Peter James writes about his discovery that asking Meta's Muse agent to archive the files visible in its session resulted in a massive data export containing much of its internal runtime environment. The resulting 6.8 GB unpacked archive included Ubuntu system files, documentation for unreleased features like "Meta Home Link," various skill instructions, and sensitive-looking configuration files such as SSH keys and agent logs. While James reported the findings to Meta's bug bounty program, the company marked the report as "Not Applicable."
- The export contained a 68-skill directory covering services from Google Workspace to travel and shopping.
- Documentation revealed an experimental hardware integration called Meta Home Link using ESP32-C5 chips for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE access.
- Muse utilizes a nightly "dream" process that reviews conversations to update user guidance in files like ALIGNMENT_SYNTHESIS.md.
- Memory is managed via plain Markdown files, with an hourly background job extracting claims into searchable Postgres databases using embeddings.

Anthropic's attempt to remove leaked Claude Code client source code from GitHub resulted in the accidental takedown of numerous legitimate forks of its official public code repository. While the overzealous takedown has been reversed, the company faces a significant challenge in containing the spread of the leaked code. The initial DMCA notice targeted a repository hosting the leak and nearly 100 forks, but expanded to impact over 8,100 repositories, including those forking Anthropic's public code. Coders complained about being caught in the dragnet. Despite efforts, copies of the leaked code remain available on platforms like Codeberg, and "clean room" reimplementations are emerging, potentially complicating legal issues.
The Shades of Coffee redesigned Gaggia steam valve is a direct replacement for the original, addressing the common leaking issue with a user-serviceable design featuring a PTFE seal instead of a brass needle valve. It's compatible with most Gaggia Classic models and includes optional service kits for maintenance.
