Beating AI Express News: AI coding tool Pi has officially integrated MCP in its version 0.99.0. The original "No MCP" label on its official site was crossed out and updated to "Now with MCP+Codemode". Pi has long openly criticized common MCP integration approaches. Last year, developer Mario Zechner found in tests that Playwright MCP’s 21 tool descriptions take roughly 13,700 tokens, while Chrome DevTools MCP’s 26 tools occupy around 18,000 tokens. He argued that an overabundance of tools wastes context window space, is difficult to combine, and the large volume of returned content directly enters the model’s context. This time Pi adopted a different integration strategy: MCP tools are not exposed to the model by default, instead managed via Codemode. The model can write JavaScript to call, combine, and filter tools in parallel, only sending necessary results back to the context. Tools can also be loaded lazily, no need to declare all upfront. Pi team member Earendil has not retracted prior criticism, noting many MCP servers still overload with excessive tools and text results, and the tool combination issue remains unresolved. Pi now retains MCP’s general interface, while using Codemode to avoid the usage patterns it was most dissatisfied with before.

SlowMist, a leading blockchain security firm, announced in a statement that Bitget has commissioned its security team to investigate the hot wallet asset theft incident that occurred on September 25. As of September 29, SlowMist’s investigation found the attack involved malicious activities targeting a third-party security product, the wallet application’s host, and a custom withdrawal tool developed by the attacker. The investigation revealed the attacker’s key attack methods: exploiting a zero-day vulnerability in the third-party product to carry out malicious operations; using an internal employee’s identity to gain unauthorized access to the third-party product’s management platform on September 25; obtaining and deploying a custom withdrawal tool tailored for the wallet’s withdrawal logic; on-chain activity began at 02:31 UTC+8 on September 25, with the attacker transferring assets across multiple blockchains over roughly 2 hours and 52 minutes; the attacker later attempted to alter withdrawal records and triggered additional BTC withdrawals. SlowMist noted that it is still investigating how the attacker performed lateral movement between the affected systems.
