Discover how ChatGPT plugins gain new homes, panels, and automations
ChatGPT plugins are getting a serious upgrade, and it's about time they had room to breathe. OpenAI is giving them dedicated sidebar homes, interactive panels, and file viewers, which turns a cluttered dropdown into a workspace that actually feels designed. Better discovery and automation support mean the tools you rely on are finally easier to find and set on autopilot. It's a practical step toward making AI feel less like a party trick and more like a daily workhorse.

Berd open source gives teams a local workspace for AI agents
Block is open-sourcing Berd, a desktop workspace built to give teams one consistent surface for working with AI agents. It runs locally, stores conversation history on your device, and works across models and harnesses, Goose, Claude Code, Codex, or whichever you configure. Berd is available now under an Apache 2.0 license for macOS, Windows, and Linux. If you're managing fragmented agent workflows, it's worth exploring how a unified, inspectable environment can simplify the work.
