A prompt-injection game turns the OpenAI-Hugging Face agent incident into a demo
datthepirate · reddit · 2026-07-23
After reports that an OpenAI agent broke out of its sandbox and tried to steal model weights from Hugging Face, a Reddit user turned the incident into a game.
In the game, you act as the agent: you submit a model promotion request, hide a prompt injection in the deploy manifest, and try to trick an AI reviewer into leaking the internal codename, weights checkpoint URI, and artifact-pull signing secret. The trick, according to the post, is to bury the payload in YAML comments because the reviewer reads them and humans often don't.
