AI coding stack takes shape: Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex form a composable trio

Cursor rolled out Glass, a new orchestration layer to manage parallel AI coding agents; OpenAI released a codex-plugin-cc for Anthropic’s Claude Code, enabling Codex to run as a subagent inside Claude Code; and Codex can review Claude output via a cross-provider review gate. The three launches demonstrate a composable AI-coding stack—distinct layers for orchestration, execution, and review—rather than a single merged product. This pattern mirrors traditional dev-tool stacks and signals interoperability as a core trend for the AI-coding era, backed by Claude Code’s popularity and Codex’s large user base.

BirdyChat edges into EU WhatsApp interoperability, but practical use is limited

Under the EU's DMA, BirdyChat becomes the first European chat app to be interoperable with WhatsApp for users in the European Economic Area. In practice, WhatsApp’s opt-in requirement and regional limitation mean many users won’t be able to chat cross‑platform, and BirdyChat currently supports only 1:1 chats with group interoperability planned for a later update.

"Proposed Bill Aims to Enhance Secure Interoperability of Zoom and Teams"

Sen. Ron Wyden has proposed the Secure and Interoperable Government Collaboration Technology Act, which would require videoconferencing and messaging tools used by the federal government to be able to communicate with each other, enforce high security standards, and include end-to-end encryption. The bill aims to push the industry toward greater interoperability and would involve the General Services Administration, National Institute of Standards and Technology, and Department of Homeland Security in setting and reviewing standards. The proposal comes in response to concerns about security risks from technology vendors, particularly highlighted by a recent report on a Chinese hack of US government emails involving Microsoft.
