Use Cursor 3.8's /automate skill to spin up a cloud agent that fires on GitHub events. Covers the five GitHub triggers added June 18, 2026, tool config, repo scope, and the Max Mode billing gotcha.

Claude Code's Week 28 releases (v2.1.202-v2.1.206, July 6-10 2026) teach auto mode to pause before an rm -rf whose path came from a variable that expanded to nothing, closing the classic rm -rf / footgun.

A stream keeps emitting after the user leaves the screen, its onData calls setState on a disposed State, and Flutter throws. Store the subscription, cancel it in dispose before super.dispose, and the callback can never fire on a dead widget. The full pattern for Flutter 3.44.

TPH is EF Core's default inheritance strategy: one table, one discriminator column. Here is how to configure the discriminator, share columns, handle nullable derived properties, and the gotchas on EF Core 11.

After an await, the widget may already be disposed, and calling setState throws. Guard the resume with if (!mounted) return; and, better, cancel the work that triggers it. The full pattern for Flutter 3.44.

Cursor 3.11 (July 10, 2026) adds side chats, durable parallel agent threads you spawn with /side or /btw and pull back into the main conversation with an at-mention. Plus Cmd+K transcript search and new cloud agent hooks.

A complete, working guide to output caching in an ASP.NET Core 11 minimal API: AddOutputCache and UseOutputCache, CacheOutput on endpoints and MapGroup, named and base policies, Expire, VaryByQuery and VaryByHeader, tag-based eviction with EvictByTagAsync, cache stampede protection, ETag revalidation, and a Redis backing store.

A deep dive into the built-in OpenAPI transformer pipeline in .NET 11: operation vs schema transformers, the context objects, execution order, DI-activated transformers, and recipes for headers, responses, examples, and per-property tweaks.

Owned entities carry a hidden key and reference identity that fights value objects. Here is how to map a value object as a complex type in EF Core 11, when to switch, and the gotchas.

Cursor 3.11 (July 10, 2026) lets cloud agents run hooks that see the conversation itself. Wire up beforeSubmitPrompt, afterAgentThought, afterAgentResponse, and subagentStart in .cursor/hooks.json to log every prompt, thinking block, and delegated task, then gate the risky ones.
