Jul 28, 2026 By CircleCI In CircleCI
Stop context-switching between your IDE and CI dashboard. This video shows you how to connect Cursor to CircleCI using the CircleCI MCP server so your AI agent can read pipeline failures, validate configs, and trigger builds without leaving your editor. In this demo, we introduce a bug, let CI catch it, and watch the agent diagnose and fix it autonomously through a full green pipeline. No manual log hunting required.

How Collective IQ Turns Reactive IT into Truly Proactive IT

Jul 27, 2026 By Almaden AI In Almaden AI
Most IT organizations still operate in "firefighting" mode: an employee opens a ticket, the service desk investigates, depending on severity and complexity multiple teams or people are involved to diagnose, and then the appropriate person or team fixes the issue. The whole process then repeats for the next reported incident. This model doesn't scale, drains time and budget, and leaves a huge number of issues unresolved because many employees simply don't bother to report them. And, if and when they do report them, it's too late, the problem has already impacted their productive work.

Smarter onboarding and planning with Grafana Assistant: How to ensure observability is baked in from the start

Jul 27, 2026 By Sven Großmann In Grafana
It's Monday afternoon and that feature you've been working on is mostly done. There's just one item still sitting untouched at the bottom of the ticket: "Add monitoring." You know you should. You also know the sprint ends tomorrow, nobody on the team is an observability expert, and figuring out what to measure—let alone how to write the PromQL for it—feels like a project all on its own. So it gets the same treatment it always does: "We'll add it when it breaks.".

OpenAI Codex pricing in 2026: plans, token costs, and usage limits

Jul 27, 2026 By Lyne Carolyne In CloudZero
Codex pricing runs six tiers, from free to $200 a month, but the sticker price is not your real bill. OpenAI Codex pricing 2026 charges by the token, not the plan, a change that took effect in April. Plus is $20, Pro starts at $100, and everything past that depends on how many files you let the agent read. Most Codex pricing guides hand you a price list and call it done. That is like pricing a taxi ride by the door handle. The meter is what matters, and OpenAI put a real one on Codex this year.

Claude Opus 5 pricing: same sticker, different bill

Jul 27, 2026 By Lyne Carolyne In CloudZero
Claude Opus 5 launched July 24, 2026 at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens, identical to Opus 4.8. It delivers near Claude Fable 5 performance at half Fable's price and is now the default model on Claude Max. New effort settings let teams trade capability for token savings, which means two teams on identical pricing can now run up very different bills. Finance teams, that last part is your problem. Anthropic has shipped a model that costs exactly what the old one cost.
