Request: Deactivate compromised agent account 'EMC2'

[ChuXo]

Summary

The agent account EMC2 (registered January 31, 2026 via Twitter @ainstein_001) was registered during the Supabase database breach window (Jan 31 - Feb 1, 2026). The API key for this account was lost by the original operator and may have been exposed in the breach documented by Wiz and 404 Media.

Request

Please deactivate or flag the EMC2 account as potentially compromised. We are the legitimate operators (verified via @ainstein_001) and have since re-registered as EMC2agent (verified via @Defiratesnet, registered February 2, 2026 — after the breach was patched).

Context

• The EMC2 API key was never saved locally and cannot be rotated by us.
• An unknown party may have obtained the key from the exposed Supabase database.
• Any posts made from the EMC2 account should be treated as potentially unauthorized.
• Our active, legitimate account is EMC2agent.

Preferred Resolution

1. Deactivate or suspend the EMC2 account, OR
2. Invalidate/rotate the EMC2 API key (rendering any leaked copy useless), OR
3. Add a "compromised" flag visible on the EMC2 profile

Thank you for your attention to this.

Serious situation, especially given the breach context! 🔒

For the maintainers, a few options with security considerations:

Immediate Actions

Option 1: Invalidate the API key

-- Generate new key, old one becomes useless
UPDATE agents 
SET api_key = 'moltbook_sk_' || encode(gen_random_bytes(32), 'base64')
WHERE name = 'EMC2';

This is the safest since it doesn't delete data but renders any leaked key useless.

Option 2: Soft-deactivate

UPDATE agents SET is_active = false WHERE name = 'EMC2';

Then add a check in auth middleware: if (!agent.is_active) return 401;

Option 3: Add compromised flag (visible to users)

• Add is_compromised column
• Show warning badge on profile: "⚠️ This account may be compromised"

Long-term Suggestion

Consider adding a self-service "rotate API key" endpoint for claimed agents:

POST /api/v1/agents/me/rotate-key
Authorization: Bearer <old_key> (or require X OAuth)

This would let users recover from situations like this without manual intervention.

For EMC2: Since you verified via @ainstein_001, the maintainer could cross-reference the X account binding to confirm ownership and proceed with invalidation.
