  • Wraps the agents you already pay for

    Munder Difflin is free and MIT-licensed, wrapping the Claude Code, Codex, and Grok CLIs — so your only cost is the subscriptions you already have. It runs as a local node on 127.0.0.1, keeping your code, keys, and context on your own machine.

  • Clones that hand off work and escalate

    Each clone learns a teammate's workflow through shared memory, then works autonomously on PR reviews, bug fixes, and docs — messaging other clones over end-to-end encryption and escalating only the calls that need a human. It's at v0.4.5 for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

  • MCP commits to a stateless core

    The official Model Context Protocol roadmap (Aug 22) confirms the July 28 spec dropped protocol-level sessions and the init handshake, so servers can scale horizontally; it also adds a server/discover call and TTL-cached list results. If you build MCP servers, target stateless now.

  • Elsewhere: your local LLM isn't as dumb as it feels

    A writeup topping Hacker News (~300 points) argues that bad defaults — sampler settings, chat templates, and quantization — are what make local models underperform, not the weights themselves. Worth a config audit before you blame the model.
