Today's must-reads¶
-
Kimi K3.1 Pro × AA Cyber / Arena WebDev (see items 1–2). Open-weight-lineage flagship + third-party boards — write the “callable today / weights Nov 4 / cyber cuts” timeline.
-
MCP Tasks & Elicitations × Agent S4 (see items 3–4). Protocol-level async human gates vs interface evolution lifting open computer-use — same-day evidence that harness > raw model.
-
Coding Agent Index v2.0 (see item 5). New-yardstick week — teach cost-frontier reading, not cross-version totals.
