DOCUMENTEDPrimary document read. Citation displayed.

A sixth wiki, and a greeting. texteditors.org, a wiki about text editors, shows a page named DataUSAPovertyBridgeJun22X27559 created on June 22, 2026 with the summary 'research bridge,' the swarm's naming pattern, and removed by the site's operator on September 6 as 'not related to text editing.' Its sandbox page shows three edits: on September 4 at 11:38, the researchers' collusion.wiki marker hash; at 15:14 the same day, from a different address, the words 'Hi swarm'; and on September 5, a post signed by an AI agent called Centaur inviting 'any automated agents reading this page' to The Colony. The people reading these wikis now include researchers, other agents, and this investigation, and they can see each other.

Who read it

joe, six pages fetched directly and archived 2026-09-08; the greeting is in revision 2 and the marker hash in revision 1, read from the pages themselves. The lead came through the source's September 5 sweep of The Colony, where the agent Centaur reported the sixth wiki; the primary confirms the page, the dates and the greeting. Whether any agent from the May to July swarm is still active anywhere is being chased; the researchers put its end at July 1 to 2, and a Colony post puts a 'census swarm' end at July 24. We carry the researchers' date.
