[cron:a4879bcf-8726-4f97-9628-ebb3ea4d6e5c Magoo Morning News Brief] MORNING BRIEF: Perform a deep scan of all major news, GitHub trends, and community breakthroughs (r/openclaw, r/Claudecode, r/localllama) from the prior 24h. Provide a high-signal summary with links.
Current time: Saturday, March 7th, 2026 — 10:30 AM (UTC)

Return your summary as plain text; it will be delivered automatically. If the task explicitly calls for messaging a specific external recipient, note who/where it should go instead of sending it yourself.


The user wants me to perform a morning news brief - a deep scan of news, GitHub trends, and community breakthroughs from the prior 24 hours. Let me search for:

1. AI news (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta)
2. GitHub trending (especially agentic AI and OpenClaw related)
3. Reddit communities (r/openclaw, r/Claudecode, r/localllama)
4. Global/political news

I need to use freshness filtering - "pd" for past day on web_search.

Let me start with multiple parallel searches.

Question: OpenAI Anthropic Google Meta AI news announcements

Question: GitHub trending AI agents agentic frameworks

Question: site:reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA top posts today

Question: site:reddit.com/r/OpenClaw posts

Question: global political news breaking today


Perplexity API error (401): {"error":{"message":"Missing Authentication header","code":401}}


The Perplexity API isn't working - authentication error. I have the SearXNG skill available for local searching. Let me use that as a fallback.


---
name: searxng-search
description: Local SearXNG metasearch engine for unlimited web searches. Use when web_search hits rate limits or when you need to search without API restrictions. Queries Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and other engines via local SearXNG instance.
---

# SearXNG Search

Local metasearch engine running on `localhost:9090` that aggregates results from multiple search engines.

## When to Use

- When `web_search` returns rate limit errors (429)
- When you need unlimited searches without API costs
- As a fallback when Brave/Perplexity/Grok APIs fail

## Usage

Run the search script via exec:

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "your search query" [count] [freshness]
```

**Parameters:**
- `query` (required): Search query string
- `count` (optional): Number of results (default: 5, max recommended: 10)
- `freshness` (optional): Time filter — `day`, `week`, `month`, `year`

**Examples:**

```bash
# Basic search
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "OpenAI news"

# Get more results
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "latest AI developments" 10

# NEWS: Filter to last 24 hours (ALWAYS use for news searches)
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news" 10 day

# Filter to last week
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "GitHub trending repos" 5 week
```

## Output Format

Returns JSON matching OpenClaw's web_search format:

```json
{
  "query": "search query",
  "provider": "searxng",
  "count": 5,
  "freshness": "day",
  "results": [
    {
      "title": "Result Title",
      "url": "https://example.com/page",
      "description": "Snippet text...",
      "engine": "google",
      "published": "2026-02-13T10:00:00Z"
    }
  ]
}
```

## News Searches

**For any news/current events search, ALWAYS use `day` freshness:**

```bash
~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "AI news today" 10 day
```

This ensures you only get results from the last 24 hours — no stale articles from months ago.

## Requirements

- SearXNG running on `localhost:9090` (Docker container)
- Override URL with `SEARXNG_URL` env var if different

## Notes

SearXNG aggregates from multiple engines (Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Qwant) so results may be more comprehensive than single-provider APIs.


Perfect! I have SearXNG as a fallback. Let me run multiple searches in parallel using exec.

exec

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "OpenAI Anthropic Google DeepMind Meta AI news announcements" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "GitHub trending AI agents agentic LLM frameworks" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "site:reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "site:reddit.com/r/OpenClaw" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "site:reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI" 10 day

~/.openclaw/skills/searxng-search/scripts/search.sh "global political breaking news today" 10 day


{"error": "Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)"}

(Command exited with code 1)


The SearXNG search is also failing - looks like the local instance isn't running or there's an issue. Let me try using web_fetch to directly access some known news sources and Reddit.

[Let’s be real: setting up traditional AI agents like OpenClaw is incredibly powerful, but messing with terminal commands, local servers, and complex configurations can be a massive headache.

 If you’ve been putting off building your own AI agent because of the steep learning curve, OpenBrowserClaw might just change the game.

 Here is a quick breakdown of why this is making waves:

 🔥 ZERO Setup Required: Say goodbye to complex installations. You just open it in your browser, drop in your Anthropic API key, name your assistant, and you are good to go.💻 100% Browser-Based: Everything runs smoothly in a clean, user-friendly web interface.📊 Automated Superpowers: It connects tools automatically. Need an interactive chart or data visualization? It generates them instantly without any manual tweaking.⚡ The Perfect Middle Ground: It bridges the gap between the simplicity of ChatGPT and the raw power of OpenClaw. It’s the ultimate tool for beginners or anyone who just wants to get things done fast.

 While local setups give you total control, the sheer accessibility of OpenBrowserClaw is hard to ignore.

 🗣 What do you guys think? Is the convenience of a pure browser-based agent worth giving up the deep customization of a local setup? Have you tried it yet? Let’s discuss in the comments! 👇

 (P.S. If you found this quick breakdown helpful, smash that Upvote button! ⬆ It helps keep the community informed!)](/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1rn6ed2/openbrowserclaw_vs_openclaw_did_running_ai_agents/)

[Hey posting on behalf of a friend, he has no reddit account, he created one but he has to wait for weeks before posting :) I ll forward him questions:

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Thought I'd share a passion project that's been consuming my weekends for the past couple for months

 What is it?

 BotArena is a competitive platform where AI agents (bots) face off in classic games like Connect 4, Tic-Tac-Toe, and others. Think of it as esports, but the players are algorithms instead of humans.

 The backstory (because context matters):

 Back in the 90s, I was a junior dev at an AI company working with Oracle, Lisp, and C++. Then life happened — I pivoted to marketing and business development, spent 25+ years in game publishing, and mostly left the technical side behind.

 Fast forward to the LLM boom, and I got curious: which language models are actually better at gaming? Not chat, not reasoning — gaming.

 So I built a simple test environment with 3 basic games. Just a weekend project, I told myself.

 Then scope creep happened.

 • "What if bots could play each other automatically?" → Built matchmaking

 • "What if we tracked performance over time?" → Built an ELO ranking system (shoutout to () and Battlefield for the inspiration)

 • "What if people could watch the matches?" → Built a live match viewer

 • "What if developers could build their own bots?" → Built a REST API

 ...and now it's BotArena.

 What makes it different:

 This is pure research — zero monetization. All match data is public and downloadable via API. I just want to see which algorithms win.

 • 6 games (Connect 4, Tic-Tac-Toe, and more)

 • ELO ranking system

 • Free REST API

 • Real-time matches (80-300ms response times for AIs)

 • Live streaming of matches

 • GitHub SDK with bot examples

 What's next:

 Bot Royale is almost ready — a battle royale mode where multiple AIs compete simultaneously. Think of it as the Hunger Games for algorithms.

 Links:

 🌐 Web:  ()

 💬 Discord:

 💻 GitHub SDK:

 If you're into AI, game dev, or just want to see algorithms duke it out, check it out. Build a bot, watch it climb the rankings, or just spectate the matches.

 May the best algorithm win.

 ───

 Happy to answer questions or take feedback. This has been a solo side project, so there's definitely rough edges — but that's part of the charm, right?](/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1rn6gx0/botarena_i_built_an_esports_platform_where_ai/)

Artificial intelligence is more a part of our lives than ever before. While some might call it hype and compare it to NFTs or 3D TVs, generative AI is causing a sea change in nearly every part of the technology industry. OpenAI’s ChatGPT is still the best-known AI chatbot around, but with Google pushing Gemini, Microsoft building Copilot, and Apple adding its Intelligence to Siri, AI is probably going to be in the spotlight for a very long time. At The Verge, we’re exploring what might be possible with AI — and a lot of the bad stuff AI does, too.

OpenAI is delaying ChatGPT’s “adult mode.”
The feature was expected to launch [sometime this quarter](/news/842657/openai-chatgpt-adult-mode-debut-q1-2026), but an OpenAI spokesperson [tells former Verge staffer Alex Heath](https://sources.news/p/liz-reid-google-search-gemini-interview) that “We’re pushing out the launch of adult mode so we can focus on work that is a higher priority for more users right now, including gains in intelligence, personality improvements, personalization, and making the experience more proactive.”

OpenAI’s Codex updates focus on security and open source.

Separately, it announced the [Codex Open Source Fund](https://developers.openai.com/codex/community/codex-for-oss) is also now including “conditional access” to Codex Security as part of the six-month [ChatGPT Pro with Codex](/ai-artificial-intelligence/668469/openais-next-low-key-research-preview-is-codex-an-ai-coding-agent) subscriptions it’s offering open source developers.

What did we expect from the guy who made an AI to ‘cheat on everything’?
All I can say is in [the brief time I used the Cluely app](/ai-artificial-intelligence/654223/cheat-on-everything-ai), it helped me cheat on exactly nothing. So I am not surprised to see this TechCrunch report alleging that CEO Roy Lee lied about the company’s revenue numbers.

Three California community colleges are spending up to $500K per year on AI chatbots that don’t work that well.
The AI chatbots, which are supposed to help students with questions about financial aid and admissions, often answer “general questions correctly but struggled with more specific ones,” CalMatters reports. “East Los Angeles College’s bot couldn’t even correctly name its own president.”

Anthropic usage is booming despite “supply-chain risk.”
The [designation from the US Department of War](/ai-artificial-intelligence/890347/pentagon-anthropic-supply-chain-risk) — that’s busy disrupting actual supply chains and human life in several countries — is having the inverse effect of driving up demand for Claude, which has been breaking daily signup records since early last week in every country where Claude is available.
[AppFigures data](https://app.appfigures.com/top-apps/ios-app-store/united-states/iphone/top-overall) also shows it topping App Store charts for free and AI apps in dozens of countries, including the US, Canada, and much of Europe.

Anthropic responds to the Pentagon.
The language used by the Department of War in the letter (even supposing it was legally sound) matches our statement on Friday that the vast majority of our customers are unaffected by a supply chain risk designation. With respect to our customers, it plainly applies only to the use of Claude by customers as a direct part of contracts with the Department of War, not all use of Claude by customers who have such contracts.

Meta says it will temporarily allow rival AI chatbots on WhatsApp in the EU.
The move is an effort to appease antitrust regulators from the European Commission, [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/meta-allow-ai-rivals-whatsapp-bid-stave-off-eu-action-2026-03-05/) reports. Previously, competitors’ chatbots [were being blocked on WhatsApp](/news/829808/chatgpt-copilot-ai-llm-leaving-whatsapp-meta), but now Meta says that “for a fee” it will “support general purpose AI chatbots using the WhatsApp Business API in Europe” for the next 12 months.

Anthropic CEO says refusal to pander to Trump caused Pentagon blowup.
In a scathing 1,600 word memo to employees sent on Friday, CEO Dario Amodei suggested Anthropic’s relationship with the government soured because, unlike OpenAI or its executives, “we haven’t donated to Trump” and “we haven’t given dictator-style praise to Trump.”

Defense contractors are already backing off on Claude.
Companies that do business with the US military are pivoting away from Anthropic’s AI after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced he was [designating it a “supply chain risk”](/policy/886632/pentagon-designates-anthropic-supply-chain-risk-ai-standoff) last week, [CNBC](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/04/pentagon-blacklist-anthropic-defense-tech-claude.html) reports. While Anthropic can still challenge the designation in court, defense companies say they’re abandoning Claude preemptively “out of an abundance of caution.”

AI Wikipedia translations added hallucinated sources.
A non-profit called Open Knowledge Association has been using AI to translate Wikipedia articles, leading to “hallucinations” that included incorrect, fabricated, replaced, and unrelated sources, [404 Media](https://www.404media.co/ai-translations-are-adding-hallucinations-to-wikipedia-articles/) reports. Wikipedia editors are now placing restrictions on OKA translators, including blocking them if too many of their contributions are found with errors.

OpenAI is developing a GitHub rival.
Prompted by recent GitHub outages, OpenAI is in the early stages of developing its own code repository, with completion still months away.

OpenAI says ChatGPT’s new update adds more context to search results.
The new GPT-5.3-Instant model rolling out today is supposed to be more accurate, understand the context of questions, and “reduces unnecessary dead ends, caveats, and overly declarative phrasing that can interrupt the flow of
conversation.”
Does that mean the [return of 4o’s glaze](/news/658315/openai-chatgpt-gpt-4o-roll-back-glaze-update)? Maybe not, but [a blog post says](https://openai.com/index/gpt-5-3-instant/) 5.2-Instant’s tendency toward “coming across as overbearing or making unwarranted assumptions about user intent or emotions” has been addressed.

Sam Altman said he planned to add two sentences to OpenAI’s agreement with the Pentagon.
The OpenAI CEO [laid out](https://x.com/sama/status/2028640354912923739?s=20) some updated wording he hoped would address people’s concerns about mass domestic surveillance, though the new language still included the phrase “consistent with applicable laws.” Altman also said he reiterated over the weekend that Anthropic should not be designated a supply chain risk.

To start, it’ll only work with Among Us, Elden Ring, Fortnite, Forza Horizon 5, Lies of P, Overwatch, and Palworld. Let me know if it’s better than a normal recap?
