Morgan Stanley's Adam Jonas told clients to buy SpaceX before Starship Flight 15, with a $300 target about 75% above Monday's $171.09 close. Tying the call to dates means it gets checked twice within weeks, first by the test flight and then by third-quarter results expected in late October.

NYC Council Speaker Julie Menin issued her first subpoena to SpaceXAI, ordering Elon Musk or a representative to testify at an October 5 AI safety hearing. For a company valued near $2 trillion, the larger exposure is the city bills on the agenda and the Grok lawsuits it already faces.

Anthropic's CI job volume grew 25x in six months as coding agents raised pipeline load, The New Stack reports. Faster runners and test selection cut the cost of each run, yet repo tests still mock the service seams where distributed systems break.

Cloudflare's Workers Issues, now in open beta, groups production errors from one config line and sends them to Claude Code, Cursor or Devin. Detection and dispatch happen inside Cloudflare; the fix, and any gate before it ships, live in the agent's workflow.

Llama 8B on an RTX 4060 Ti 16GB fell from 42.5 to 3.8 tokens a second with a fifth of the model in system RAM, according to a dev.to benchmark. For a local coding agent, that makes VRAM for weights plus context the first spec to check, ahead of bandwidth.

Silent MCP disconnects in Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Codex and Open WebUI trace to 401 and 404 errors handled as one failure, a dev.to post argues. Tokens need a refresh and sessions need a new initialize, so clients and gateways need two recovery paths.

RevenueCat finds apps launched since 2025 share 3% of subscription revenue while launches run at 14,700 a month. AI-written code has moved the hard part of a new app to finding paying users, though some of that gap is only because younger apps have had less time to build up renewals.
