Platform moves led the day: Vercel can now run any Dockerfile, Google rolled out Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash, and Sonnet 5 became the default in Claude Code with a 1M-token context and promo pricing. Governance and evaluation advanced with Tailscale’s agent auditing pattern, IBM/Hugging Face’s ScarfBench, and Google’s TabFM, while Anthropic saw export restrictions lifted on key variants.
