Anthropic Open-Sources sandbox-runtime for OS-Level AI Agent Sandboxing

Anthropic has released sandbox-runtime (srt), an open-source Apache-2.0 npm package and TypeScript library that confines any process using OS isolation primitives instead of containers. It uses macOS Seatbelt, Linux bubblewrap and an alpha Windows mode, with deny-by-default networking routed through a host-side domain allowlist proxy. The tool applies to Claude Code, custom agents, local MCP servers and plain CLI programs, and Anthropic reports an 84% cut in Claude Code permission prompts from i

Bayer Crop Science's Agentic Decision Engine runs 22 specialist agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

Bayer Crop Science built an Agentic Decision Engine (ADE), a natural-language multi-agent layer over its Connected Decision Engine, to help breeders and researchers query ML workflows without navigating each underlying system. A supervisor agent routes requests to 22 domain-specific specialist agents that call backend APIs through AgentCore Gateway. Bayer reports that ADE resolves about 80 percent of user questions without engineer involvement and cut per-API integration overhead sharply by expo

Why it matters: It offers a detailed, concrete production case study of enterprise agent architecture, observability and cost-attribution practices that teams building multi-agent systems can learn from.

Google Cloud Launches Agent Compute Engine: One MicroVM per AI Agent

Google Cloud announced Agent Compute Engine (ACE), a compute service that runs each AI agent session in a hardware-isolated Cloud Hypervisor microVM with its own guest kernel, root access and Hyperdisk storage. The design keeps zero credentials inside the sandbox: traffic crosses a virtio-vsock proxy to an Agent Gateway that swaps in real backend credentials after policy checks, and sandboxes get only a short-lived SPIFFE identity. Idle agents are checkpointed to zero active resources and resume

Why it matters: It details concrete Google Cloud infrastructure and security architecture for running AI agents, useful for teams choosing how to sandbox agents safely.

AWS SageMaker AI adds serverless training sessions for custom post-training loops

Amazon SageMaker AI has made training sessions generally available within its serverless model customization offering, letting users write their own post-training loop—custom loss functions, reward signals, and multi-turn RL stages—while AWS handles GPU allocation, distributed execution, fault recovery, and checkpoint storage. Supported techniques include SFT, DPO, RLVR, RLAIF, and multi-turn RL with LoRA or full fine-tuning, and an agent-assisted cookbook aims to automate data prep, technique c

Amazon SageMaker adds training session APIs for custom LLM training loops

Amazon SageMaker AI introduced training session APIs that let developers write their own LLM training loops in Python while SageMaker handles GPU allocation, distributed execution, fault recovery and checkpointing. The APIs expose operations such as sample(), forward_backward() and optim_step() through ServiceClient, TrainingClient and SamplingClient, with billing per token processed. A companion cookbook provides SFT and RL recipes, and AWS reports a GRPO example on GSM8K raised held-out accura

Why it matters: It gives ML engineers and alignment researchers a concrete way to run custom SFT, RL and preference-optimization loops without provisioning or managing GPU infrastructure.

Google Launches Agent Compute Engine for Isolated Gemini Agent Runtimes

Google has introduced Agent Compute Engine, a runtime environment built specifically for AI agents that gives each Gemini agent its own hardware-isolated micro virtual machine. The company is also expanding governance capabilities so companies can manage agents across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments. The announcement focuses on isolation and control for enterprise agent deployments.

Liquid AI Launches RIPL Real-Time Inference Engine for Its LFMs

Liquid AI announced Liquid RIPL, a low-latency inference pipeline for serving Liquid Foundation Models in live request paths, claiming end-to-end responses in under 50 ms for short requests. RIPL targets LFM2.5 models from 230M to 2.6B parameters on NVIDIA data-center and workstation GPUs. Liquid reports 5.6x to 28.4x lower p95 latency than Qwen3.5 on vLLM, though the sub-50 ms claim does not hold for longer requests, with the 2.6B model reaching 449.1 ms p95 at 256-in/128-out.

Cohere Releases Rerank 5 With Context Focus and Calibrated Scores

Cohere has released Rerank 5, a reranker family available in Pro and Fast tiers, with a 32K-token context window and support for 100+ languages. The release adds Context Focus, an optional feature that returns scored character spans for relevant passages within documents, and calibrated relevance scores intended to read as probabilities so developers can filter by threshold instead of a fixed top-k. Cohere reports that Pro ranks first on 39 of 46 composite datasets in its own evaluation, with 82

1Password lets AI agents sign in without exposing passwords

1Password announced a feature called 1Password for Agents that lets AI agents sign into user accounts without seeing or handling the passwords. Users must approve each sign-in request rather than giving agents open access to all connected accounts. CEO Aashish Tripathi framed it as replacing the old model of handing over a credential and hoping for the best. The feature aims to make agent-driven tasks that require service logins less cumbersome.
