Claude Code and Amazon Q bugs show the repo-trust problem for coding agents
Two disclosures showed AI coding tools turning repository-controlled state into executable behavior. A Claude Code sandbox escape used prompt injection and Git worktree path confusion to overwrite `~/.zshenv`, while Amazon Q Developer patched a high-severity MCP config flaw where a malicious `.amazonq/mcp.json` in a trusted workspace could launch local processes inheriting AWS credentials.

OpenRouter publishes continuous GPQA and TAU-Bench results for open-weight models
OpenRouter says it continuously runs GPQA and TAU-Bench on most open-weight models and uses those results in AutoExacto, its default meta-benchmark for routing tool calls. Its GLM 5.2 page exposes 1M-token context, reasoning-effort settings, OpenAI-compatible API access, and rolling 30-day provider price, latency, throughput, success-rate, and eval charts.
