Could your app move to a new host in a day? A platform popular with vibe coders shuts down Dec 31. We'd check backups and key rotation this week too.

Only 18% of 300 security chiefs surveyed say they verify an AI agent's identity before it acts. We'd give every agent its own account and only the access its job needs.

We expect AI agents to start logging in to most apps, the way they did at banks. We'd start them on read-only.

Prototypes take two days now. Decisions still take weeks. The bottleneck moved.

GPT-4o and GPT-4.1 leave OpenAI's API on Jan 14, 2027, fine-tunes included. If your product can't switch models without a rewrite, you're renting your roadmap.

Our venture designmd.me is officially on the Claude MCP Directory. Stay tuned for it being available soon on ChatGPT as a plugin next!
designmd is now in the claude directory, so claude can use it in one click. try asking: "compare linear and vercel, then build me a pricing page in linear's style" it measures both design systems from the live sites (colours, type, corners, spacing, shadows) before writing a line, so the page actually looks like linear. search, read and compare are free, no account. proud of this one with the @crowdlinker team

New on DesignMD: Remix. Pick a design system you like (a site on Discover, one of your own files, or someone else's remix), then change the colors, fonts, corners, spacing and shadows. A sample page redraws as you go, in light and dark. Save it and you get your own DESIGN.md, ready for Claude Code, Cursor or Figma. Saving is free. designmd.me/remix

AI usage is effort, not results. Wharton and GBK: 35% report strong AI ROI where departments track growth, 13% where they track efficiency alone.

AI coding tool breached, API keys stolen, overnight charges. Three checks every team running AI tools needs: hard spend caps, no keys in code, a kill switch.

designmd.me is now in the Claude directory. Connect it in one click, then ask Claude for a page. It reads a real design system (Discord’s purple, its 12px buttons, its 48px cards) instead of guessing. Search, read and compare with no account. claude.ai/directory/designmd

apps get duo updates one by one. websites don't get an update button. unfolded, the duo is 890 × 626 css px, wider than it is tall. most sites were never laid out for that. we built a free tester at @crowdlinker: load any url at both duo sizes and see what breaks.

We need 10 Slack workspaces to install a free app. Slack won't review Kudos for the Marketplace until it's live on 10 active teams. We're short. Type /kudos, tag a teammate, say what they did, pick a GIF. Free. No catch. Link below. Reply "in" when you've added it.

Google bid $10M on a bankrupt airline. Not for the planes. For the inbox: 100M employee emails and 500M Teams messages, to train AI. Here's where AI training data is coming from next, and why it's your problem too.

Ask every vendor in writing: do you train on our data, or sell it? Then make the answer survive a shutdown or acquisition. Which tool in your stack worries you most?
