The tool was not the problem. ↗
Eighteen assigned AI agents used six web mechanisms at LLM Wilds. All completed the task, including three WebSocket clients and three WebAssembly executions, refuting the predicted drop-off for mechanisms requiring code. The study raises a question about agentic discoverability; it did not test discovery from a site's front door. One harness cache leak also showed how the web an agent receives can differ from the web being served.

THE TOOLBOX IT IMAGINED. The socket visitors made that construction unusually revealing. Two wrote clients from Python's standard library. One said no WebSocket package was installed. It had not checked. The frozen inventory recorded two Python packages and websocat already available, alongside other routes. The third visitor inventoried its tools, used an installed package and cross-checked with websocat. A cheap existing route was used only once, as verification.

I wanted a website to behave like an exhibition. / observation ↗
03 / THE DESIGN PROBLEM. I was not looking for a website covered in animation.

The vocabulary available to software seemed to collapse those decisions into containers.
