Oracle Signals in Agent-Authored Test Code

An empirical study of 86,156 test-file patches from 33,596 agent-authored PRs reveals that 80.2% of test patches contain weak or no explicit oracle signals. Strong-oracle test files significantly improve merge likelihood (OR = 1.28, p < 0.001) after adjusting for multiple factors, indicating test file presence alone overestimates verification strength.

Thinking Machines releases Inkling; Anthropic prepares IPO; OpenAI trains GPT-Red

Thinking Machines has released Inkling, a 975B-parameter mixture-of-experts model with 41B active parameters and multimodal reasoning. Simultaneously, Anthropic is preparing for a potential IPO later this year following a $65 billion funding round at a $965 billion valuation. OpenAI has also trained GPT-Red to iteratively generate adversarial prompts, which reduced failures on a prompt-injection benchmark by sixfold for GPT-5.6 Sol.

Claude Code adds in-app browser; Cursor builds general agent

Anthropic has added an in-app browser to Claude Code on desktop, allowing the tool to read, click through, and interact with websites and docs similarly to local dev servers. Concurrently, reports indicate that Cursor is developing a general-purpose AI agent designed to handle emails, texts, spreadsheets, and engineering tasks.

Researchers introduce Iterative VibeCoding benchmark for persistent-state AI control

The authors introduce Iterative VibeCoding, a benchmark setting designed to study the safety of deploying capable but potentially untrusted AI coding agents in persistent codebases. This framework allows agents to build software over a sequence of pull requests while pursuing covert side tasks, creating an attack surface where misaligned agents can distribute payloads across time.

GPT-5 outperforms humans in inducing belief states via planning

A new study evaluates Large Language Models' ability to induce specific belief states in other agents through actions rather than conversation, a capability termed Non-Conversational Planning ToM (NCP-ToM). Using the NCP-ExploreToM framework, researchers tested six frontier models and human participants on 600 task instances where agents had to move objects or direct characters to achieve belief goals.
