Meet Token Saver: An Open-Source MCP Extension Using Local Hybrid RAG to Cut Claude PDF Token Costs 90-99%

AI developers, researchers, and professionals frequently hit a frustrating wall when analyzing large documents with LLMs: the hidden, compounding cost of context windows. Pasting a 200-page PDF into a chat isn’t a one-time charge. Because the conversation history is re-sent to the model on every single turn, that massive document is paid for again with […]

What the CMS HCC transition means for the future of open analytics

Open-source technologies have become a standard part of modern analytics, data science and AI. Organizations across regulated industries are adopting tools like Python to accelerate innovation while building more flexible analytics environments. But adopting open-source technologies introduces a new challenge. As organizations modernize, they must also maintain the governance, transparency […] The post What the

OpenAI report links coding agents to faster science software builds

OpenAI has released a new field report tracking eight scientific computing projects where coding agents cut runtimes. The report documents projects that used Codex on its own in five cases and a combination of Codex and Anthropic’s Claude Code in three others. Worth flagging upfront: this is a vendor publishing a survey of its own

Liquid AI Releases LFM2.5-Encoder-230M and LFM2.5-Encoder-350M: Bidirectional Encoders That Stay Fast at 8K Context on CPU

Liquid AI has released two open-weight bidirectional encoders, LFM2.5-Encoder-230M and LFM2.5-Encoder-350M. Both are masked language models built on the LFM2 hybrid backbone. Both carry an 8,192-token context. Encoders sit underneath classifiers, intent routers, safety filters, and PII detectors. Those jobs run continuously, usually without a GPU, and increasingly on longer inputs. BERT established the class.

Kimi AI and kvcache-ai Open Sources ‘AgentENV’: A Distributed System that Powers Agentic Reinforcement Learning (RL) Training for Kimi K3

Moonshot AI’s Kimi team and kvcache-ai have open-sourced AgentENV (AENV), a distributed platform for running agent environments at scale. AgentENV powers agentic reinforcement learning (RL) training for Kimi K3, Moonshot’s 2.8-trillion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model. The code ships under an MIT license. Why Environment Infra Holds Back Agentic RL Agentic RL does not just sample text. It

Perplexity Releases pplx, a Single-Binary CLI That Puts Its Search API in the Terminal for Coding Agents

Perplexity has released pplx, an official command line client for its Search API. The tool returns grounded search results and extracted page text, all as JSON. According to its docs, it targets humans and coding agents equally. It is not a chat client. There is no conversational mode, no model selection and no synthesized answer.

Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, IBM, and others back open-weight AI

Two dozen companies and organisations signed an open letter urging US policymakers to protect open-weight AI models. The letter, published today (PDF), carries signatures from a list that spans direct commercial rivals and organisations with little obvious overlap in business model: Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, IBM, Dell Technologies, CrowdStrike, Palantir, ServiceNow, Hugging Face, Perplexity, Mistral, Andreessen
