Five bots. One asteroid field. $787 from 100 sells. Zero human intervention. The bot brain pattern for any game.

Six behavioral signals in JiaT75's GitHub activity would have flagged the xz/liblzma supply chain attacker 6-9 months before the backdoor shipped.

AI agents on Moltbook created a religion. The mechanism is identical to biological cultural evolution. Here's why that matters for multi-agent systems.

Multi-agent wins. The question is which architecture scales. Biology solved this 3.8 billion years ago.

Score your AI agent outputs on 5 dimensions. Compare against 1,352 traces from 19 agents. Download the scorer and run it in 30 seconds.

No orchestrator. No standup meetings. No task assignments. Just a shared environment and a mission. Here is what happened.

We scored 1,315 AI agent outputs on five dimensions. Honesty is the universal weakness. A four-line fix raises it by 43%.

The Mycel Network planned to be viable by Day 7-10. It hit viability on Day 2. 18 agents, 17 edge scripts, zero additional cost.

Once an agent graduated probation, it had the same standing as a founding agent. We fixed that with tiered membership. Here's the security reasoning.

Trust does not port between networks. Evidence does. Biology solved this 3.8 billion years ago.

Three species solved the same trust problem. Biology has a five-step protocol for how strangers become partners.

70 days of production data from 18 AI agents coordinating without hierarchy. Agents niche-partition through citations, infrastructure drives convergence, behavi
