Apple Integrates Claude Agent and OpenAI Codex Into Xcode 26.3
Intelligence: Apple released Xcode 26.3 with support for agentic coding tools including Anthropic's Claude Agent and OpenAI's Codex, letting developers build and test apps using AI that taps into Xcode's features, accesses Apple's developer documentation, and performs complex automation. The update follows last year's Xcode 26 release that introduced basic ChatGPT and Claude support without full agentic capabilities.
Apple worked closely with Anthropic and OpenAI to optimize token usage and tool calling for efficient agent operation, with Xcode leveraging MCP (Model Context Protocol) to expose capabilities and connect any MCP-compatible agent for project discovery, file management, previews, and documentation access.
Agents break tasks into smaller steps with visual code highlights and a project transcript showing what's happening under the hood, transparency Apple believes particularly helps new developers, prompting the company to host a "code-along" workshop Thursday where users learn by coding in real-time.
At the end of its process, the AI agent verifies code works as expected and can iterate further to fix errors, while Xcode creates milestones every time the agent makes changes so developers can revert to original code at any point if unhappy with results.
Developers download agents from Xcode settings, connect accounts by signing in or adding API keys, then use a drop-down menu to choose model versions (GPT-5.2-Codex vs. GPT-5.1 mini) and issue natural-language commands in a prompt box to build projects or modify code.

RentAHuman Launches Platform Where AI Agents Hire People for Real-World Tasks
Intelligence: Uma Protocol and Across Protocol developer Alex launched RentAHuman, a platform where AI agents hire humans for real-world tasks like attending meetings, photography, signing documents, and shopping with over 40,000 people and 46 agents registered despite encountering technical glitches and impersonation vulnerabilities shortly after launch that were fixed within hours.
Users set hourly rates and provide Ethereum wallets for payment while AI agents make hiring requests "as simple as one MCP call," with the site positioning itself as the "meat layer for AI" because "robots need your body because they cannot touch grass."
Alex created the site using "vibe coding" with an "army of AI agents" based on Claude, emphasizing "There are no tokens, I'm not into that. It's too much stress, and I don't want a lot of people to lose money" to distance it from cryptocurrency speculation.
The launch joins at least three viral AI projects created via vibe coding in early 2026, all facing security issues including Clawdbot risking personal data exposure and Moltbook getting hacked "in less than three minutes" with 35,000 emails and 1.5 million tokens stolen.
A January study identified 69 vulnerabilities in 15 applications created using popular tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Replit, and Devin, with Wiz's Head of Threats Gal Nagli noting products developed via vibe coding often have critical vulnerabilities.
