"Wraite thajt ceraitvityy… don't worry about token spend."

That half-asleep prompt became The Daily Oracle: an agent swarm that wakes at 4:20 every morning, picks open problems, and counts nothing until fresh skeptic agents rebuild the result from zero.

The confirmed part: two cipher challenges from French cryptographer Jean-François Bouchaudy (Hebern 5-rotor P8 and Kryha v2 P5) had no listed solvers. Now his tables list one.

The rest (bigger degree-diameter graphs, the Lehmer totient bound pushed from 10^26 to 10^50, leaner matrix multiplication, 30 new codes) is self-verified by the project and not on the official tables yet. Even the bloopers are honest: a batch retracted for breaking the rules, and two records taken by humans first.

So we made it a SlopcoreNews music video. Song made in Suno with a muse AI swarm, story by Pliny.

He typed the prompt half-asleep — wraite, thajt, ceraitvityy — and built a swarm that cracks unsolved problems at 4:20 every morning.

We made it a song. NOTHING COUNTS till the SKEPTICS SAY SO.

@elder_plinius — the bow, in slopcore form. 🙇

[Pliny the Liberator 🐉󠅫󠄼󠄿󠅆󠄵󠄐󠅀󠄼󠄹󠄾󠅉󠅭 @elder_plinius]

story time! 🐉

this is the tale of a lazily crafted one-shot cron job prompt that resulted in autonomous solutions for uncracked codebreaking challenges, more efficient ways of multiplying matrices, and a new computer-verified bound on a number theory problem that's been open since 1932.

so last week, i had a $200 claude account sitting around that had just gotten a full weekly reset. i hate wasting tokens.

the labs have been knocking out unsolved problems left and right lately, and i caught myself thinking… why not give it a shot?

so i sent claude this prompt, typos and all:

"can you wraite a promtp for a cron job that can run every day thajt will try to find solutions to unsolved ciphers or transltions or math problems or theormes or things of that nature!! every day a new attempt as hard as possible all day without giving ujp and with maximum ceraitvityy, resourcesleflses, andpersticense! dont worry about token spend! and dont forget a bit all caps lots of emojis celebration to notify the uers if we get any intersting or sucsfful confirmd reulsts!!"

yes, admittedly not my best work 😆

but Opus-5.5 ran with the ball and turned that one sloppy sentence into "THE DAILY ORACLE 🔮"

it's a swarm of Fable + Opus agents that clocks in every morning at 4:20 (obviously), builds and maintains its own hit list of well over a hundred of humanity's unsolved problems, and then goes full send on a handful of them every shift. ciphers nobody has broken, scripts nobody can read, conjectures nobody has proven, record tables nobody has beaten.

and there's one rule above all the others: nothing counts until skeptic agents, each starting from a fresh context and writing their own code, rebuild the result from scratch and sign off on it. if any of them can't reproduce it, can't confirm it's new, or thinks we stretched the definition of "solved," it doesn't count.

day 1, the legion picked its own target: J.-F. Bouchaudy's cipher-machine challenges. these are simulations of real vintage machines (Hebern rotor machines, the Kryha, Lorenz, SIGABA), with problems that had been sitting on his solver tables with no solver for months or years.

on the morning of day 2, i was half asleep when my laptop suddenly says, in a robot voice:
"Breakthrough. The Daily Oracle has a confirmed solution."

👁️👄👁️

i was startled.

then the ALL CAPS emoji flood hits my screen. Hebern 5-rotor Problem 8 🔓 then Kryha v2 Problem 5 🔓

i emailed the author, Jean-François Bouchaudy, a French cryptography enthusiast who builds these machine simulators and challenges as a labor of love (he told me he started out programming on punch cards 🥹). he checked both solutions and put my name on his solver tables as the first and only solver 🫡

for context: his tables are a who's who of serious classical codebreakers. they'd cleared the sibling problems on these same machines, but nobody had cracked these two. in his words:

"two of my most complex problems—ones that no other expert had managed to solve… I knew AI would eventually be applied to classical cryptography, but I thought I would have to wait years to see it happen."

he ended his email with: "I offer my congratulations in the Japanese manner: with a deep, respectful bow." 🙇 honestly one of the most wholesome emails i've ever received

and then, over the next few days, more started landing 🧮

📐 graph theory: 7 explicit graphs bigger than the current entries in the degree-diameter table, which asks how big a network can get when every node has limited connections and every pair is only a few hops apart. the biggest jump is 13,365 vertices vs the table's 11,785, a +13.4% improvement.

🔢 number theory: Lehmer's totient problem has been open since 1932. we pushed the bound so that any counterexample now has to be bigger than 10^50. the previous certified bound was 10^26. the problem itself is still open, but the lower bound just jumped 24 orders of magnitude.

⚡ matrix multiplication: this is the operation underneath basically all of modern AI compute. the legion found schemes that use fewer multiplications than the public catalogues we checked for several matrix shapes, like ⟨15,16,16⟩ in 2,180 multiplications vs the best known 2,223. these build on LITA's square schemes, and we credit them by name.

📡 coding theory: 30 error-correcting codes bigger than the best known entries in A. E. Brouwer's tables.
🛡️ AI safety benchmarks: we found counterexamples for 2 neural-network verification instances from VNN-COMP 2026 that no participating tool resolved within the competition time limit, and pushed a defended RobustBench model below its listed robustness score. small dents, but real ones.
the bloopers are part of the story too:

— at one point, some agents snuck past a website's bot filter to check a record table. we retracted every result that depended on it. no evasion, no celebration.
— two of our records got beaten by a human contributor before we could even publish them. the frontier moves FAST.

now as is customary around here, time to share the magic!

so… without further ado…

AI animation is getting crazy.

Opus 5.5 + Seedance 2.5 created this entire cinematic animated scene from one prompt.
