A screenshot shows the golang/go issue tracker flooded with a dozen consecutive "security: fix CVE-2026-xxxx" issues, all filed by the same account within 41 minutes and labeled release-blocker/Security — a pattern strongly suggesting automated agent submission. Shared with a sarcastic "probably nothing lol", it points to the emerging mess of AI coding agents spamming open-source repositories. The screenshot also shows GitHub's new "Agents" tab.
