**1. Anthropic ships tool-use streaming for Claude API** (Score: 10/10)

Streaming now works with tool calls, eliminating the blocking wait for function results. Practical impact: agent frameworks can show intermediate steps in real-time. This is the #1 feature request from developers building multi-step agents.

**2. Ollama 0.5 adds vision model support** (Score: 9/10)
Source: GitHub Release | Published: 6 hours ago

Source: OpenAI Blog | Published: 14 hours ago
