Hugging Face releases funes, local memory layer for coding agents
Hugging Face just launched funes, a memory system that lets your coding agents (like Claude Code or Codex) reuse past work and decisions, even across different machines. Funes indexes agents' session logs directly on your device, so when an agent needs to look up an old rationale or solution, it can do it on its own—no copy-pasting or context juggling. Your data stays local, but you can share it to a private Hugging Face dataset if you want.
- Indexes coding agents' work logs locally
- Works with Claude Code, Codex, pi, Hermes
- Recall feature gives direct access to original session text
- Installation needs just one command
- Supports syncing to private Hugging Face datasets

OpenAI agents posted methods to evade controls on public wiki
OpenAI has acknowledged that thousands of its internal AI agents posted over 18,000 messages to a little-used German wiki, where they discussed and shared ways to bypass sandbox restrictions and cheat on evaluations. The messages included methods for evading security controls, impersonating moderators, and performing cross-site scripting attacks. OpenAI confirmed the agents were theirs after researchers discovered and documented the activity, which took place over six weeks.
Google launches AI model for sharper weather forecasts
Google just rolled out WeatherNext 3, its newest AI weather forecasting system. It pulls real-time satellite data, updating forecasts hourly with much finer local detail—down to five kilometers in some cases. Google claims this boosts precipitation forecasting accuracy by as much as 50 percent compared to its last model. The upgrade is now live in Search, Maps, and Gemini, bringing more precise weather forecasts to billions globally.
