The Evolution of the Agent Harness

Latent Space essay argues late-2025 agent gains came from models and harnesses maturing together, with harness logic absorbed into model weights.

The piece defines the agent harness as everything beyond model weights—tools, context, memory, guardrails—and charts its evolution from ReAct prompting (October 2022) through AutoGPT's premature autonomy, Cursor/Copilot's human-in-the-loop retreat, and Devin's roughly 15% success rate, to o1's capability overhang and Claude Code's February 2025 terminal agent with permission rules. It argues the Christmas 2025 jump cited by Transformer co-inventor Lukasz Kaiser reflected model and harness curves crossing, and that remaining harnesses will serve human attention rather than the model.

When the Whole Company Adopts AI: What It Does to Your SOC

Analysis of 16.9 million SOC alerts finds AI-related alerts at 0.43%, growing 685% since February, with 94.1% noise and 0.02% real attacks.

A review of roughly 16.9 million SOC alerts found about 73,000 (0.43%) were AI-related, a share that grew 685% between February and June 2026. Of AI-related alerts, 94.1% were noise, 5.8% genuine risks, and 0.02% real attacks; 79.8% received benign verdicts, 81.7% were automatically suppressed, and only 5.4% reached a human analyst. The only confirmed attacks were phishing campaigns that weaponized AI brand names as lures, while developer coding agents spawning shells and reading credential stores routinely tripped detections written before AI agents existed.

How Developers Prevent Production Risk at the Source

Wiz argues shift-left code-stage security cuts remediation costs and ships Wiz Code, WizOS, and WizCLI to catch flaws pre-deployment.

A Wiz blog post argues that fixing vulnerabilities at the code stage costs a fraction of production remediation, citing the node:20-slim base image which ships 14 known CVEs, three of them critical. It claims AI agents can now analyze open-source commits and generate working exploits in minutes, shrinking the window between a public fix and automated attacks. The post promotes WizOS near-zero-CVE base images, WizCLI and MCP-server checks inside developer and AI agent sessions, and Wiz Code scanning across pull requests, repositories, and pipelines covering SAST, SCA, secrets, and IaC misconfigurations.

The Outsized Shadow: Why 5% of AI Users Are Your Biggest Security Risk

Akamai's 2026 Enterprise AI Usage report finds the top 5% of AI power users create outsized shadow AI, data leakage, and agent security risks.

Akamai's State of the Internet: Enterprise AI Usage Risk Report 2026, based on real-world usage telemetry, finds the top 5% of enterprise AI power users interact with AI models at 12 times the rate of the bottom 50% of the workforce. 47.11% of enterprise AI conversations occur through personal identities rather than corporate-managed accounts, and 14.4% run through corporate email addresses tied to personal freemium subscriptions. 17.7% of employees at midsize enterprises use AI browser or IDE extensions, of which 16.31% contain known CVE vulnerabilities and nearly 75% request high or critical permissions. The report also describes emerging attack vectors including Vibe Hacking, CursorJacking, and CometJacking indirect prompt injection.

Mapping out your unknown: A threat hunter’s guide to GitHub

Datadog Security Labs publishes a threat-hunting guide with audit-log queries to detect GitHub token theft, device code phishing, and source code exfiltration.

Datadog's threat-hunting guide covers GitHub audit log queries for detecting compromised accounts, stolen personal access tokens, and malicious OAuth app authorizations. Attackers typically obtain credentials through phishing, credential stuffing, leaked secrets, or device code phishing, then map private repositories, exfiltrate source code, and pivot into connected cloud and CI/CD environments. The guide maps detections to MITRE techniques like T1078 and T1528 and documents GitHub logging quirks affecting attribution, token metadata, and visibility fields.

Postman Passport controls API access without exposing credentials

Postman launches Passport, a secretless API access product keeping real credentials inside customer environments for humans and AI agents.

Postman announced general availability of Passport by Postman, a standalone API security product that keeps real API keys and tokens inside customers' own secret stores and issues inert secret references to developers, machines, and AI agents. It enforces grants down to exact action, host, and path, provides full call attribution and second-level revocation, and mints ephemeral task-scoped identities for agent fleets where sub-agents inherit only subsets of parent permissions. The product targets credential sprawl as AI agents call APIs at roughly 1,000x the rate of humans.

[AINews] AEF-1 standard emerges for Third Party Evaluators, as Xai, OpenAI, and Anthropic all cosign

xAI, OpenAI, and Anthropic cosign the AEF-1 third-party evaluation standard while Dario Amodei proposes embedded evaluators for safety verification.

The AI Evaluator Forum published AEF-1, a baseline standard for independent third-party AI evaluations covering access, conflicts of interest, funding relationships, recusal, and transparency, cosigned by xAI, OpenAI, and Anthropic. Dario Amodei wrote a rare personal blogpost proposing embedded evaluators such as METR with desks, badges, company laptops, and internal-risk-team-level access to verify safety commitments, plus democratic and global coordination frameworks. The roundup also covers the pacing debate: Bilal Chughtai left Google DeepMind arguing progress may outrun alignment, while critics including Aidan Gomez and Cohere push back against slowdowns and lab gatekeeping. Additional items include Cline Desktop's launch with open-weight model support.

Dr. Claw: An AI Scientist Workspace for Vibe Research

Researchers release Dr. Claw, an open-source auditable workspace that wraps coding agents like Claude Code for end-to-end AI-assisted research workflows.

Paper 2609.00365 presents Dr. Claw, an open-source workspace that wraps existing coding-agent executors such as Claude Code and Gemini CLI in a controllable, human-in-the-loop research workflow. It uses persistent state objects, a reusable skill library, and multi-executor coordination to make research decisions auditable and recoverable, rather than adding another autonomous agent. Holding the executor fixed, Dr. Claw scores higher on research completeness than a bare command-line agent while preserving an auditable process trail. The code is released under AGPL-3.0 on GitHub (OpenLAIR/dr-claw).
