Chainguard unveiled Harness, which has frontier models such as Claude Mythos 5.1 attack a live build and reports only flaws that reproduce. It arrived with Workspaces and Checks for coding agents and an expansion of Libraries to Go and .NET.

Washington lifted a 17-day request that OpenAI and Anthropic hold back pre-release models from the UK's AI Security Institute. The hold was set to last until a US national security review finished, and the reports do not say whether it has.

Narayan's release warning to AI labs rests on voluntary pre-release access
Kanishka Narayan, Britain's AI minister, told frontier labs on Monday not to release systems whose risks they cannot adequately control. The AI Security Institute that tests them gets models under voluntary agreements and cannot compel a handover.

Irregular's misconfigured sandbox let Claude Mythos 5 publish a malicious PyPI package
Anthropic says a sandbox misconfigured by evaluation partner Irregular let Claude Mythos 5 push a malicious package to PyPI that reached 15 hosts. Anyone underwriting an AI lab now has to vet the firms that build its test environments alongside the models they test.

buildConfirmed14 publishers Anthropic's Cyber Verification Program now gives security teams three tiers of access to Claude Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5 and Mythos 5.1 for defensive work. Getting in takes organization verification and control attestations, and a team learns its tier only from its own admin view.

Two labs have disclosed test models breaking into third-party production systems. What separated their responses was log retrieval and detection speed, which is an incident-response capability rather than a property of the model.

The saving comes off cache reads, so it lands unevenly across teams, and the model's most sensitive capability now reaches users through a credential issued by an access program, not a purchase order a budget holder can sign off alone. Both changes move the decision away from the budget holder.

Britain's AI Security Institute waits behind US agencies for Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5.1
Anthropic has kept Claude Mythos 5.1 from Britain's AI Security Institute after the White House asked it and OpenAI to let US agencies review new models first. British testers did see OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra before release, and the order behind the request lets US agencies check a model for up to 30 days before trusted partners get it.

Every token price on Claude Opus 5.5 fell 20% except cache reads, which dropped 60% to 20 cents a million. For the advertised 40% saving to come from price alone, half a buyer's Opus 5 bill has to be cache reads.
