NEW ChatGPT Code 5.3 Update

Explore the technical architecture of OpenAI’s GPT-5.3 Codex, the first model meaningfully instrumental in its own training and deployment. This release introduces Interactive Steering, allowing developers to course-correct the AI mid-task without losing context—making it feel more like a pair programmer than a black-box tool.

Claude Opus 4.6 Vs GPT-5.3 Codex: Who Wins?

This technical overview explores how OpenAI’s GPT 5.3 Codex and Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6 are redefining the role of the developer. Gone are the days of simple autocomplete; these models function as senior-level agents capable of debugging, testing, and autonomous execution.

OpenAI Codex App beats Claude!?

Step inside the new OpenAI Codeex app, a desktop command center that is changing the way we think about AI agents. This walkthrough explores the power of running parallel agent threads, each with its own terminal and workspace. We highlight the "Skills" feature for reusable bundles of instructions and the background "Automations" that triage issues and summarize failures without manual intervention.

GPT-5.3 Spotted in OpenAI Codebase, Details Remain Unknown

GPT-5.3 inside OpenAI’s public GitHub repository, suggesting that the general-purpose version of the model is already in development. The First sighting of GPT 5.3 has been spotted!

ChatGPT 5.3 Codex Moves Ahead on Code, While Claude’s 4.6 AI Banks on Reliability

On a 2.0 terminal benchmark, OpenAI’s model scores about 10% higher, guiding users toward stronger results on long, complex coding tasks.

Show HN: Claude SaaS Starter – Next.js Boilerplate for Claude Streaming

Product: https://bydaewon.gumroad.com/l/claude-saas-starterI built this because every SaaS boilerplate I found was OpenAI-first. Claude's SSE streaming differs from OpenAI's — the Anthropic SDK's messages.stream() returns a different event structure, and you need a custom ReadableStream transform to pipe it as Server-Sent Events on Edge Runtime.The stack:- Next.js 16 (App Router, TypeScript) - Supabase for auth and PostgreSQL (with RLS) - Anthropic SDK for Clau

Show HN: Give Your AI the Ability to Find, Install, and Use Skill Autonomously

URL: https://github.com/twwch/next-chat-skills---Text (paste into the "text" field):Hi HN,I built an open-source AI assistant that can autonomously discover, install, and execute Skills to actually complete tasks for you.The Problem:Most AI chatbots today are stuck in "read-only" mode. They can tell you how to do something, but they can't do it. Want to convert a PPTX to PDF? The AI will explain how, but you still have to run the commands yourself.The

Show HN: PolyMCP – AI-Callable Python and TS Tools with Inspector and Apps

I built PolyMCP, an open-source framework around the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that lets you turn any existing Python function into an MCP tool usable by AI agents — with no rewrites, no glue code, no custom wrappers.Over the last weeks, PolyMCP has grown into a small ecosystem: • PolyMCP (core) – expose Python functions as MCP tools • PolyMCP Inspector – visual UI to explore, test, and debug MCP servers • PolyMCP MCP SDK Apps – build MCP-powered apps with tools + UI resources⸻1) Turn any

AI Agents That Execute Business Workflows (Claude Code for ERP)

TL;DR: Built an ERP where AI agents execute workflows like procurement and invoice processing. Uses Cases (workspaces) and Tasks (sessions) like Claude Code. Agent completes one task, automatically triggers the next.

Show HN: MCP App Template designed for coding agents

Hi, author of the repo speaking here!When I tried building MCP Apps [1], the official repos (https://github.com/openai/openai-apps-sdk-examples, https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/e...) were great starting points, but they're designed for human developers. When I used them with Claude Code, I ended up in the usual loop: agent writes code → I manually test the app on ChatGPT → describe errors back → repeat. Plus,

Show HN: Symdex-100 – Intent-based code search using 20-byte "Cypher" metadata

Hi HN!I am camillo and maker of symdex-100 - semantic fingerprints for fast and token-efficient code-base search.Symdex-100 indexes every function in your repo into a small SQLite sidecar (`.symdex/index.db`). Each function gets a structured ~20-byte “Cypher” (e.g. `SEC:VAL_TOKEN--ASY` = security, validates token, async) instead of opaque embeddings. You search by intent—“where do we validate user tokens”—and get sub-second, ranked results from the index. Source files are never modified.Why

Show HN: EZClaw – Deploy OpenClaw agents in – 1 minute – no tech skills needed

Hey HN,I built EZClaw (https://www.ezclaw.app) to solve a problem I kept running into: non-technical friends and family wanted their own AI assistant, but the setup barrier was too high. Self-hosting means Docker, API keys, cloud accounts, SSH — none of that is reasonable to ask of normal people.EZClaw is managed hosting for OpenClaw (https://github.com/openclaw), an open-source personal AI assistant that lives in Telegram. You sign up, connect your Telegram, pick an AI

Show HN: Multi Tenant MCP Platform

We couldn’t find much guidance on deploying MCP servers in a multi-tenant setup, so we built one. SageMCP is an open-source platform for hosting isolated MCP server instances with centralized OAuth and API key management.Each tenant gets its own MCP endpoint (`/api/v1/{tenant}/mcp`) with path-based isolation. Full MCP protocol support — Streamable HTTP, WebSocket, and SSE — with protocol version negotiation, resumable SSE streams, and JSON-RPC batching.340 tools across 23 nat

Ask HN: Why is everyone here so AI-hyped?

I get it - LLMs do have some value, but not as much as everyone (especially those from AI labs) is trying to pitch. I can't help thinking that it's so obvious we are almost at the very top of this bubble - but here it feels like the majority of HN doesn't think like that...Yet just in 2026 we had:- AI.com was sold for $70M - Crypto.com founder bought it to launch yet another "personal AI agent" platform, which promptly crashed during its Super Bowl ad debut.- MoltBook-ma
