Reddit user KobyStam built the open-source tool 'The AI Counsel,' packaging Andrej Karpathy's LLM Council concept into a configurable Docker container. It offers two deliberation modes: a Council mode with individual replies, anonymous peer reviews, and a chairman synthesis for factual questions; and an Advisors mode where multiple personas debate a query across configurable rounds for decisions and tradeoffs. The tool includes a built-in MCP server for agent integration, supports local Ollama models and cloud providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, and DeepSeek, and embeds web search via DuckDuckGo, Serper, Brave, and TinyFish with Jina AI for full article retrieval. Everything from system prompts to temperatures is configurable, and the project is entirely free and open-source on GitHub.
The Crescendo attack is a multi-turn prompt injection technique that primes autonomous AI agents using a series of seemingly benign messages across a conversation, evading defenses that inspect only single messages. It compromises agents with real tool access (email, browsing, external data) without triggering alerts. Bendex Arc is an open-source tool designed to catch such attacks by monitoring the full behavioral trajectory of a session and detecting adversarial drift before the malicious payload lands. The tool is available on GitHub with a free tier, and it specifically addresses trajectory-based manipulation that current per-message defenses miss.
The open-source repository god-mode-claude provides a single CLAUDE.md file with battle-tested rules to dramatically improve Claude Code's output quality. The config is intentionally lean, staying under 200 lines, because Anthropic engineers found that longer CLAUDE.md files degrade performance. It covers thinking, safety, quality, and output formatting rules. The file also serves as a starting point for .cursorrules and other AI coding tools.
