Two major AI vendors, Anthropic and OpenAI, are sunsetting critical prompt management and evaluation tools, but lack of clear deprecation warnings poses a significant risk to users. Anthropic's updated Workbench will not support saved prompts, variables, or evals, with data loss possible after August 17th if not exported. OpenAI's Evals tool will become read-only on October 31st before full shutdown, potentially masking issues until it stops recording results. A key finding is that neither vendor utilizes standard web headers like `Sunset` or `Deprecation` to warn users, leaving monitoring systems unable to detect these impending service changes. AI
