Lawful AI Daily Brief — 2026-05-02

🛠️ Tool Updates

• Claude Code v2.1.126 added gateway-backed /model discovery, claude project purge --dry-run, richer skill telemetry, and tighter MCP reliability.
• Codex CLI v0.128.0 shipped persistent /goal flows, codex update, configurable keymaps, stronger permission profiles, and improved plugin/hook lifecycle.
• Codex v0.129.0-alpha is already rolling — release train is still in espresso mode. ☕

💡 Tip of the Day

Treat permissions like policy-as-code and enforce them in CI.

⚖️ Legal x AI Watch

  • AthenaCore/AwesomeResponsibleAI — updated responsible AI regulation/resources list.
  • yagnesh44/Legis — full-stack AI compliance assistant for business regulations.
• Compliance nudge: map AI Act risk controls to concrete tooling checks (logging, human override, traceability) before merge, not after incident review.
