Vext 1.2.0: Two-Pass Diarization, a Self-Healing Event Tap, and Five Languages

The engineering counterpart to the Vext 1.2.0 announcement. Why streaming diarization alone collapses fast back-and-forth, why we removed Apple's echo-cancellation API instead of fighting it, and how a global event tap can lie about being enabled after sleep.

Project-local MCP tools in Octomind 0.29.0 — drop a shebang script in .agents/tools/, commit it to the repo, every developer's agent gets the tool automatically

Custom MCPs Belong in Your Repo: A Cure for Agent Drift That Takes 60 Seconds

AI agents drift — they invent shell commands, hallucinate URLs, guess at internal CLIs. The standard fix is "write a custom MCP server," but most projects don''t need a server. Octomind 0.29.0 lets you drop a shebang script into .agents/tools/, commit it to git, and turn a 50-line shell wrapper into a project-scoped MCP that every developer''s agent uses on every turn.

Octofs: The File Server That Stops Your AI from Breaking Your Code

How we built an MCP filesystem server that catches AI hallucinations before they corrupt your files — with fuzzy matching, hash-based line IDs, atomic writes, and a progressive matching strategy that just works.

Vext 1.1 - Voice to text for Mac with screenshot capture, speaker recognition, AI cleanup, and meeting transcription

Vext 1.1: Voice to Text for Mac — Built for AI Workflows
