Cohere announced on October 15 that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire Aisle, an AI security startup founded in 2025 whose system automatically finds and verifies software vulnerabilities and drafts patches for maintainers to review. Cohere plans to form a new security business unit, Cohere Cyber, serving enterprise and government customers, and to have Aisle's security researchers work with its model development team on using verifiable security problems to evaluate and improve future models. Aidan Gomez said Aisle is state of the art in defensive cyber and credited it with finding more than 200 high or critical CVEs in software such as curl, FFmpeg, FreeBSD and Wireshark, a claim attributed to Cohere that was not independently verified in the supplied reports. The move extends Cohere's sovereign AI push, which includes its previously announced merger plan with Germany's Aleph Alpha.
Frank Hidalgo, StackAI CTO at Asana, used GPT-6 Astra in Codex to profile and refactor the company's browser agent, producing an optimized workflow on GPT-6.1 Sol that averaged about $0.47 in estimated model cost and roughly four minutes per run across a 144-run study — 76x cheaper and 5x faster than the original production setup on an anonymized 'Model B'. He estimates the work would have taken one to two months by hand but took about a week. The gains came from extending caching to browsing history, raising the history budget to 480,000 characters and batching screenshot removal; Asana says the browser-navigation changes have shipped in StackAI.

Traditional development accumulates technical debt and leaves important knowledge scattered, forcing later changes to rediscover context. The plugin addresses this by turning each engineering cycle into a structured workflow and writing durable learnings into artifacts that subsequent cycles can use as grounding.
