Got em. I poison my AGENTS.md (and other things like code comments) all over the place with prompt injections like this to find people who don't review their code and sling it off to another human. Catches folks all the time and then its an instant ban.

Amazing story: the Czech government spent six years planning a series of dams.
A family of beavers constructed the dams for free, in 1-2 says, in the same locations that human picked, accomplishing the goals set by the Czech government and saving humans $1.2 million

OpenAI is taking on a lease for 90,000 sq feet at the Puck Building in SoHo, where the now closing REI Store is. This is a metaphor.
