Despite Opus 4.8, I somehow found myself sticking with GPT 5.5 and Codex. It is clear that GPT-5.6 is on the way; the fact that a new checkpoint has been reached pleases me all the more. I have high expectations for the new model. What a year for OpenAI.

Proactive Agents: LLM Efficiency in Wake Triggers
By

Do proactive agents really need an LLM to decide when to wake? The default proactive agent calls an LLM on every event just to decide whether to wake up. That is a lot of expensive inference spent on a yes or no. New research from Microsoft and Purdue asks whether the trigger

1. Set model to Opus 4.8
2. Reasoning effort to /ultracode
It can spawn hundreds of subagents working in parallel to take on massive tasks. https://t.co/xa3mA4ewqF pic.twitter.com/frh9lov5wfClaude's new Dynamic Workflows is amazing! 1. Set model to Opus 4.8
