How to Reduce LLM Token Costs in Long Conversations: What Caching Saves, and Where It Stops
A long conversation costs far more than its number of turns suggests, because every request carries the system prompt and the entire history again, so total input grows with the square of the number of turns.

Claude API Pricing in 2026: Every Model per Million Tokens, and What Pro and Max Cost
The Claude API costs between $1 and $10 per million input tokens and between $5 and $50 per million output tokens on Anthropic's current models.

9 Essential Claude Skills for AI Engineers Building Production Agents + 1 Bonus Skill
Nine Claude Skills we run in production, plus one bonus, with the install command for each and what it saves you. Updated September 2026.

What is WebMCP? When and How to Use WebMCP in a Browser Agent?
The decision is per step, not per site: a page can expose a clean search tool and leave its account settings as ordinary DOM controls, so an agent that picks one mode per domain gets the worst of both.

Best Chatbot Memory Layer Plugins for Persistent User Data Retention and Memory
The best chatbot memory layer plugin captures durable user information, stores it with the right scope, retrieves only the relevant part of it, and updates or deletes it reliably.

The Best AI Agent Memory Layers in 2026, Ranked on Axes You Can Verify
No single AI agent memory layer is best in 2026. The right one depends on tenant isolation, contradiction handling, where you can run it, and what a retrieval costs, all of which you can check in an afternoon.

How To Use Jev In Your AI Agent: A Map Of Decision Seams
Jev cannot write a single word, which is the reason to care about it, so the question worth asking is never whether it should be your agent but which decisions inside your agent it should own.

AI Agent Evals: The Judge Is The Part Nobody Measures
An LLM judge scoring the same agent output three times will often hand back three different answers, and almost no guide to agent evaluation asks whether the judge agrees with itself or what it costs to run on everything rather than a sample.

Agent Memory Is a Real Problem. Most Builders Just Have Not Hit It Yet.
Every LLM call is stateless; agent frameworks solve that within a single run, which is why the memory problem only shows up once the run ends.

Best Claude Code Skills in 2026: 12 New Skills and What Changed
Important Claude Code skills shipped since February 2026, what each replaces, install commands, and the security problem that came with the marketplace.

MCP 2026-07-28: 20 Breaking Changes and the Errors They Cause
MCP 2026-07-28 removed sessions, the initialize handshake, and the ability for servers to initiate requests at all. It is wire-incompatible in both directions, so nothing breaks until a client upgrades underneath you. This is the full diff, every error you will hit with the fix for each, the HTTP+SSE deadline that two official sources disagree about, and a scorecard of what the release left alone.

Agentic Context Management: Agent Memory Is Not Merely a Storage & Retrieval Problem, It Is an Architecture Problem
We argue in our latest paper, that agent memory and cost is a lifecycle and architecture problem

An Anthropic Leader Told a Room of Founders to Stop Worrying About Context Windows. Here's the catch
An Anthropic researcher told a room of founders to stop worrying about context windows. Here is the question I did not get to ask, and why a bigger window solves short-term memory with bad tradeoffs and does nothing for long-term memory.
