Hermes Agent now has a production-grade WhatsApp Business Cloud integration: use it as a private WhatsApp bot for yourself or your team, or configure it for customer-facing support.
Connect an existing WhatsApp Business Cloud number or create one through Meta Business Manager, then run 'hermes whatsapp-cloud' to wire it into Hermes with guided setup, secure webhooks, media/voice support, read receipts, typing indicators, and interactive approval buttons.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Here's a simple loop: Tell codex to maintain your repos, wake up every 5 minutes and direct work to threads. That makes it easy to parallelize+steer work as needed.
I use a orchestrator skill combined with my triage+autoreview+computer use skills, so some work can land autonomously. https://t.co/FbBoJTIcfd

Introducing the Hermes Agent Profile Builder
You can now build a complete profile in the dashboard with full control over identity/name/description, model/provider, built-in + optional skills, skills-hub installs, and MCP servers in one easy flow
Lots of people asked how I used Fable to edit its own launch video so I made a video about that!
TLDR it wrote a lot of code & tool calls to use transcription services, ffmpeg, do colorgrading, use the figma mcp, make remotion UI and render it.
I didn't touch a video editor.
Steps to become a senior programmer:
1. Install my /teach skill
npx skills add mattpocock/skills --skill teach
2. Create a new working directory on your laptop
mkdir junior-to-senior
cd junior-to-senior
3. Kick off your coding agent in the directory

4. Copy this prompt
/teach me how to be a great strategic programmer. My opinion is that AI is eating 'tactical, on-the-ground' programming. The day-to-day work of a developer involves not only coding, but also planning, QA, codebase design, and much more. I'm interested in learning the strategic skills - that, in a previous era, would take me from junior to senior - but in this era are table stakes.
5. Paste it into the coding agent
Below is an example of what the first output will look like. I used Opus 4.8, medium effort.
6. Continue working with the agent until you're a senior
claude opus 4.8 + OpenClaw now finds restaurants with weak food photos, rebuilds their best dish into a cinematic reel, and mails the owner a postcard with the QR...on autopilot.
here's how agencies can land recurring contracts with this system:
- scans every restaurant in a city in real time
- pulls their real reviews, ratings, and reviewer-uploaded food photos
flags the weakest shot of their signature dish
- samples the brand color straight from the restaurant's own dish photo
rebuilds that exact plate into a cinematic 9:16 reel
- writes a printed postcard about their best dish
- mails it to the registered office, addressed to the owner, with a QR to the live reel
every step from the scrape to the reel to the mailbox is automated
reply "REEL" + RT and i'll send you a free guide so you can build this too (must be following so i can DM you)

People starting AI agencies think they need to learn 50 different services.
I've built systems for 85+ companies. You're only ever doing 4 things for a client:
(bookmark this)
1. Process improvement - find what's broken, fix it before touching a tool
2. Workflow automation - remove the manual steps that eat your team's week
3. Data structure - centralize everything so the business has one source of truth
4. AI integration - layer intelligence on top of the clean foundation you built
And from a development standpoint, every project is one of three types:
- Full custom build: they're still on Excel sheets and shared folders. You build everything from scratch.
- Fix and implement: infrastructure exists but it's messy. Clean up the data structure first, then build on top of it.
- AI layer: their stack is solid. You add agents, automations, and decision logic on top. No rebuild required.
4 services with 3 delivery modes. That's the entire menu. The complexity people are scared of doesn't exist.

As frontier models (e.g. Fable 5) continue to push the task horizon of knowledge work automation, it becomes ever more important for humans to be able to audit decisions back to the source context.
It is extremely easy for agents to cite an entire document or document page, but much harder for them to trace back to the exact numbers/words/figures within a page.
Today we've launched granular bounding boxes within LlamaParse, which allows you to obtain visual citations of every single word in the document. This allows human users to audit exact words and figures - not just general document regions or entire pages!

We talk a lot about how important it is to set up self-verification loops. Especially in the age of powerful models that can run for long periods of time, self-verification is a key ingredient that enables the model to run for much longer, delivering a result that is closer to what you intended, so you can do more without having to constantly check in on Claude as it works.
@delba_oliveira gives a great breakdown of what that looks like and why it matters

Higgsfield MCP just got five new tools for Claude.
Generate Kling Motion Control videos, turn any creative into an ad with Click-to-Ad, remove backgrounds from images and videos, upscale to 4K, and expand to 16:9 or 9:16.
Pair with Fable 5 to control exactly what you generate.
