Apiiro’s Guardian Agent, Ai2’s Open Coding Agents, and more — Daily News Digest

Apiiro announces Guardian Agent

Guardian Agent rewrites developer prompts to make them more secure and ensure they meet current needs of the software architecture, runtime environments, organizational policies, and regulatory requirements.

According to the company, because of AI, security debt is being added faster than it can be fixed, and asking developers to fix vulnerabilities after code is written is no longer sufficient. “The reality is clear: Detection will never scale at the speed of AI. Only prevention will,” the company wrote in a blog post.

Ai2 releases Open Coding Agents

Open Coding Agents are a family of open agents that utilize a training method that makes it easier for developers to build their own coding agent trained on their internal codebases.

The first release is SERA (Soft-verified Efficient Repository Agent), which uses a fine-tuning method that can be specialized to any codebase. The company is also releasing SERA’s training data to help researchers study what worked and improve on it.

“Accessible open models can now inherit strong agentic behavior through a simple, reproducible pipeline—no large-scale RL infrastructure or engineering team required. Case in point, SERA was built largely by a single Ai2 researcher,” Ai2 wrote in a blog post.

Rocket Software launches AI assistant for operational diagnostics

Rocket EVA allows teams to ask questions about their core systems and trace issues from initial symptoms to system interactions to the responsible code. It also provides recommendations to help teams resolve issues more quickly.

“By tracing issues from the first symptom to the exact line of code, EVA provides a unified path to insight without the multi-product complexity other vendors require,” said Michael Curry, president of data modernization at Rocket Software. “Its ability to extend diagnostics across platforms and integrate third-party MCP tools reduces the time to resolve issues, setting a new benchmark for how enterprises maintain resilient, high‑performing systems.”

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...

October 2025: AI updates from the past month

OpenAI announces agentic security researcher that can find and fix vulnerabilities OpenAI has released a private beta for a new AI agent called Aardvark that acts as a security researcher, finding vulnerabilities and applying fixes, at scale. “Software security is one of the most critical—and challenging—frontiers in technology. Each year, tens of thousands of new vulnerabilities are discovered across enterprise and open-source codebases. Defenders face the daunting tasks of finding and patching vulnerabilities before their adversaries do. At OpenAI, we are working to tip that balance in favor of defenders,” OpenAI wrote in a blog post . The agent continuously analyzes source code repositories to identify vulnerabilities, assess their exploitability, prioritize severity, and propose patches. Instead of using traditional analysis techniques like fuzzing of software composition analysis, Aardvark uses LLM-powered reasoning and tool-use. Cursor 2.0 enables eight agents to work in pa...
