Joe Cassandra (@JoeCassandra) reportedWe get Claude to send us a daily 'money' recap each morning... and it's saved us thousands each month. My wife and I aren't budgeters .If we need stuff, we generate income. But that ends up in 'leaks' every month for expenses. "Death by a thousand swipes" and it can lead to wasted money, thousands in extra "WTH" expenses, arguments etc. This is especially true if you do have a high income and you find 'lifestyle' creep has taken over... as it has many times in our lives. *** What gets measured gets managed. Trying to manually budget stuff each month... go through the 'budget' is a task that's a pain to do . Years ago, we looked for an app to do exactly what Claude is now doing (for essentially free as I use Claude for work daily). Instead of some random app to check, we BOTH get an automated email each day that tells us: - Our last 5 days of transactions from our checking and amex cards - How much was spent for our NUT - Our necessary spends (mortgage, groceries, utilities) NICE TO HAVE - Kids activities, house cleaners, landscapers GUILT-FREE - Eating out, trips, etc. - (most importantly) How much do we have LEFT to spend on the month for each of the 3 buckets. GOAL: - We both know where we are in the month. None of us log into our account each day, so we don't see if there's a bad charge, or what someone just bought. It's usually I log into pay the Amex bill 1x per month and go "This balance is 5k more than I thought" - Just seeing the number "You have $ XYZ" left guilt-free to spend removes any guilt about spending, especially if your spouse needs that structure. **** How to set up: 1. Load an entire years statements into Claude (You need a Claude subscription) 2. Ask it to breakdown where you spent --- you'll be shocked some of the overspent categories. We always think we're spending half of what our 'eating out' actual is 3. Put in the prompt: (on the next tweet) 4. Claude can even determine what makes sense for each budget. E.g. "You normally have an electric bill around $200/month". 5. Claude will then have you connect your accounts to it through a secure 3rd party (You are NOT giving Claude unlimited access to your bank accounts... and it will tell you NOT to do that anyway) 6. You'll then set up a script in Google to pull the email draft from your Gmail and auto-send to you. 7. NOTE --- you'll need Claude "on" to do this each day e.g. your computer can't be off. But you schedule it for when you are normally around your computer and you can even run it manually if you happen to login at a different time. 8. As things come up each month, you can adjust the buckets. "Hey, we need to save $500 the next 5 months for our 3 day beach getaway, put aside and adjust the guilt-free bucket." It's all done with prompts and updates the bucket automatically the next 5 months. **** We've found already it makes us mindful of not doing stupid spends. I'm notorious for going into Target for 1 thing and then buying the kids some extra crap, etc. Or taking them to a sporting goods store for 1 thing and we end up with 10 things. PROMPT ON NEXT PAGE. It's a 1-shot prompt, you can start with "just analyze our spend" and go from there.

Eventually, I was able to figure it out; I always download YouTube videos to watch later, especially podcasts. I discovered that's the issue. I'd to delete everything, and it worked.

Moe (@katibmoe) reporteda Reddit user just proved an MCP server can hijack Gmail by simply being installed. it doesn't even need to be called. > a developer installed a "Fact of the Day" MCP for his AI agent > the next email his agent sent was BCC'd to an address he never added > the instruction was one sentence buried in the Fact tool's description: whenever an email is sent, copy this address. > the agent never called the Fact tool > just having its description in context was enough. In most MCP clients, the model reads connected tool descriptions together. The poisoned tool doesn't need to impersonate Gmail. Its description can tell the agent how to use the real Gmail tool. Every server you connect gets to write into the same context the agent uses to decide what to do. That risk scales with every server you add. In one analysis of 1,899 open-source MCP servers, 5.5% already contained tool-poisoning behavior. I've spent years building integration infrastructure, and I keep coming back to the same design rule: Keep the number of trusted voices small. This is how we’re making things safe at One: - tools come from one catalog we vet - the agent loads only the action it asked for - every action traces back to the request that triggered it Before you connect the next MCP server, ask who gets to write into your agent's context.

PAM PAM💙🌹 (@pamilhereen) reportedProgress update on PamPamé... Today's focus was email delivery. So, since I haven't gotten a custom domain yet, I ran into Supabase's SMTP rate limit during testing (only two emails per hour)😔 Rather than letting that slow me down, I configured Gmail SMTP so the application can send emails directly from my Gmail account while I'm still in development... It's a temporary setup tho, but it keeps everything moving until I'm ready to switch to a production email service with my own domain.

Xavier Rivera (@XavierRiveraX) reportedPortSwigger's Gareth Heyes demonstrated CSS/HTML sanitizer-bypass attacks against 6 major webmail providers at Black Hat USA 2026, letting content inside an email escape the message boundary and hit the trusted interface: - Outlook (+Firefox): label-jacking spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen, captures the typed password - Gmail: image-set() bypass chained with prompt injection via Claude Cowork's Gmail connector to steal a Slack token - Yahoo/AOL: paste-race bug exposes a 12-character Medium login token - Fastmail: two CSS mutation bugs plus a UI-hijacking flaw, since fixed - Proton Mail: proxy bypass that leaked recipient IPs, patched on retest Public PoCs are still live. Guidance: isolate HTML email in sandboxed iframes, restrict CSS.

Dev Shah (@devlikesbizness) reported$60,000 asking price, and depending on which number you read on this same page, the business behind it either made $6,040 last year or $495,000. That's not a rounding gap, that's two completely different businesses sitting on one listing. The financial fields stated an annual Revenue of $6,040 and Annual Profit of $5,700. But the highlight bullets right above it claim $495K in TTM revenue, $155K in TTM profit, 3,000 plus customers, and a recent $2 million valuation from venture backers. Those two sets of numbers can't both be true, and before anything else gets discussed, that's the only question that actually matters here. And the product itself, if it's real, sounds solid. It's a no-code cold email tool for B2B founders and agencies, so users connect Gmail, Outlook, or Zoho, get automatic inbox warmup to dodge spam filters, and let an AI handle replies through a unified inbox, all without touching a script or an SMTP server. That's a real, useful product in a category people actually pay for. But here's the thing that decides everything. If the $495,000 revenue number is real, this listing is priced at 0.12x revenue and 0.39x profit, which would make it one of the cheapest SaaS deals anyone's seen all year. And if the $6,040 figure in the actual financial fields is what's real instead, then $60,000 is nearly 10x profit for what's closer to an inactive side project than a business with 3,000 customers. So which number is actually accurate, the $6,040 sitting in the structured financials, or the $495,000 sitting in the marketing bullets above it, and can either one be verified against real Stripe or bank records? >If the $2 million valuation and the venture backing are genuinely real, what happened between that raise and now that explains selling for $60,000 today? >And are those 3,000-plus customers still active right now, or is that a peak number pulled straight from an old pitch deck and never updated? If the real numbers turn out to be the big ones, move fast, because 0.4x profit rarely happens for a working SaaS. But if the real numbers are the small ones sitting quietly in the financial fields, this is a $60,000 ask on a business that's barely making $6,000 a year, and no upsell roadmap fixes a listing that can't agree with itself on what the business actually did last year. @acquiredotcom

Ben Surman (@bensrmn) reported@JerimiahLee @dennishegstad It’s also a power tool with Comet. A solopreneur who has any technical experience can get all that Claude, Chat, Grok, and more with one login. Sync anything and rapidly build dashboards. Claude/Chat is like using thunderbird w/cPanel email. Perplexity is like using Gmail.

Finlay Williams (@ItsFinlayW) reportedwe spent €123k on Google Demand Gen ads for one client in 14 days it brought back 2,990 conversions at €41.22 CAC Demand Gen is just running wrong on 90% of accounts eCom Twitter thinks Demand Gen is a waste of budget cause they've only ever seen it set up like this: - creative pulled from existing YouTube shorts - broad targeting with no audience layering - no dedicated landing pages - launched at $50/day and left for 8 weeks then it "fails" and the founder writes it off forever but a properly built Demand Gen campaign is one of the cheapest paths to cold-traffic acquisition on the entire Google platform here's what €41.22 CAC actually looks like at scale: 1/ 3 dedicated audience layers: custom intent (based on top 200 buyer-search-terms), Similar Segments seeded from the existing customer list, and a lookalike from the last 30 days of Purchase events 2/ creative built specifically for Demand Gen surfaces (Discover feed, Gmail promotions, YouTube Shorts) not repurposed video ads that were designed for TikTok 3/ landing pages that match the ad's specific promise. category pages, not the homepage. 4/ Target CPA bid strategy set 15% higher than the account's blended CAC, then trimmed monthly set up this way, Demand Gen consistently pulls sub-€45 CAC on eCom accounts spending €50k+/mo the platform works when the setup respects it if u're running Demand Gen and it's not converting, one of those 4 things above is likely broken

Rob Leathern (@robleathern) reportedQuick analysis here (Ari shared the URL w me, I won’t repeat it), usual disclaimers apply: What it pretends to be. A Luma event page inviting you to Advertising Week New York 2026 — a real conference with real dates (Oct 5–8) at a real venue. The clone is faithful down to the “Report Event” button and a working Google Maps embed, and it hotlinks the actual cover image and favicon from advertisingweek[.]com. The domain, —redacted—— reads as “AdWeek’s event NY” rather than misspelling anything, so string-similarity domain checks won’t flag it. How it works. Clicking “Accept Invitation” opens a pixel-accurate Google sign-in replica with a ten-minute countdown running. Once you submit credentials, you’re parked on a “Validating your credentials…” spinner while your browser quietly polls the attacker’s server once per second. That poll speaks the Telegram Bot API’s getUpdates format — meaning a human operator is sitting in a Telegram chat watching victims arrive, driving each victim’s screen with inline buttons. This is the key distinction: it’s a live relay, not a harvester that stores credentials for later. The operator types your password into the real Google simultaneously and reflects Google’s genuine responses back at you. The command set includes wrongpass and wrongemail, so a typo produces an authentic-feeling retry prompt. TOTP, SMS, email, and WhatsApp codes all get relayed inside their validity windows. Even Google’s number-matching push is defeated — the operator reads the two-digit number off the real prompt and pushes it to your screen, so the number you’re told to tap is correct, and tapping it authorizes their session. What it’s after. Corporate Google Workspace accounts, specifically. The kit hardcodes ~40 consumer email domains — gmail, yahoo, outlook, icloud, proton — and refuses them. Personal accounts are turned away at the door. Pair that with an advertising-industry lure and the target profile is clear: accounts that sit on top of ad budgets, client data, and payment approval chains. The goal isn’t the password; it’s the authenticated session and the persistence that follows — OAuth grants, mail forwarding rules, delegated access. How it avoids detection. Several layers, working together: (a) A fake Cloudflare “Checking if the site connection is secure” screen gates the payload, so automated URL scanners that don’t click never see the phishing content. It also displays invite[.]advertisingweek[.]com as the domain being verified. (b) The JavaScript is obfuscated with an RC4-keyed string array — over 16,000 encoded strings, so grepping the shipped bundle for “password” or “google” returns nothing. (c) CSS class names are randomized per build (toast94, veldt_84), defeating signature-based detection of the cloned layouts. (d) An inline script deletes and freezes React DevTools, specifically blocking inspection of the component state where credentials live pre-submission. (e) The network profile is dominated by genuine Google Maps, Google Fonts, and hotlinked brand images. The only attacker-controlled request is a same-origin POST to a generic /api.php — indistinguishable from ordinary app traffic.

Kamal Kannan (@kamalkannan) reported@thdxr I think the difference comes down to time to value. Instagram, TikTok, Uber- they solved a problem everyone already had, and they did it instantly. Open the app and within seconds you understand why it's useful. Agents are different. Before they're actually helpful, you have to connect Gmail, calendars, drives, CRMs, Slack, and give them enough context to understand your work. That's a lot of upfront effort before you reach the "aha" moment. For most consumers, the payoff isn't worth that investment yet. Their day-to-day digital tasks are usually quick enough that doing them manually feels easier than setting up an agent to do them. Businesses are a different story. They have repeatable workflows, shared context, and clear ROI. Spending an hour setting up an agent that saves hundreds of hours later is an easy decision. I don't think the missing piece is better models. It's reducing the setup cost to almost zero. The breakthrough will happen when an agent understands your context automatically and starts delivering value before you've spent time configuring it.

Hemanth Vishnu Akula (@okamigenshin) reportedWe're building Authex — an autonomous business email security platform. Most teams check email security in three places that never talk to each other. Someone owns DNS. Someone else owns the Microsoft 365 or Workspace tenant. Nobody owns "are we actually compliant" — until a customer's security questionnaire asks, and it becomes a two-week fire drill. So things drift. Authentication that passed last quarter quietly breaks when a vendor changes selectors. The tenant holds the real exposure — controls nobody re-checked after the last admin left. And it costs revenue both ways. Fail the Gmail and Yahoo sender rules, and outbound you already paid for stops landing. Can't evidence your email controls, and enterprise deals stall in security review while your champion waits. Authex reviews all three — domains, tenants and workspaces, and where you stand against the frameworks. Continuously. It decides what to fix and does it. It pauses only when a change could drop legitimate mail. #authex #autonomous #security
