Two years after entry into force, the substantive requirements arrive. What changes, what was delayed, and what to do now.
The workflows that survived contact with real work, the ones that did not, and what the whole thing actually changed.
Default blocking and pay-per-crawl changed who can read the web. An assessment of what actually happened.
Large mechanical refactors are the clearest win available from coding agents. Here is the process that keeps them safe.
New OS versions, more on-device model surface, and a developer relationship that remains complicated.

Agent infrastructure at the OS layer, more of the developer stack open-sourced, and a strategy that has not changed in a decade.
The entry-level pipeline is breaking in a way that will be expensive in five years. Some of the fixes are cheap.
Context windows kept growing and retrieval did not die. It changed shape. Where the line actually sits now.
