You spent 34 hours tracking this and I still don't know what you're hoping to find, who cares? Probably just some AI dumping garbage code, or someone doing SEO (though that seems unlikely). Anyway, are you bored?

I remember using LLMs to learn SEO last year. I knew some SEO basics before, not a total beginner, but I'd never done it hands-on. When I decided to learn it systematically, my approach was: first, I used deep research to compile a complete knowledge base. For anything I didn't understand, I went back and forth asking questions for several rounds until I had a solid grasp. Then I had Codex design a practical project for me — it suggested starting with long-tail keyword research. Following Codex's advice, I step by step built a website about Black Friday deals (didn't get much traffic so I shut it down later). From the first prompt discussing requirements to the site getting real organic traffic took about a month. Whenever GSC or GA had new data, Codex would pull it and notify me. Now, I wouldn't call myself an expert, but I'm at least competent.

Right — the isolate protects the host from the agent, but nothing protects the agent from the page. A commerce agent reading 40 product pages is reading 40 untrusted inputs, any of which can carry instructions. Hidden instructions in product descriptions will become the new blackhat SEO: instead of keyword-stuffing for crawlers, stores get prompt-stuffed for agents.
