In this Ship It Weekly special, Brian breaks down Claude Mythos Preview and Project Glasswing, and why this story matters beyond normal AI launch hype.

Anthropic is treating Mythos like a real security inflection point, not just a better coding model. Project Glasswing is their coordinated effort to get early access into the hands of defenders, critical software maintainers, and major infrastructure organizations before similar capability becomes more broadly available. If OpenClaw was about agents becoming a new control plane, this episode is about what happens when finding ways into messy environments and control planes starts getting faster too.

We walk through the practical angle for DevOps, cloud, platform, and infra teams: exploit timelines may be compressing, platform debt becomes attacker leverage, and the boring work most orgs treat like cleanup suddenly looks a lot more like frontline security work. We also zoom out to the business side, including why banks, regulators, and government officials are already paying attention.
