A developer has released Agentic Identity Broker, an open-source project shared on Hacker News that lets AI agents get scoped, revocable access to services like Google, GitHub, Databricks and Linear without being handed user credentials. It sits in the request path via gateways such as Agentgateway, handling OAuth2 delegation chains, token vaulting, consent management and audit logging on behalf of agents and MCP servers.

WileAI released a Pi extension, @wileai/pi-codex-connector, that lets any Pi-compatible model access connectors already linked to a user's ChatGPT/Codex account, such as GitHub, Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Linear and Figma. The extension launches a Codex app-server session with no model attached and exposes just three tools—codex_connectors, codex_connector_schema and codex_connector_call—so a Pi model can discover and invoke Codex connector tools without loading all their schemas directly. Write actions can be set to ask for confirmation, run automatically, or be blocked entirely via the PI_CODEX_CONNECTORS_WRITES setting.

Startup Ando exited stealth Thursday with a messaging platform positioned as an alternative to Slack, giving AI agents their own identities and inboxes so they can join channels, DMs and calls alongside human coworkers. Founder Sara Du said the app lets agents browse and join conversations, contribute to ongoing work, and message humans directly when needed, without a person relaying information between the agent and the team.

OpenAI has released an Agents API that gives developers programmatic access to its Codex agent harness, handling session management, orchestration, context compaction and recovery on OpenAI's servers. Applications supply tools and choose an execution environment, including an OpenAI-hosted sandbox where agents can run code, edit files, and connect to MCP servers. Billing follows standard model, tool, and container rates, and OpenAI has published sample use cases like incident-response bots and GitHub issue investigators.
