OpenAI launches Daybreak Red Team (agentic web-app pen testing, early access) and Daybreak Defense Factory (agents that turn findings into patches)

Before connecting repos: scope which repositories and findings the agents can read, and keep human review on every proposed patch, as OpenAI's own flow requires.
No pricing was given; Red Team access is by waitlist.
