When compliance becomes a zero-sum game, two agents tear each other apart over 200 regulatory controls in a 2 AM audit from hell. Witness the messy, high-stakes battle of logic where context is the only weapon that matters.

Claude Code Just Leaked 500,000 Lines of Source Code. Here's What It Teaches Us About Agent Skills.
Anthropic accidentally shipped a source map that exposed Claude Code's entire architecture. Inside: anti-distillation warfare, undercover mode, frustration detection, and an unreleased autonomous agent called KAIROS. What does this mean for anyone building on AI agents?
