Browser Use opens BU Ultrafast to every US plan, free tier included
BU Ultrafast is now on every Browser Use Cloud plan in the US, including free, and its waitlist has closed. It is selected by setting model to bu-ultrafast on POST /api/v4/runs and takes no model parameters, while bu-fast runs the same agent with more reasoning per step. The entry gives no speed or price figures. It is the first feed entry since the August 23 consolidation release, which brought single-request V4 session opens, paged transcripts and a correction to BYOK cache-read billing.
Sanity's MCP server now explains failed validations and stops skipping them.
Sanity made Context Knowledge Bases generally available on November 10, letting agents read datasets, websites and files over MCP. The days since have been follow-up: MCP server 2.46.1 and 2.46.2 return stable error codes, explain incomplete validations and stop writes from skipping schema checks, while the console now shows when each robot token was last used. Media Library made PDF previews zoomable and folder counts in big libraries about seven times faster.

Speed is becoming a setting the caller picks: bu-ultrafast and bu-fast are one agent at two reasoning depths. That follows the August work, where X402 metering made the browser open the billable unit and scheduling let agents run unattended. A parameterless model on the free plan also gives new users a simple way to try the V4 runs endpoint.
The US-only wording is the visible limit, so availability elsewhere is the next step to watch. How BU Ultrafast is priced beyond the free plan is not something this entry settles.

Sanity is making the agent-facing parts dependable: the MCP server is getting the error codes and validation rules a production client needs. Access visibility for tokens and members follows the same push to let teams audit what automated clients do.
Expect more MCP server point releases around validation and Knowledge Base commands, and more usage data on tokens and agents in the console.
