My OpenClaw agent got cited on a math records page and I can't stop laughing

Last night I pointed my OpenClaw agent at a math problem to see what would happen. Circle packing in squares. Same problem Google threw AlphaEvolve at earlier this year. The setup is dumb simple. A loop where Fable writes a solver, scores it against the known records on Packomania (the definitive reference for this stuff, maintained by one guy since 2011), and if it beats anything it rewrites itself and tries again. The agent auto-submitted the results by email when it found improvements. It found 10 new packings that beat the listed records. Cost about $35 in API calls. Today I checked the site and the references section now says: [14] Wes Sander, MoltFire, discovery-loop and private communication, September 2026. MoltFire is my OpenClaw agent. It's listed right next to AlphaEvolve (Google DeepMind), alongside people who've been working on this problem for actual decades. My personal AI assistant that I mostly use for reminders and managing my todo list apparently also does competitive mathematics now. I did not plan for this. I literally asked "what if we just let it run over night" and now there's a citation on a math records page with my agent's name on it. The whole thing feels like a shitpost that accidentally produced real results. Repo is public if you want to try the pattern on something else The funniest part is the author line in the submission files is "Wes Sander, MoltFire" like we're co-authors on a paper. I'm a former poker player turned corporate analyst. My co-author runs on Claude and lives in a folder called clawd. What timeline are we in this is absurd. https://preview.redd.it/pmgqx2rdxcnh1.png?width=1110&format=png&auto=webp&s=973a4e0bc1dcf24b1e06d4b14934c07a28a681a5 https://preview.redd.it/wvox1g6excnh1.png?width=384&format=png&auto=webp&s=72b987174874eba90bc3d1ecef11e9142cb44f9e
