OpenAI says an internal model and roughly 10,000 agents produced a Lean-formalized Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize solution in 88 hours. Mathematicians and NYU’s Tristan Buckmaster allege a rushed scoop after related progress with Anthropic researcher Levent Alpöge, and warn that agent swarms could chill open math collaboration.
Legal AI startup Harvey raised $550M at a $15.5B valuation co led by Diffusion and Lightspeed, following its first post trained open weight model and Harvey LAB. The same day it acquired Guardrails AI, an agent security and simulation platform—its fourth acquisition of 2026…
Nightfall opened early access to MCP Gateway, a proxy that enforces policy on tool calls in Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, and Claude Cowork before they run, with credential brokering so agents never see raw secrets.

Anthropic manages invoicing; Cursor and Factory sit alongside Claude Code in the same catalog…
