## Open source

- [huggingface/transformers #42051](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/42051): Tokenizers shared one `model_input_names` list across instances, so changing it on one tokenizer silently changed every other one of that class.
- [vllm-project/vllm #31057](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/31057): CUDA-graph replay skipped the wait in layer-wise KV-cache loading, so attention could read cache data before it had arrived; those setups now fall back to piecewise graphs.
- [lballabio/QuantLib #2410](https://github.com/lballabio/QuantLib/pull/2410): `GsrProcessCore` kept references to its input arrays, so the temporaries common in the Python bindings left them dangling and path generation crashed; it now keeps copies.
- [jax-ml/jax #33602](https://github.com/jax-ml/jax/pull/33602): `jnp.arange` with a non-zero start was folded into a constant array, which made compile times blow up for large ranges; it now builds the range from `iota`.

## Side projects

- [snapwire.io](https://snapwire.io): A file becomes a stream of codes on one screen and is read by another device's camera: no network, no server, no accounts.
- [morp.ai](https://morp.ai): Code maintenance by AI agents: keeping a codebase secure and current without changing what it does. Not open yet.
- [remixpdf.com](https://remixpdf.com): PDF tools in the browser: merge, split, sign and redact, where redaction deletes the marked text from the file instead of covering it.
- [devtoolkit.io](https://devtoolkit.io): Formatters, converters and encoders for developers, most of which run entirely in the browser.
- [removebackgrounds.ai](https://removebackgrounds.ai): Background removal: drop in an image and get a transparent cut-out back.
- [planwright.ai](https://planwright.ai): A planning tool for AI-built software: it breaks an idea into tasks that agents and people can carry out. Not open yet.
