• Microsoft’s Foundry networking guide is the strongest fresh Microsoft-side infrastructure read this pass: it argues the hard part of shipping Foundry Standard Agents is locking down BYOVNet design before deployment, recommends a /24 delegated agent subnet, and treats private DNS, firewall allow-lists, and NSGs as first-day architecture, not cleanup work.

• agentgateway shipped v1.4.0-beta.1 on Jul 25, adding custom token types, OAuth 2.1 exchange defaults, Cross App Access auth support, Gateway-TCP conformance, s390x support, and other release-series plumbing for AI/MCP traffic. The repo is still actively moving, with the release page showing the project’s steady cadence and the main repo framing it as a full connectivity layer for agentic AI.

• GitHub Copilot CLI v1.0.75 added Claude Opus 5 support on Jul 24, which is the clearest new terminal-agent signal this pass: the CLI is keeping pace with the model rollout across the broader Copilot surface. Source: https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/releases
