**Week of 2 — 8 October 2026**

Every week, I manually curate tools, research, and services that are genuinely useful for OSINT, digital investigations, security research, and adjacent fields.

No hype. No SEO noise. No “AI startups that change everything”.

Only things you can **open, verify, and actually use**.

#### 🧭 Featured Projects

**Get SMS Online** has been providing temporary phone numbers for SMS verification since 2016. Our service lets you receive SMS online and verify accounts on more than 700 popular websites and apps, including social media platforms, email providers, messaging apps, online marketplaces, dating services, and much more:

**Cyb_Detective’s Substack.** Every day about OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) tools and techniques:

#### 🤖 Universal Search & AI

**Motifcode** is a terminal coding agent in the shape of Claude Code — a transcript above, a bordered prompt below, `/` commands, `@` mentions, a permission prompt, a `.motif/` directory behind it - whose tool set, prompt layout, parser and failure handling are **consequences of things that are specifically true about [Motif-3](https://huggingface.co/Motif-Technologies/Motif-3)**, most of them measured rather than assumed. It is not a general harness pointed at a different base URL:

**JEVGrep.** Find code by asking what it does. A CLI for coding agents that uses Jev to discover relevant files and source context:

🔗 [https://github.com/dzhng/jevgrep](https://github.com/dzhng/jevgrep)

**ForeMerge.** Catch intent conflicts before code conflicts. The open-source coordination protocol for coding agents, built above Git:

🔗 [https://github.com/naw103/foremerge](https://github.com/naw103/foremerge)

**OpenRig.** Build your own network of agents from Claude Code, Codex and Pi: persistent teams with roles, shared context and owned work:

🔗 [https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig](https://github.com/mvschwarz/openrig)

**cmux.** Open source Ghostty-based macOS terminal with vertical tabs and notifications for AI coding agents. Built for multitasking, organization, and programmability:

🔗 [https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux](https://github.com/manaflow-ai/cmux)

**AIPex.** AI browser automation assistant, no migration and privacy first. Alternative to Manus Browser Operator, Claude Chrome and Agent Browser:

🔗 [https://github.com/AIPexStudio/AIPex](https://github.com/AIPexStudio/AIPex)

**Coven.** Local-first runtime for project-scoped AI coding-agent sessions, with durable state, authority boundaries, and multi-harness interoperability:

🔗 [https://github.com/OpenCoven/coven](https://github.com/OpenCoven/coven)

**SAA SDK.** Addressee detection for voice agents: device-directed speech detection that runs before STT, so background speech, side conversations, and the agent’s own TTS echo never trigger it. No wake word, model-agnostic, drop-in for LiveKit, Pipecat, ElevenLabs, Twilio, and OpenAI. The layer your VAD and turn detection are missing:
