1. Vercel Security Dashboard Reaches General Availability

Vercel. Vercel made its Security Dashboard generally available on all plans, giving teams a single view that automatically flags misconfigurations such as missing two-factor authentication, expired credentials, and publicly exposed deployments. The dashboard integrates with the CLI so agent-driven workflows can surface and remediate findings without leaving the terminal. Source

2. AI SDK Adds a Dedicated Z.AI Provider

Vercel. The AI SDK shipped @ai-sdk/zai@2.0.0, a major release that introduces a dedicated Z.AI provider with GLM chat completions, streaming, reasoning, tool calling, and multimodal inputs. The provider includes support for the GLM-5.3-Flash model, letting developers wire Z.AI models into AI SDK applications through the standard provider interface. Source

3. Gemini 3.5 Transcribe Comes to AI Gateway

Vercel. Google’s Gemini 3.5 Transcribe model is now available on AI Gateway in two variants, one for complete recordings and one for live streaming over WebSocket.

4. Meta Muse Image Arrives on AI Gateway

Vercel. Meta’s Muse Image model is now accessible through AI Gateway, handling both text-to-image generation and image editing within a single model. It accepts reference images to guide output, so developers can steer results toward a specific style or subject using the same endpoint. Source

6. Python Projects Gain CDN Routing Rules

Vercel. Python applications on Vercel can now use CDN-level routing rules to rewrite requests and set headers without a redeployment. The rules can be managed through the dashboard, CLI, or SDK, bringing Python projects in line with the routing controls already available to other runtimes. Source
