# Morning memo — 2026-06-07

**Source failures:** None observed.

## Worth attention

- **Val Town plugin for coding agents** — https://blog.val.town/plugin
  Val Town launched a plugin that enables 100ms deploys directly from Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. This puts serverless deployment inside your coding agent loop — write a val, deploy it without leaving the terminal. Directly relevant if you're running agentic workflows with Claude Code.

- **Ollama v0.30.6** — https://github.com/ollama/ollama/releases/tag/v0.30.6
  Two notable changes: `ollama launch omp` now integrates with Oh My Pi (an AI coding agent with IDE integration), and MLX embedding layers now use NVFP4 global scale for improved quantization on Apple Silicon. If you're running Ollama locally on Mac for embeddings, the NVFP4 change may improve quality at the same quantization level. Worth a quick test.

- **Formally verified polygon intersection — Opus 4.8 oneshots, prev models failed** — https://github.com/schildep/verified-polygon-intersection
  A builder reports the first formally verified polygon intersection algorithm, noting that Claude Opus 4.8 could one-shot the implementation while previous models failed. This is a practical capability signal — if you've hit walls with complex algorithmic tasks, the new Opus generation may clear them.

- **Lowfat — pluggable CLI filter that saved 91.8% LLM tokens** — https://github.com/zdk/lowfat
  Single binary that filters verbose CLI output before it reaches an LLM agent context. Builder-reported 91.8% token reduction on their workflow. Relevant for any agentic pipeline where you're piping shell output to a model — worth a quick look if token costs or context window pressure is a concern.

- **Vercel Sandbox Drives in Private Beta** — https://vercel.com/changelog/drives-for-vercel-sandbox-in-private-beta
  Vercel added persistent, attachable storage for their sandbox product — lifecycle independent of the sandbox itself. Create a drive once, mount it at a configurable path per sandbox. Early signal for stateful agent execution environments; not usable without getting on the waitlist.

- **skills.sh API now available** — https://vercel.com/changelog/the-skills-sh-api-is-now-available
  API access to 600K+ skills from the open-source ecosystem, authenticated via Vercel OIDC. Lets you query, search, and inspect skills programmatically from your own apps or agents. Relevant if you're building MCP servers or skill-routing infrastructure.
