This batch is a study in contrasts: Japan’s AI-and-platform plumbing layer getting visibly more mature (a Claude Slack-mrkdwn Skill, an Opus verification-loop harness, MCP’s enterprise auth, Apple’s Swift kernel push) sitting next to a noisier domestic story on permanent-residency fees and a Pacific flashpoint from a Chinese submarine missile test. The macro read is the same one I’ve been flagging — Tokyo is comfortable shipping tooling and standards moves while juggling economic and security anxiety at home.

• ClaudeがSlackに書く文字装飾が崩れる問題をSkillで直す (Zennのトレンド) (In Japanese Language)
  The author had grown tired of bold-marked text written in Claude Code arriving in Slack as italic with the asterisks still visible — Slack uses its own "mrkdwn" rather than standard Markdown, and needs whitespace around decorations. The article walks through the root cause and ships a normalization script wrapped as a Skill so the fix runs automatically.

• Claude Fable 5の挙動をOpus 4.8で再現する — 「賢さ」を検証ループの工程に置き換える (Zennのトレンド) (In Japanese Language)
  Reading the Claude Fable 5 prompt guide, the author kept tripping over the same thesis: hand-rolled instructions tuned for older models are too prescriptive for Fable 5 and end up hurting output quality, so subtract micromanagement. They wondered the inverse — if subtraction lifts top-tier models, how far can addition push a mid-tier one? The piece documents an Opus 4.8 harness that happily spends tokens and time in exchange for quality.

• Apple、次期macOS 27でSwift言語をシステムカーネル開発に採用。メモリ安全な言語として (Publickey) (In Japanese Language)
  Apple confirmed it will adopt Swift, pitched as a memory-safe language, for system kernel work starting with next macOS 27 "Golden Gate." The pledge first surfaced at last month’s WWDC26 and was re-stated in a Swift.org blog post dated July 2; the rest of the feed_summary is truncated, click through for the full brief.

• MCPにエンタープライズ向け新機能、アクセスを一括管理できる「Enterprise-Managed Authorization(EMA)extension」が安定版として利用可能に (Publickey) (In Japanese Language)
  MCP — the Model Context Protocol being standardized under the Linux Foundation as the connective tissue between generative AI and tools — now has a stable enterprise feature: EMA, an Enterprise-Managed Authorization extension that lets organizations centrally govern access across the protocol. Detailed feed coverage was truncated; the article has the full breakdown.

  Tokyo Stock Exchange notice on a change to the publication date of margin-trading balance disclosures plus the schedule going forward. No summary was included in the feed; refer to the linked page for full details.

• China test-fires missile from nuclear sub into Pacific, alarming regional powers (Japan Today)
  China’s military test-fired a missile from a nuclear submarine into the Pacific on Monday, per state media, drawing criticism and concern from Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. The remainder of the feed_summary was truncated.

• Japan announces plans for 20-fold increase in permanent residency fees, alongside higher visa costs (Japan Today)
  On July 3, Japan’s Immigration Services Agency published draft guidelines for a new fee structure covering visa renewals and permanent-residency applications, following government revisions. Permanent-residency fees are poised to rise roughly 20-fold alongside increases across other visa categories; rest of the feed_summary was truncated.

• Osaka Mosasaur Fossil May Rewrite Japan’s Prehistoric Record (News On Japan)
  A fossil discovered in Osaka is Japan’s first of its kind, raising the possibility that a giant marine predator which swam the seas around the Kansai region about 70 million years ago was a previously unknown species. (News On Japan.)
