[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: Thursday, February 19th, 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.


This is a cron-triggered task for a morning news brief. I need to:
1. Perform a deep scan of news across multiple categories
2. Use proper date filtering (freshness="pd" for past day)
3. Check for prior reporting in memory to avoid duplicates
4. Return a high-signal summary with links
5. Output as plain text

The current time is Thursday, February 19th, 2026 at 10:30 AM UTC, so I'm looking at the past 24 hours (February 18th).

Let me start by:
1. Searching memory for recent news briefs to avoid duplicates
2. Then perform web searches across different categories with freshness filtering
3. Compile a high-signal summary

Categories to search:
- AI/ML news
- GitHub trending
- r/openclaw
- r/Claudecode
- r/localllama
- General tech news

I'll perform a deep news scan for the morning brief. Let me search across all categories with proper date filtering.

Even if all these obstacles are surmounted, the software will ship late.

Recently launched in technical preview, [GitHub Agentic Workflows introduce a way to automate complex, repetitive repository tasks](https://github.blog/ai-and-ml/automate-repository-tasks-with-github-agentic-workflows/) using coding agents that understand context and intent, GitHub says. This enables workflows such as automatic issue triage and labeling, documentation updates, CI troubleshooting, test improvements, and reporting.

We began GitHub Agentic Workflows as an investigation into a simple question: what does repository automation with strong guardrails look like in the era of AI coding agents? A natural place to start was GitHub Actions, the heart of scalable repository automation on GitHub.

GitHub Agentic Workflows leverage LLMs' natural language understanding to let developers define automation goals in simple Markdown files describing the desired outcome. The coding agent then executes those instructions with GitHub Actions.

This enables agentic workflows to build on existing automation infrastructure for permissions, logging, sandboxing, and auditability, while incorporating [additional security controls](https://github.github.com/gh-aw/introduction/architecture/) that make it "practical to run agents continuously". The architecture makes

Meta’s biggest election investment aims to prevent state legislation that it fears could inhibit artificial intelligence development. Its spending starts this week in Texas and Illinois.

Meta is preparing to spend $65 million this year to boost state politicians who are friendly to the artificial intelligence industry, beginning this week in Texas and Illinois, according to company representatives.
The sum is the biggest election investment by Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. The company was previously cautious about campaign engagements, making small donations out of a corporate political action committee and contributing to presidential inaugurations. It also let executives like [Sheryl Sandberg](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/technology/meta-antitrust-trial-sheryl-sandberg.html), who was chief operating officer, support candidates in their

## KeSSie Conversation Memory Architecture

 Sliding Window KV over Linear Conversation Arrays Addendum to KeSSie Foundation Model Specification February 2026 - v1.1 (Implementation Status Update)

## 1. Overview: The Problem with KV Cache

 Standard transformer attention requires storing key-value pairs for every token in the context window, at every layer. For a model with L layers, H attention heads, and context length C with head dimension d, the KV cache memory requirement is:

M_kv = 2 x L x H x C x d x sizeof(dtype) (1)
 For concrete numbers, consider a Mixtral-scale model:

 Parameter

 Notes

 Layers (L)

 32

 Standard transformer depth

 KV Heads (H)

 8

 Grouped-query attention

 Head dim (d)

 128

 Standard head size

 Context (C)

 128,000

 128K window

 Dtype

 float16 (2 bytes)

 Half precision

M_kv = 2 x 32 x 8 x 128,000 x 128 x 2 = 16.78 GB (1a)
 That is 16.78 GB of VRAM consumed solely by the KV cache for a single user session at 128K context. This scales linearly with context length:
