Campfire is a free, open-source, self-hosted tool that runs Claude Code, Codex, Goose, Aider and OpenHands side by side in one browser tab. Each agent gets its own git worktree, with permission voting (30 second timer, majority rules), session replay, cross-backend agent races and a shared semantic memory layer. Installs with bunx the-campfire. The post also compares Clawboo, Conductor, Vibe Kanban and Crystl.

ERC draft "Independent Simulation Result" (STVA) defines a canonical, content-addressed SimulationResult (success, gasUsed, returnData, stateDiffHash, logsHash, snapshotId, resultHash) that any wallet, hardware device or verifier can recompute from the same VerificationPayload and state snapshot. It targets compromised-frontend and UI/calldata-mismatch attacks, and defines Basic, Standard and Strict compliance levels. Open questions are stateDiff encoding, prestate proofs and binding to capability tokens.

DBHub, a database MCP server, had a read-only mode bypass in its SQL check. The check treated every `--` as a comment, but MySQL only starts a comment when whitespace follows it. A hidden write statement could therefore still run, and a prompt injection could trigger it. Fixed in version 0.22.6. Replies say enforcement belongs in database grants and that parser tests need to be dialect-specific.

ERC-8478 is a draft Ethereum standard that binds the payTo address in an x402 payment requirement to the seller's ERC-8004 agent identity. A payer compares payTo with the registered agentWallet, or accepts an EIP-712 payee delegation signed by it, and checks that the origin is listed in the registration file. On Robinhood Chain, 5 of 5,575 x402-responding agents had payTo equal to agentWallet (28 October 2026).

Ethereum Magicians discussion of a draft ERC, the Swarm AI Framework. It proposes a registry and charter model in which accounts, including autonomous agents, form, bound, run and dissolve purpose-bound swarms. A hashed on-chain SwarmSpec (roles with eligibility modules, phases, decision authorities, fallback timers) is paired with an off-chain Swarm Pack charter. Two-sided signed admission (EIP-712 / ERC-1271), challenge and substitution, and minor versus material amendments are included. Phase posture is a coordinate: executed boundary and admission, plus declared payoff, topology and coordination terms from a write-once vocabulary. This lets cooperation, competition, tenders, debate, ensembles and pipelines be expressed. It integrates with ERC-8004 agent identity and ERC-8436 decision adapters. The reference implementation is a non-upgradeable registry with five eligibility modules and a task-tender adapter. The post asks reviewers specific design questions on vocabulary, amendment classes, roster snapshots and digest kinds.

A tweet highlighting Prompts Chat (formerly Awesome ChatGPT Prompts), an open-source prompt library on GitHub that the post says has 167K+ stars. It works across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other models. The post lists a CLI, an MCP server, a Claude Code plugin and self-hosting with custom branding and auth, all free. It is worth cataloguing as a pointer to a widely used prompt collection that now plugs into coding-agent and MCP workflows.

Ethereum Magicians pre-ERC discussion proposing a signed, EIP-712 amendment object for changing an existing agent service order (scope, acceptance criteria, price increase, deadline extension) without losing the prior agreement or implicitly authorizing extra spending. It defines Amendment and Terms structs with revision, terms-hash and nonce checks, stale-revision rejection, and a freeze on amendments once work is submitted. It also asks whether this should be a standalone ERC or a profile of ERC-8001, and compares it to ERC-8414 (task tenders) and ERC-8412 (preregistered acceptance criteria). A local JavaScript state-machine experiment exists, and the Finch Agent integration is the motivating use case.

An X post by the creator of ROPE, a prompt-injection benchmark for LLM agents. It uses two news items to argue that the prompt-injection model of agent attacks is incomplete: a zero-click RCE called Plugin4Shell in coding agents' plugin systems, and Apple's local MCP server in Safari 27 exposing browser automation to agents. Neither involved persuading a model. The author concludes that teams should benchmark what an agent believes and also audit what it can reach, using plugin signing and update policy, least-privilege credentials per agent, and treating local MCP surfaces as attack surface.

A draft ERC proposing schemeId 3 for ERC-5564 stealth addresses, combining an ML-KEM-768 encapsulation with a secp256k1 ECDH secret so that future quantum computers cannot retroactively deanonymize recipients from the public announcement log, while spending stays classical secp256k1 (and thus still quantum-vulnerable once spent). The post, with a linked reference implementation, test vectors and gas harness, details the key/meta-address format, the payment-secret combiner (hashing both shared secrets and ciphertexts for IND-CCA), the view-tag derivation ordering to avoid quantum tag-narrowing, measured gas cost (111,330 gas per payment on Prague), and open questions around ANO-CCA proofs for standardized ML-KEM, NIST SP 800-56C combiner approval, and downgrade-attack handling when a recipient registers under both schemeId 1 and 3.

A draft Ethereum ERC (ERC-8441) proposes schemeId 3 for ERC-5564 stealth addresses, combining an ML-KEM-768 encapsulation with a secp256k1 ECDH secret so that quantum adversaries who later break discrete log still cannot deanonymize who was paid in past public announcement logs, protecting against harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks. Spending remains classical secp256k1 and unprotected once quantum computers exist; the authors flag open issues including a documented downgrade attack (recipients registered under both scheme 1 and 3 can still be paid without PQ protection), the lack of a formal ANO-CCA proof for standardized ML-KEM, and a non-NIST-approved secret combiner. It reuses the existing ERC-5564 announcer and ERC-6538 registry with no contract changes, costing 111,330 gas per payment.

A Twitter/X post digests joint advisory AA26-281A from FBI, CISA, NSA and allied agencies (UK, Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Spain) on China-based Integrity Technology Group enabling threat actors, tracked elsewhere as Flax Typhoon, Ethereal Panda and Red Juliett, to target US critical infrastructure, government, healthcare, education and law enforcement networks worldwide. The actors chain open-source scanners, large botnets, XSS, password spraying against Microsoft Exchange, VPN persistence and credential-harvesting scripts. CISA added five exploited CVEs (ISC BIND, Apache Struts, ProFTPD, ONLYOFFICE Docs, Strapi) to its KEV catalog with an Oct 11 federal remediation deadline, and STIX IOCs accompany the advisory.
