AI agent utilities for Mac and developer tools stand out today. A notch-based agent monitor, an agentic mainframe IDE, and tools for publishing agent-generated artifacts.
Whirr — AI Agent Status in Your Notch
See what your AI agent is doing without switching windows. Whirr shows live status updates from Claude Code, Cursor, and other agents right under the macOS notch with ambient animations.
display.dev — Publish Agent HTML Behind Company Auth
One command gives your agent-generated HTML and Markdown a permanent URL behind SSO. Colleagues sign in via OTP or Google/Microsoft and can leave inline comments your agent can read.
Hopper — First Agentic IDE for Mainframe/COBOL
Cursor for mainframes. Combines a real TN3270 terminal with an AI agent that can inspect datasets, edit PDS members, write JCL, submit jobs, parse JES output, and debug z/OS workflows. Cross-platform.
knooth — Screen Recording + AI Editing for Mac
Record screen, camera, mic, and iPhone/iPad directly on Mac. Built-in timeline editor with AI captions, cursor auto zoom, filler word removal, and audio cleanup. Everything runs locally.
FileFlan — P2P Encrypted File Sharing
Cross-platform file sharing that works between any devices with a browser or CLI. P2P, end-to-end encrypted, supports files up to 1GB and entire folder trees. No cookies, no logins, free.
Seer — AI-Powered Physical Product Design
An AI framework for inventors: design 3D objects, generate orthographics, write firmware, and perform patent research. "Invent" mode takes ideas from concept to ready-to-manufacture prototypes with integrated 3D printing.
Vexilo — Claude Code Field Guide
Maps the entire Claude Code ecosystem: 92 commands, 31 specialist agents, 121 skills by domain. Auto-generates CLAUDE.md for your project. Bilingual EN/CN, PWA, one-time purchase.

Mira Murati's new company drops a paradigm shift, GPT-5.5 keeps stacking benchmark wins, and Isomorphic Labs raises $2.1B for AI drug discovery. Plus, Google eyes orbital data centers with SpaceX.
Ex-OpenAI CTO Mira Murati's Thinking Machines AI unveils Interaction Models: AI systems that collaborate with humans in real-time across audio, video, and text simultaneously. The architecture processes 200ms "micro-turns" for natural conversation with interruptions and visual responsiveness built natively into the model, eliminating the turn-based bottleneck of current AI interfaces.
GPT-5.5 Achieves First-Ever ProgramBench Solve
On the new ProgramBench SWE benchmark from Facebook Research, GPT-5.5 (xhigh) becomes the first model to fully solve a task (cmatrix reimplementation), significantly outperforming Opus 4.7 across all metrics. Medium reasoning barely beats Sonnet 4.6, but higher reasoning modes deliver massive gains.
GPT-5.5 Flags Fatal Errors in ~1/3 of FrontierMath Problems
Update: Epoch reports that an AI-assisted review (initially flagged by GPT-5.5) found fatal errors in about a third of FrontierMath Tiers 1-4 problems. The model is now strong enough to audit the benchmark itself. Corrected scores pending.
Isomorphic Labs Raises $2.1B Series B for AI Drug Discovery
Demis Hassabis's AlphaFold spinoff closes a massive Series B led by Thrive Capital, with Alphabet, Temasek, MGX, and the UK Sovereign AI Fund. Funds will scale their proprietary AI drug design engine (IsoDDE) across multiple therapeutic areas.
Google in Talks to Launch Space Data Centers with SpaceX
Bloomberg reports Google is negotiating with SpaceX to put data centers in orbit. Follows Anthropic's recent SpaceX Colossus deal and orbital compute exploration. The compute race is literally going to space.
Needle: Gemini Tool Calling Distilled Into a 26M Model
Open-source 26M parameter function-calling model that runs at 6,000 tok/s prefill and 1,200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. Designed for agentic experiences on budget phones. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly, not generation.
llama-eval: Gerganov Adds Local Model Evaluation to llama.cpp
New llama-eval example lets you benchmark models locally on AIME, GSM8K, GPQA, and more. Perfect for comparing quants and fine-tunes at home.
Gemini API Leaks Agentic Model Variants Ahead of Google I/O
Agentic Gemini models spotted in the API. Likely a preview of what Google will announce at I/O this week.

Alibaba publishes a unified image generation paper, Krea teases open-sourcing their model, and HiDream-O1 gets full ComfyUI + training support.
Qwen-Image-2.0 Paper: Unified Generation + Editing
Alibaba publishes Qwen-Image-2.0 paper: an omni-capable image generation foundation model that unifies high-fidelity generation and precise image editing in a single framework. Potential game-changer for open-source image gen.
Krea 2 May Go Open Source
Krea's founder hints at open-sourcing Krea 2. If confirmed, this would be a significant addition to the open-source image generation ecosystem alongside FLUX and Chroma.
HiDream-O1 Gets ComfyUI Support + LoRA Training via AI-Toolkit
Update: HiDream-O1-Image now fully supported in ComfyUI (merged by Kijai) and Ostris's AI-Toolkit enables LoRA training. Community reports strong editing capabilities despite mixed generation quality.
Alice v1: 14B Open-Source Video Generation via Consistency Distillation
Mirage AI releases Alice v1, a 14B MoE video gen model that achieves SOTA quality through consistency distillation with score regularization. Open weights on HuggingFace.

Good crop of Mac utilities today: a free on-device AI app, a window-cycling Cmd-Tab replacement, and SideNotes gets a major update.
Snaply — Free, Private AI App for Mac
Runs AI entirely on-device using Apple's Foundation Models. Screenshot analysis, text extraction, and AI chat without sending data to any server. Free with no accounts required. 900+ downloads in early access.
Switch — Cmd-Tab That Cycles Windows, Not Apps
Lightweight alternative to AltTab (15.5k stars, ~80 settings) with a native look. Built by a CS junior at UW Madison. Free, source-available, minimal settings by design.
SideNotes 1.6 — Folding, Pinning, and Mobile Sync
Major update to the side-panel note app: collapsible note sections, pin notes and folders, new settings, plus a companion iOS app (SideNotes Mobile 1.2). From Apptorium.
Tunebar 2.0 — Local Music Player in Your Menu Bar
A Winamp-inspired menu bar music player for local files. Mini player with lyrics, playlists, and album art. Treats your music collection like a library, not a commodity. Lifetime license.
Scorpi — Docker-Like VM Platform for macOS
Lightweight VM-based development platform focused on fast developer workflows. Alternative to OrbStack/Docker for local dev environments.
