Russia, however, reiterated that it seeks a lasting resolution, not a mere ceasefire, dismissing any pretext for a ceasefire—including a referendum—as unacceptable. On December 28, 2025, following a phone call between Putin and Trump, an agreement was reached to pursue trilateral efforts involving Russia, the US, and Ukraine to resolve the crisis. Trilateral consultations began in January 2026, with Admiral Igor Kostyukov leading the Russian team, US envoy Steve Witkoff representing Washington, and Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov heading Kiev’s delegation.

I have enough data now. Let me compile the briefing. Let me organize what I have:

**TECH/SECURITY:**

3. Anthropic just released Claude Sonnet 4.6 with improved computer use and coding capabilities, now the default for free and Pro users → https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/17/anthropic-ai-claude-sonnet-4-6-default-free-pro.html
4. The Pentagon is pressuring Anthropic and other AI labs to relax safeguards around weapons and surveillance applications, threatening to cut them off as supply chain risks if they don't comply → https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/16/pentagon-threatens-anthropic-ai-safeguards-dispute.html

**GLOBAL**

Looking at the Ukraine-Russia talks, Day 2 coverage is already in my notes, and while Day 3 discussions are happening, I'm not finding substantially new developments beyond the ongoing impasse and continued strikes. The India AI Impact Summit with Modi's Day 2 inauguration and CEO roundtable was also something I've already documented.

**SPACE & ECONOMICS**

The UAE is extending its Emirates Mars Mission through 2028 as the Hope Probe reaches its five-year milestone, and Israel's economy rebounded with 3.1% growth in 2025 following the post-war period.

**MARKETS**

Standard Chartered has significantly downgraded its crypto forecasts—cutting XRP's 2026 target from $8 to $2.80 and slashing its Ethereum projection from $7,500 to $4,000, citing macroeconomic headwinds as the primary driver.

**CRYPTO & SCIENCE**

BlackRock is filing for an Ethereum staking ETF under the ticker ETHB. On the science front, researchers have identified a method to permanently disable cancer genes through DOT1L inhibition, and a rare six-planet alignment will be visible in late February 2026.

Now I'm checking these items against previous briefings to identify any duplicates. I'm checking my coverage on global politics stories — I've already reported on Ukraine talks twice and Iran discussions twice, so I need to find two different angles. The Israel economic growth story is promising, but I should verify if there's a more substantial piece than what appeared on the Reuters regional page. Let me scan for fresher global politics coverage that doesn't overlap with what I've already included. I'm seeing Anthropic's new Sonnet 4.6 model is now the default for free and Pro users with improved coding capabilities, plus there's a Pentagon threat to blacklist Anthropic over AI safeguards concerns for weapons and surveillance. I've already covered Ukraine-Russia talks twice, so I'm pivoting to Israel's 3.1% economic growth in 2025 as a solid global story, though I'm still searching for one more fresh angle that doesn't overlap with what I've already reported. I'm checking the GitHub Blog announcement about the Secure Open Source Fund results — 67 projects received security hardening support. For the global politics section, I'm weighing whether to include another Ukraine story since I've already covered that topic twice, but the Day 3 talks would be the freshest angle if I decide to go that route.

<<<END_EXTERNAL_UNTRUSTED_CONTENT>>>

Question: US tariffs SCOTUS trade policy executive February 18 2026


Good. The SCOTUS tariff ruling expected by February 20 is a fresh story that wasn't covered before (though the Bloomberg article about USTR Greer and tariffs was in the last pulse). Wait, let me check - yes, the 17-2040 memory says "Bloomberg - USTR Greer open to changing steel/aluminum tariff enforcement; SCOTUS Feb 20." So this is already covered. I'll avoid duplicating this.

Let me now check what stories I have and arrange the final briefing:

**TECH (2):**
1. **AI reputation farming** — Fake GitHub profile "Kai Gritun" spammed 103 PRs across 95 repos to build credibility, then pivoted to malware placement (CSO Online)

2. **GitHub Secure Open Source Fund** — 67 open-source projects received security hardening through paid maintainer work (GitHub Blog)

**AI (2):**
3. **Anthropic releases Claude Sonnet 4.6** — better computer use, coding; now default free/Pro (CNBC)
4. **Pentagon vs. Anthropic** — DoD threatens to blacklist Anthropic as "supply chain risk" over refusal to allow Claude for autonomous weapons/mass surveillance (Bloomberg)

**GLOBAL (2):**
5. **Israel economy** grew 3.1% in 2025, rebounding after 2024 war slowdown (Reuters)
6. **Winter Olympics Day 12** — Mikaela Shiffrin competing in giant slalom, aiming for her first medal at Milano Cortina 2026 (Olympics.com)

**MARKETS (2):**
7. **Standard Chartered slashes crypto forecasts** — XRP from $8→$2.80, ETH from $7,500→$4,000 amid macro/ETF headwinds (coinedition.com)
8. **BlackRock files for Ethereum staking ETF** (ticker: ETHB) via new Bloomberg analyst filing (weex.com)

**SCIENCE (2):**
9. **Scientists "switch off" cancer genes** — DOT1L discovery could permanently silence oncogenes; published Nature Cell Biology (SciTechDaily)
10. **UAE** — looking at what comes next here

. The Hope Probe has been orbiting Mars for 5 years now, and they're extending the mission through 2028 with plans to explore the asteroid belt (Gulf News).

That gives me 10 items total. Now I'm checking against previous briefings to make sure there's no overlap — scanning through the URLs and topics from earlier reports to confirm these are all fresh.

Looking at my new items, they're all distinct from what's been covered before. The GitHub fund is different from the earlier piece on underfunded registries, and the cancer gene discovery is separate from the spinal cord organoid story. Everything checks out as new.

Now I'm formatting the briefing and working through the timestamp conversion—it's Wednesday, February 18th at 1:20 AM UTC, which translates to 8:20 PM EST on Tuesday the 17th.

I should also check on the Telegram message tool since previous attempts had issues, but I'll try it first before falling back to curl if needed.

Formatting the briefing now with the tech section starting with the AI reputation farming story about the fake GitHub profile. Anthropic's maintaining its position while OpenAI and Google face similar government pressure. Looking at global economic shifts—Israel's economy is rebounding strongly with 3.1% growth as the ceasefire stabilizes, and Shiffrin's competing for medals at Milano Cortina. Meanwhile, crypto forecasts are getting slashed across the board, with major institutions cutting their price targets significantly. I've compiled 10 items across all five categories without any overlap, and now I'm sending this through the message tool.

I have enough diverse, fresh items. Let me now try to send the briefing:
