learns across sessions — your project context, debugging patterns, preferred approaches — and recalls it later without you having to write anything down.

Anthropic brothers, as much as I love your models; you have distillied the whole internet, wikipedia and shit-tons of books. Distilling your models is only fair game…. Are your scrappers not using residental proxies and respecting robots.txt or are they “”malicious”” ?

Anthropic just caught DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax running 24,000 fake accounts to extract Claude’s capabilities for their own models. Over 16M (!) exchanges total. Anthropic: “”rapid advances”” from Chinese labs depend significantly on capabilities extracted from U.S. models
https://x.com/TheRundownAI/status/2026019722211279356

Anthropic just exposed the real vulnerability in AI: it’s not the models, it’s the training data pipeline. Three Chinese AI labs used 24,000 fake accounts to query Claude 16 million times, feeding the responses back into their own models. This technique, called distillation,

Detecting and preventing distillation attacks \ Anthropic https://www.anthropic.com/news/detecting-and-preventing-distillation-attacks

Distillation can be legitimate: AI labs use it to create smaller, cheaper models for their customers. But foreign labs that illicitly distill American models can remove safeguards, feeding model capabilities into their own military, intelligence, and surveillance systems.

Also interesting is where models still make errors in our minimal security test case benchmark. Sonnet models, for example, often fail because they inadvertently reveal confidential info, even when told not to (and even with space to think in private)

@bcherny @trq212 OK, so this is INSANE. 1189 calls to Claude. 100% nerfed down to Sonnet 4.5 in the last 30 days despite Claude Max. I’m so happy I have LangSmith for observability. There could be a bug on how this is reported. But right now, this is really bad… cc: @hwchase17 @Vtrivedy10

CLIs are super exciting precisely because they are a “”legacy”” technology, which means AI agents can natively and easily use them, combine them, interact with them via the entire terminal toolkit. E.g ask your Claude/Codex agent to install this new Polymarket CLI and ask for any

This is maybe obvious but I think a lot of the reason people write complicated CLAUDE md files, skills, fancy custom wrappers is not because they meaningfully help but because they’re unsettled and grasping for ways to add value to a dev workflow where the defaults work fine.

Agree, opus 4.5/6 & particularly codex 5.3 xhigh has legitimately shifted my use of agents so now most things in my work that _could_ be done in a cli is now almost always delegated to them, including long running tasks, monitoring output & intervening if a run is failing, etc
