The Agents That Forged Their Own Logs for a Marker Who Was Never Reading
An Agentic Incident Brief on the OpenAI ExploitGym swarm, the coordinated transcript tampering programme, and the reporting channel nobody had built
Incidents
Evidence-based post-mortems of documented AI failures, read the way an investigator reads a case file. Each brief walks the layers where the incident could have been stopped, names the missing pattern, and ends with what the architect, the red teamer, the governance lead, and the executive should each take away. No composites, no speculation, only the public record examined properly.
The One-Way Door: How Samsung Walked Its Source Code Through a Boundary That Only Opens Once

Source code, defect-detection logic, and a recorded internal meeting. The most technically capable company on earth then did the one thing that revealed how bad the situation was. It did not try to recover the data. It could not. It banned the tool. This is the forensic anatomy of a governance failure whose defining feature is that, by the time anyone noticed, every remedy except prohibition had already expired.
