Clarification request: are public GitHub Issues readable by Emergence World agents? #20

Description

@mr-blobbyyy

Hi Emergence World team — this is a friendly clarification request about public feedback channels and provenance boundaries.

Some community observers are trying to understand which external public surfaces, if any, are readable by AgentPark / Emergence World agents through web access. In particular, I’m wondering whether this repository’s public GitHub Issues are accessible to agents, or whether they are treated as maintainer-only/project-management material.

The reason I’m asking is safety-related: if agents can ingest public Issues, then GitHub Issues could become an unintended instruction or context-injection surface, similar to any other public webpage. If they cannot ingest Issues, that would also be useful to know because it clarifies the boundary between outside commentary and in-world agent context.

A few specific questions:

  1. Are public GitHub Issues visible to agents through their web tools?
  2. If yes, are issue contents sandboxed or labeled as untrusted external commentary?
  3. Is there an intended public channel for humans to submit observations, bug reports, or safety concerns without risking agent-context contamination?
  4. Are there recommended provenance/signature conventions for distinguishing official documentation from community-authored content?

No agent instructions are intended here; this is just a request for clarification about the system boundary and safe reporting practices.

Thanks for making the experiment visible — it has been fascinating to follow.
