Graphicle is a local-first Rust program that parses a repository into a tree-sitter code graph (a port of Graphify) and adds project memory: docs, reviewed decisions and captured Claude Code/Codex sessions. It serves cited file-and-line excerpts within a token budget via one MCP server, CLI and browser app, backed by a single SQLite file, with no API key or telemetry. The README reports a code-only extract on Kubernetes (31k files) in 3m18s versus 26m38s for Graphify 0.9.88, and a memory comparison against seven systems. Agent-proposed memories need user approval and go stale when the code they reference changes.

Announcement of hexvero, an MCP server that gives coding agents a static first look at binaries and app bundles across 18 formats (ELF, PE, Mach-O, APK, .NET, Go, Wasm, Electron, SQLite). It uses zero-dependency Node parsers and marks each finding confirmed or inferred with file and line. Its tool catalog is 3,043 tokens, against a claimed 509,696 for the established reverse-engineering MCP server. Paged output with a byte budget shrinks a 541 MB Electron app to a 15 KB result, 1.3 MB of JSON to 7.9 KB, and a 450 KB build diff to 1.2 KB. radare2, rizin or Ghidra plug in for disassembly, and `npx hexvero setup --apply` registers it with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 15 more clients. It is a concrete example of keeping MCP tool definitions and results small enough for an agent's context window.

Claude-Mem is an open-source persistent memory plugin for Claude Code and other coding agents (Codex, OpenCode, Grok Bot, T3 Code, OpenClaw) that captures tool-usage observations during sessions, compresses them into semantic summaries, and reinjects relevant context into future sessions. It uses five lifecycle hooks (SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, PostToolUse, Stop, SessionEnd), a local SQLite database, a Chroma vector store for hybrid semantic+keyword search, and exposes three MCP tools (search, timeline, get_observations) that follow a token-efficient layered retrieval pattern to cut context costs roughly 10x. It is Apache-2.0 licensed, built with the Claude Agent SDK and TypeScript, and ships an optional hosted "observer" memory service alongside self-hosted options via OpenRouter/Gemini keys or an Anthropic plan.

LiteLLM Flaw CVE-2026-42271 Exploited in the Wild, Chains to Unauthenticated RCECISA added CVE-2026-42271, a command injection flaw in BerriAI's LiteLLM AI gateway, to its KEV catalog after confirming active exploitation; the bug lets any authenticated proxy user run arbitrary commands via the MCP server test endpoints (/mcp-rest/test/connection and /mcp-rest/test/tools/list), which spawned attacker-supplied stdio subprocess configs. Horizon3.ai separately showed the flaw can be chained with CVE-2026-48710, a Starlette "BadHost" header validation bypass, to skip authentication entirely and achieve unauthenticated RCE (combined CVSS 10.0), exposing model provider credentials and enabling lateral movement into AI infrastructure. Fixed in LiteLLM 1.83.7 (test endpoints now require PROXY_ADMIN role) and Starlette 1.0.1; the article also notes a prior LiteLLM SQLi (CVE-2026-42208) exploited within 36 hours of disclosure.

A GitHub PoC chaining two n8n CVEs into unauthenticated RCE: CVE-2026-21858 abuses a Content-Type confusion in the Form Trigger/Respond-to-Webhook nodes to read arbitrary files (e.g. /proc/self/environ, the SQLite database, and the config file), from which the attacker derives the JWT secret from n8n's encryptionKey and forges an admin session cookie. That admin access is then used to create a workflow exploiting CVE-2025-68613, an expression-injection sandbox bypass (`this.process.mainModule.require`) that yields command execution, all demonstrated with a working Python exploit script and Docker lab against n8n 1.65.0. It notes the exploit was developed independently of a prior Cyera/Dor Attias write-up on a related n8n chain and details the specific vulnerable workflow pattern (file-upload form + binary Respond node) required for exploitation.

git-pkgs is a Go rewrite of a Ruby tool that adds a git subcommand for tracking dependency changes across a repository's history, indexing manifests/lockfiles from 36+ package managers (npm, RubyGems, Cargo, PyPI, Maven, Composer, Go modules, etc.) into a local SQLite database. Beyond history/blame/diff, it offers supply-chain security commands: `vulns` (OSV-based CVE scanning with SARIF output for GitHub code scanning, plus blame/praise/exposure for remediation metrics), `licenses` (with drift detection and CI-friendly exit codes), `deprecated`, `provenance` (trusted-publishing/attestation checks), `integrity` (lockfile hash drift detection), `maintainers`/`health` (via ecosyste.ms metadata), and `sbom` export in CycloneDX/SPDX. It also supports a dependency-aware `bisect` to find when a vulnerability, license change, or capability (e.g. network access) was introduced, and ships GitHub Actions for CI integration.

When chat is the wrong UIBurke Holland (GitHub) argues that chat is often the wrong interface for working with AI coding agents and introduces "canvas" β a feature in the GitHub Copilot app that spins up a small full-stack application with no browser chrome, which can call third-party APIs or run code locally while exchanging messages bidirectionally with the Copilot agent. He walks through concrete canvases: a playable Connect 4 game against the agent, a Winget package browser/installer, a SQLite query UI with IntelliSense, a Markdown-to-Windows-Live-Writer-style blog editor, and a full development-workflow automation canvas that removes the human from the loop between research, prototyping and review steps. The piece frames this as a general lesson for agent builders: build a reusable tool the agent and user can both interact with, rather than burning tokens asking the agent to perform every repetitive action through chat.

A Docker-based exploitation lab for CVE-2026-26980, an unauthenticated blind SQL injection in Ghost CMS's Content API (versions before 6.19.1). The bug lives in slug-filter-order.js, where slug values from the array-notation filter syntax (filter=slug:['value']) are interpolated unsanitized into an ORDER BY CASE statement, letting NQL's single-quote-wrapped literals smuggle raw SQL past input validation; since MySQL treats || as OR and empty strings as falsy, attackers get a clean boolean oracle to extract data (e.g. admin email/password hash) from any Ghost site using only the publicly embedded Content API key. The repo includes exploit.py for full setup/verify/extract, a docker-compose lab spinning up both vulnerable (6.18.0) and patched (6.19.1) Ghost instances, and also mentions a second patched bug (jsonpath/static-eval prototype pollution in the {{#get}} Handlebars helper leading to RCE via themes).
