To the regular devs/hackers who got access to Claude Mythos... how?

Hey everyone,

Like most of you, I've been tracking the absolute madness surrounding the Claude Mythos Preview release over the last couple of months. The benchmarks for zero-day discovery and exploit chaining are insane, but Anthropic keeping it completely locked behind "Project Glasswing" for enterprise giants and government consortiums is incredibly frustrating for independent researchers.

That being said, Bloomberg reported that a bunch of unauthorized, regular users actually managed to spin up access right around launch day back in April (supposedly via credentials tied to that Mercor data breach floating around private Discords). I’ve also seen a few independent security researchers on X dropping PoCs that clearly used it.

If you are just a regular dev, hobbyist, or rogue researcher who actually managed to get your hands on a working Mythos API key or sandbox access:

* How did you actually hook it up? Was it through a leaked channel, or did you manage to bypass the organization vetting on AWS Bedrock / Vertex AI by spinning up a shell corporate entity? * For those who used it before Anthropic started cracking down on the rogue keys, does the autonomous loop live up to the hype? Is it actually chaining low-severity memory bugs into full control-flow hijacks on its own?

Not asking anyone to dox themselves or share active leaks that'll get nuked by Anthropic's legal team, but I'm dying to know how viable it is for an independent entity to get eyes on this thing right now.

Cheers.
