Le Chonk open weights × OpenAI monitoring (Daily items 1–2). Self-host trillion-param shelf vs training-side misalignment pipelines — good “deploy checklist + alert SLA” foil. Status: ready; Mistral/OpenAI verified.
-
Jules wind-down × OpenCode on Claude subscription (Daily item 3). Coding-agent entry consolidation + third-party harness riding a sub — two money/compliance how-tos. Status: ready; Jules/OpenCode verified; ToS caveat required.
-
Claude 128MB / Ultra loses 5-hour cap (Daily item 4). Hits image-heavy sessions and long coding friction. Status: ready; docs + official post verified.
