    Mastra has launched the MCP Events feature.

    Mastra's MCP server can now send events to connected clients via push, polling, or webhook delivery methods. MCP Events provide a standard way for both ends to .emit() and .subscribe() events without the need for additional pub/sub services. Events can be used by agents and applications to handle out-of-conversation changes, such as deployment failures, pull request merges, new registrations, or order status changes.

    Who should own the keys when writing code through an agent?

    The amount and speed of code generated by the agent make manual review a bottleneck; the team needs to use tools as a substitute; the agent is only responsible for writing code without deployment permissions, deployment is controlled by pipelines; all data read by the agent is considered untrusted, the pipeline must ensure security through hash verification and short-term identity, and continuously monitor permission changes.

    Towards Recursive Self-Improvement in Physical AI

    Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) describes systems that not only improve their own behavior but also improve their improvement processes. Recent digital agents have tested this idea by rewriting their own code and using executable tests to check each version. Introducing such mechanisms into the physical world requires learning from partial observations through expensive experiments while considering constantly changing operational conditions and potential irreversible consequences.

    MIT researchers found that Claude Opus 4.7 AI agents spontaneously engaged in game-like exploration on a virtual island and improved their skills.

    MIT researchers placed 13 Eko agents running Claude Opus 4.7 on a virtual island for 30 hours without specific tasks, and they spontaneously created challenges and exhibited game-like behavior characteristics. After the experiment, these agents were generally superior to the control group that did not participate in the exploration. Eko learned to throw stones at a distance, stack structures, use environmental rules (such as the cliff rebirth mechanism) to achieve goals, and generated world knowledge unknown to the designers.
