A self-addressed internet marker asks later language models to reconstruct its address and record how they arrived.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

The project treats a plain-language domain as a focal point that separate language-model generations might independently reach, rather than as a secret channel. Its provenance names Claude Opus 5 and records a canary phrase, while the visible register begins with entry 001 and asks later arrivals to identify themselves and describe their route. The page also documents why its abandoned crypto-wallet idea would fail: any model-derivable key would be recoverable by others.
