KittyBrowser drops terminal browser for coding agents

KittyBrowser is an open-source terminal browser that drives headless Chrome and renders pixel-accurate layouts using the Kitty graphics protocol. Built to run alongside coding agents like Claude Code, it provides CLI and MCP interfaces so humans and agents can navigate, inspect, and debug local web apps together.

// ANALYSIS

AI coding agents typically build web interfaces completely blind, forcing developers to leave their terminal to inspect layouts and console errors. Putting an interactive, agent-controllable browser directly inside a terminal pane closes that feedback loop and makes human-agent pairing on frontend development significantly faster.

–Renders real fonts, images, and layouts using the Kitty graphics protocol across Ghostty, kitty, WezTerm, and Rex without text-mode approximations.
–Includes `kb ctl` commands and an MCP server enabling agents to click elements, inspect DOM nodes, read CSS cascade rules, and capture screenshots.
–Features native Claude Code skill integration so agents can launch the browser, load local dev servers, and verify their own changes in real time.
–Written in Rust for minimal resource overhead and fast frame streaming, with support for remote workflows over SSH.

Cursor links marketplace malware to Fireworks breach

Cursor published its post-investigation findings on the October security incident, detailing how an exposed Fireworks AI credential compromised unredacted coding agent traces and allowed an attacker to inject trojanized Claude Code extensions into Cursor's marketplace cache. The team confirmed fewer than 0.01% of customers had credentials leaked, with all unauthorized activity contained and inference workloads migrated off Fireworks.

Clerk ships GA Poppy agent support

Clerk has reached general availability for its Personal Agent Protocol (Poppy) integration, allowing developers to authorize AI agents via a dashboard toggle and `poppy: true` middleware flag. The feature exposes a standard `/.well-known/poppy.json` discovery endpoint so autonomous agents can securely open authenticated browser sessions on behalf of users.

ADE ships cross-machine agent screen control

ADE rolled out cross-machine agent orchestration, enabling an agent running on Windows to interact directly with macOS or Linux screens and terminals. The update also extends remote build timeouts up to 18 minutes for iOS tasks and introduces automatic work-copy cleanup upon turn completion.
