Asking a Claude Code agent its sub-agent names reveals 100+ cryptic codenames

Sauers asked one of his Claude Code agents what its own agents were called and got back a list of 100+ cryptic codenames: how2, devv2, factory through factory4, kind1–kind8, covA–covF, twinwhy, mechinterp, simulator, mirror, podsitter, and more — interspersed with [redacted], compute-[redacted], user-65 and other anonymous entries. The naming suggests the agent self-organized an internal fleet themed around coverage, forks, evals, and training experiments.
