Shipped: Catch the runaway agent while it's still running.
AI spend has no ceiling. An engineer can burn $5,000 in an hour, and a team that spins up an agent on Friday can loop it on a bad prompt all weekend. You find out when the bill lands: the money is already gone, the damage pieced back together from logs. Cloud spend had a natural limit. Tokens don’t. Now you see it as it happens. Connect a source and the calls stream in within seconds. Within minutes they’re broken out by model, provider, agent, and user.
Claude Mythos pricing in 2026: Fable 5 costs, Mythos 5 costs, and what every model actually runs
Claude Mythos is now available to the public through Claude Fable 5, released June 9, 2026. Claude Fable 5 pricing is $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, exactly 2x Claude Opus 4.8 ($5/$25). Claude Mythos 5 (the restricted Project Glasswing version) has identical pricing. Prompt caching cuts input spend by 90%. Batch API pricing is $5/$25 (50% off). In April 2026, Anthropic announced a model it said was too dangerous to release.
Agent Hooks + Chunk sidecars: Stop Broken AI Code Before It Hits CI
AI agents write code fast, but the feedback loop usually can't keep up. In this tutorial, you'll see how to wire Chunk sidecars into your agent's hooks so basic failures get caught before they ever reach your CI pipeline. We'll walk through the two hooks that chunk init writes automatically: Both hooks return exit 2 on failure, blocking the commit or keeping the turn open so the agent can fix its own mistakes with no manual prompting required.
The engineers who handle change best aren't keeping up with every tool

Mock your backend dependencies in 2 minutes
Stop letting broken downstream dependencies kill your workflow. Use proxymock to record backend data and inbound calls, then flip on a mock whenever a system goes offline. You can even replay traffic to test your code changes and ensure your endpoints are still working perfectly.

I'm happy to share some really exiting updates from the Flyway product teams this past month.
Mainframe DevOps: Modern CI/CD for Big Iron | Harness Blog
For Platform Engineering teams, the goal has always been clear: build a secure, scalable internal developer platform that reduces cognitive load and accelerates time-to-market. Yet, a massive obstacle often remains hidden in plain sight: the mainframe. While your distributed teams are shipping cloud-native microservices multiple times a day, your core backend mainframe applications frequently remain locked in an isolated silo, lagging behind on slow monthly or quarterly cadences.
Centralize DHCP Visibility with the Windows Discovery Agent
Your Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server already knows what’s connected to your network. The problem is that DHCP data rarely stays aligned with the rest of your infrastructure systems. Instead, it becomes fragmented across Windows servers, branch offices, spreadsheets, and disconnected operational tools. Lease data ages, assignments go untracked, and teams lose confidence in their network inventory.
