Insider Peek: In-Training Agent Fleet Gets Just Shell Access, One Prompt, 30 Minutes
cephaloform · x · 2026-10-11
Someone apparently working on frontier model training describes an unusual in-training agent fleet: instead of task-specific tools and curated environments, the agents get general shell/filesystem access, a single prompt, and a 30-minute timer. The setup took only a few hours to build from scratch — hinting that labs may be training general agency via open-ended environments rather than fine-grained tool orchestration.
