Developer Action Items
- โ Diff the official changelog for Anthropic / Claude / Codex before you bump โ APIs, defaults, and removed flags only.
- โ Install through the vendor's documented channel in staging; keep a one-command rollback and time-box the canary.
- โ Grep your repo for old flag names, lockfile pins, and plugin versions that the notes mark as breaking.
- โ Prefer the first patch cut over the day-zero tag unless you have a reason to be on the leading edge.
- โ If HN Claude/Codex/Fable did not name a region, plan, or SKU, screenshot the official availability line before you promise it to users.
