  • CloakHQ/CloakBrowser — 7,769★ this week (18,662★ total) — stealth Chromium that passes every bot-detection test; drop-in Playwright replacement for browser automation and agent testing | https://github.com/CloakHQ/CloakBrowser

TODAY'S ITEMS

1. Claude Code /workflows — Agents That Chain Without Bloating Your Context

  • The v2.1.147 changelog briefly included /workflows: define a workflow.js file, and sub-agents route phase-to-phase via code — never touching your main context window — with schemas, fan-out, retries, and live progress tracking.
  • The changelog entry was pulled overnight (feature shipped too early), but community screenshots confirm it appeared and the architecture is real.
  • Source: r/ClaudeCode — 385 upvotes, 74 comments
  • Why it matters: Code-orchestrated multi-agent pipelines (code for control flow, models for judgment per step) is the design direction — understanding it now puts you ahead of the next release.
  • Emerging

2. Claude Code v2.1.147 — /code-review Posts Inline PR Comments

  • /simplify is now /code-review with an effort level (/code-review high) and a --comment flag that posts findings directly as inline GitHub PR comments; v2.1.148 shipped a same-day hotfix for Bash tool exit code 127 regression.
  • Source: Claude Code Releases
  • Why it matters: /code-review --comment eliminates the manual "copy AI feedback → post as PR comments" step from every review workflow.

3. Anthropic Academy — 17 Free Official Courses, Going Viral

  • A Reddit post surfaced Anthropic's free academy (anthropic.skilljar.com) to 2,135 upvoters overnight — MCP, Claude Code, Agents API, and AI fluency tracks, updated April 2026, with official certificates on completion; no credit card required.
  • Source: r/ClaudeAI + anthropic.skilljar.com
  • Why it matters: The MCP and Claude Code tracks cover material most practitioners learned piecemeal — 2 hours of structured courses from the source beats reading scattered docs.
  • Verified

4. Google I/O: WebMCP — Browser-Native MCP in Chrome 149

  • Google announced WebMCP at I/O today: a proposed open web standard exposing JavaScript functions and HTML forms as MCP-compatible tools that browser AI agents can call directly; origin trial starts in Chrome 149.
  • Source: Google Developer Blog
  • Why it matters: If you build web-facing Claude integrations, a browser-native MCP standard means client-side agents could eventually call your tools without a server proxy.

NEW TOOL / PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT

  • datasette/datasette-agent — stars: unavailable (launched 21 May) — Simon Willison's open-source plugin that adds a conversational AI layer to Datasette; ask natural-language questions over your SQLite databases; supports Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and local models. pip install datasette-agent | https://github.com/datasette/datasette-agent

PROMPT OF THE DAY

You are one focused agent in a multi-stage review pipeline.
Your ONLY job this pass: check whether every item in the
spec was actually implemented in the diff below.

For each spec requirement, output exactly one of:
  DONE    — [requirement] — found at [file:line]
  MISSING — [requirement] — not in diff
  PARTIAL — [requirement] — [what's there vs. what's needed]

Do not suggest fixes. Do not comment on style.
Stay strictly within spec-vs-implementation coverage.

Spec: [paste spec here]
Diff: [paste diff here]

LANDSCAPE NOTES

TRY THIS WEEKEND

Item 1 (required): Map out a 3-phase /workflows-style pipeline for one task you repeat weekly — write the phase names, input/output schemas, and which model judgment step belongs in each phase. No code needed yet; the design work is the exercise. Reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeCode/comments/1tkjy4u/
