Amazon Marketplace froze the foundation model, fused holistic and readability signals, and trained a cheap calibrator. Anthropic's 207,049 sessions and GPT-6 Cyber show why task and scope diagnostics still matter.
A Linux-kernel audit shows why terminal success is not proof of the assigned path, while a 2B document extractor and Kimi's open-weight release sharpen task-specific deployment decisions.
Google's forced model substitutions make compatibility testing urgent, while new browser and harness evidence shows why the orchestration layer belongs in every model release.

A malicious package in Cursor's marketplace shows why extension identity, update provenance, endpoint evidence, and served-model behavior all belong in the production AI control plane.
Just-in-Time tests turn a code diff into an executable counterexample, but the production design still needs a separate oracle, review economics, and a policy boundary the generator cannot rewrite.
