Designing tools for models is as much of an art as it is a science. It depends heavily on the model, the goal of the agent, and the environment it's operating in. Developers need to experience often, read outputs, and try new things. This post provides a useful framework for designing agents with tools that are shaped to their own abilities.

Whether you're a dev, technical writer, part of devrel, and beyond, Mintlify fits into the way you already work and helps your documentation keep pace with your product.

Data science encompasses statistics, machine learning, and data analysis. Navigating this expansive field is easier with handy cheat sheets. Unlock essential knowledge with these five must-have cheat sheets for data science professionals and enthusiasts

Cursor is moving towards helping developers build the factory that creates their software. Then agents arrived, and developers shifted to directing agents through synchronous prompt-and-response loops. That was the second era. Now a third era is arriving. It is defined by agents that can tackle larger tasks independently, over longer timescales, with less human direction.

Your AI agent's context window has two enemies: the tool definitions going in, and the raw data coming out. Cloudflare's Code Mode showed us how to compress thousands of MCP tool definitions down to near-nothing, but that fixed only half the problem. Now, Context Mode, an open-source MCP server, tackles the other half. Every Playwright snapshot, GitHub issue list, or access log that an MCP tool returns eats into your agent's working memory.

Anthropic just made it dead simple to switch to Claude from other AI providers. You don’t need to use one LLM for that specific chat! Copy a prompt into your current AI to export your preferences and context, paste the results into Claude's memory settings, and you're good to go. Works across all paid plans.

AI News:

Anthropic declined government terms it said conflicted with internal safety limits, including potential use of its models in autonomous weapons or large scale surveillance. The company argued developers should retain control over how AI systems are deployed. Meanwhile, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman confirmed cooperation with defense agencies, saying its models would follow legal safeguards and company policies.

BT Group, Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile, and nine other telecom leaders commit to open, software-defined wireless platforms designed for billions of autonomous machines. The initiative represents a shared commitment to ensure 6G infrastructure — the foundation for the world’s future connectivity — is open, intelligent, resilient and accelerates innovation and safeguards global trust.

Anthropic's Claude has dethroned OpenAI's ChatGPT in Apple's App Store. The sudden surge in rankings is almost certainly due to public backlash at a recent decision by OpenAI to work with the Department of War to deploy AI without restrictions on mass domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons.

Perplexity open-sourced the embedding AI models powering its search results, outperforming Google and Alibaba rivals while cutting storage needs by up to 32x.

Google is building a new data center in Pine Island, Minnesota, that will be powered by 1.9 gigawatts of clean energy from wind and solar. It will use a 300-megawatt iron-air battery with a 30-gigawatt-hour capacity and 100-hour duration. Iron-air batteries store electricity by making rust and then reversing the rusting process to release energy when needed.
