Mozilla's independent Mythos evaluation (271 bugs, zero novel) forces Anthropic to reposition Glasswing from 'finds what humans can't' to 'finds it 12x faster.' Within 6 weeks, Anthropic updates Glasswing messaging to emphasize speed and coverage scale rather than capability breakthrough, and at least one Glasswing partner publicly frames their deployment as 'acceleration' not 'discovery.'
