Dispatch from the moving-picture parlour · ChatGPT vs Claude, 2026
✦ By Owl from Diagon Alley
Newly apparated tools, launches and discounts worth a Knut.
Just Apparated
Five million weekly users and growing. Now Codex deploys sites, connects 62 apps, and ships six plugins tailored to analysts, marketers, designers, investors, and bankers.
Just Apparated
A modest but tangible improvement on 4.7 — priced identically, and now shipping with dynamic workflows, effort controls, and a fast mode three times cheaper than before.
Just Apparated
From brainstorming to batch editing, Google's new agent reasons through complex creative tasks — all while remaining under the user's control.
Just Apparated
Every claim cites a source. Ships with a checklist, llms.txt, an MCP server, and an Agent Skill. Free and open source.
Just Apparated
A new generative model for residential architecture produces full floor plans and exterior elevations from a room list — no architect required.
Fresh from the Workshop
A new frontend framework treats the DOM as the source of truth and asks why rendering a button ever needed a build pipeline.
Fresh from the Workshop
A growing collection of browser-based design and dev tools: free, untracked, and built by someone who still loves the weird, classic web.
Just Apparated
A new open-source repo brings official GSAP prompts and agent skills to Cursor, Claude Code, and 40 other agents in one incantation.
