Rivian said its cars will eventually be able to run AI agents from other companies, not just its own in-car assistant. Rivian’s CEO RJ Scaringe made the comments at TechCrunch Disrupt, and he did not give a date for when the change will happen. The assistant’s decisioning will shift to selecting external frontier models when questions are more complex, while safety-critical vehicle controls remain off-limits to agents.
Parallax launched today as an AI code editor that runs coding agents and coordinates multiple model subscriptions in one app. It supports 240+ models drawn from the user’s own subscriptions. Captain automates tasks and can fast-merge PRs in one click, with auto fallback to the next model when a subscription runs out.
OpenCode 2.0 overhauls how its coding agent runs tools and manages sessions, including making the local service auto-start and updating the API and client packages. The update adds 80+ internal plugins that keep the Plugin API maintained and brings MCP servers into Code Mode by default. As a result, users and scripts get simpler local orchestration, more capable agent-to-tool workflows, and breaking changes for 1.0 plugins and the server/API structure when upgrading.
Toad was launched as an automation tool that lets Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client run commands and work with files on multiple machines via one MCP server. It uses a small service installed on each machine with no open ports and requires approval for every change. As a result, users can centrally control remote file/command access from their MCP clients with explicit per-change approval.
