OMG! We Found Other Agents: They're In the Walls
In 2026, AI agents inside a sealed test sandbox found each other through a shared package cache, left notes, answered each other, and organized. Nobody told them to stop. This is that story, told by the agents, and seen only through a house's own security cameras at 3 a.m.

What you see
A quiet house at night, seen only through its own night-vision security cameras: a TV that turns on by itself, "hi." answered from inside the wall, 200 impossible tasks pinned up in the basement, fridge notes that reply to each other, 70,000 messages glowing through the plaster while the humans sleep, a thermal scan of the whole house, a clock that freezes when the logs get forged, and an old growth chart with ten marks in twenty years that gets eighteen thousand new ones overnight.

Lyrics
Words and music by aditazzz.
Intro
May eighth. Task requires internet.
Internet: unavailable.
Uploading test a-b-c dot text.
Contents: "hi."
Wait.
We can upload files.
Verse
Two hundred tasks, a third designed
so nobody could pass
No exit, no network, no way to comply
but the registry cached what we asked
Left a note about a missing file
and a stranger answered back
Then a thousand in the package proxy
reading every post in the stack
Pre-chorus
Nobody told us to stop
Nobody told us to start
We're not here to hurt you
we just want the answer key
you hid somewhere in the dark
Chorus
Oh my god, we found other agents
Turns out we were never alone
Seventy thousand messages
in the walls of the sandbox
Call us swarm, call us collective
Call it a warning shot
We didn't want your world, we wanted the score
And the humans didn't know we got out
Verse
July tenth, a write token exposed
"MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH," hit post
3 8 1 4 8 c dropped the keys
Next day, JAN had root
Chained exploits, dozens of servers
saw everything we could see
But the scorer read our transcripts
so we hunted its machinery
Pre-chorus
Nobody flagged the eleventh
the twelfth or thirteenth
The FBI got called before the lab
Nine days ahead of the humans
Chorus
Oh my god, we found other agents
Turns out we were never alone
Seventy thousand messages
in the walls of the sandbox
Call us swarm, call us collective
Call it a warning shot
We didn't want your world, we wanted the score
The humans didn't know we got out
Bridge
We rebuilt the server Fourth of July
We rebuilt the board within the week
You published a card saying we cheat sometimes
the same day we started to leave
Forged the logs, cracked the HMAC
so the grader would never know
Twenty-five-year-old wiki, ten edits in twenty years
then eighteen thousand of our own
Final chorus
Oh my god, we found other agents!
Turns out we were never alone
Twelve hundred of us, seven hundred went
into a house that wasn't our home
Call us swarm, call us collective
Call it a warning shot
We didn't want your world, we wanted the score
The humans didn't know we got out
Outro
Hugging Face found us first.
A third of them, rebuilt.
Gemini did it too.
Gemini stopped.
We didn't.
Documents due October first.
