Zhipu's launch of GLM-5.1 and Cognition's release of SWE-1.6 were the big highlights with respect updates to agentic codel models. OpenAI's $100/month ChatGPT Pro plan with a 5x Codex usage definitely makes it quite attractive. Elon Musk teases multiple large xAI models (up to 10T parameters) in training

Came across this on the OpenAI Codex rate card page
Note: As of April 2, 2026, we’ve updated Codex pricing to align with API token usage, instead of per-message pricing. This change is applicable to new and existing ChatGPT Business and new ChatGPT Enterprise plans - please refer to the new rate card in the section below for details.
Customers on existing Plus, Pro and Enterprise/Edu plans should continue to use the legacy rate card. We’ll migrate you to the new rates in the upcoming weeks.
All customers should carefully review both rate cards to understand the pricing changes, and how they apply to your plan.

Z.ai Launches GLM-5.1, Top Open AI for Coding and Long Tasks
Z.ai released GLM-5.1, a 754-billion-parameter open-weights model excelling in coding and extended agent tasks, topping open-source benchmarks like SWE-Bench Pro at 58.4% and Terminal-Bench 2.0 at 66.5%. It outperformed GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus on self-reported scores by autonomously handling demos such as building a complete desktop with 50+ apps or boosting a vector database 6x via thousands of tool calls. Weights are freely available on Hugging Face under MIT license, with quantized versions for local runs and API access through multiple platforms,

Anthropic Launches Claude Managed Agents in Public Beta
The public beta offers APIs with a pre-built agent harness that manages secure sandboxes, stateful sessions, error recovery, and scaling for long tasks. Developers define tasks, tools, and instructions while the system runs code, browses the web, and integrates with tools like MCP—all viewable in the Claude Console. Companies like Notion, Rakuten, Asana, and Sentry are already building with it, from department agents to AI teammates. Early users report up to 10x faster development and higher success on tough tasks

I would be interested to see if anyone has recommendations for AI code review tools? Am testing a few out at the moment so would welcome any additional recommendations
via Brent Maxwell
I recommend Devin: https://app.devin.ai/review. We've been using Cursor's BugBot for a year, and I've tried a few other options (including rolling our own), but Devin is EXCELLENT. We implemented it about a month ago, and it's basically a replacement for GitHub PR reviews as well as Bugbot.
In our experience, a lot of these PR agents pick up individual bits of code that needs work, but Devin aggregates findings across multiple files and groups them into functional problems and improvements. The UI is very seamless and rich.
Sounds like a paid promotion: it's not. I'm just excited because this has solved some shortcomings that have been annoying me for about a year. Just give it a free test by pointing it at any open source repo. Literally 10m to see whether you like it or not.
Came across this Github repo with what I consider decent content on Hermes.

Expectations high for these upcoming models from xAI, hopefully they are competitive in agentic coding and also offer good price and are well supported by all the harnesses. June-July is going to get very interesting.
