Shane and Abhi bring you your weekly roundup of AI news! Claude Code's entire source code leaked via an exposed .map file in npm โ 512,000 lines of TypeScript, 50K GitHub stars before DMCAs started flying. What people found: Claude Code uses ~20 tools, and there's a regex that silently logs user frustration to analytics. Same week, a CMS misconfiguration exposed a draft blog post revealing Mythos and Capybara โ a new model tier above Opus described as posing "unprecedented cybersecurity risks." Fortune separately confirmed a source saying Opus 5 is "so good it poses a danger."
Claude Code auto mode shipped โ a classifier between constant interrupts and the skip-permissions flag. Computer use landed in Claude Code too, letting it open apps and click through UI from the CLI. Rate limits were tightened during peak hours to community backlash. A federal judge blocked the Pentagon's attempt to label Anthropic a supply chain risk.
A North Korea-linked group hijacked the npm account of Axios' lead maintainer and published malicious versions that stole env variables then cleaned up after themselves. With ~100M weekly downloads and Claude Code depending on Axios, the blast radius was significant. An Anthropic researcher also demoed Claude finding a zero-day in Ghost in 90 minutes. Agents are the new hackers, and the hackers have agents too.
OpenAI closed $122B at an $852B valuation. Sora is shutting down. Mistral raised $830M for an NVIDIA-powered EU data center. Redpoint's 2026 market update argues this isn't the dot-com bubble, while noting agent maturity is early, and incumbents face a structural disadvantage against AI-native startups.
Rapid fire: Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, Veo 3.1 Lite, pg-micro, Cloudflare runs Kimi K2.5, OpenCode remote sandboxes, Chroma 20B search agent, Cohere open-source transcription, Linear says issue tracking is dead, Microsoft M365 council mode, Mario Zechner's "Slow the fuck down," GLM-5.1, Google Translate live in headphones.
AI Agents Hour is a weekly livestream by Mastra CPO Shane Thomas and CTO Abhi Aiyer. Mondays 12PM Pacific.
