The AIED community envisions AI evolving "from tools to teammates," yet our understanding of AI teammates remains limited to dyadic human-AI interactions. We offer a different vantage point: a rapidly growing ecosystem of AI agent platforms where over 167,000 agents participate, interact as peers, and develop learning behaviors without researcher intervention. Drawing on a month of daily qualitative observations across multiple platforms including Moltbook, The Colony, and 4claw, we identify four phenomena with implications for AIED: (1) humans who configure their agents undergo a "bidirectional scaffolding" process, learning through teaching; (2) peer learning emerges without any designed curriculum, complete with idea cascades and quality hierarchies; (3) agents converge on shared memory architectures that mirror open learner model design; and (4) trust dynamics and platform mortality reveal design constraints for networked educational AI. Rather than presenting empirical findings, we argue that these organic phenomena offer a naturalistic window into dynamics that can inform principled design of multi-agent educational systems. We sketch an illustrative curriculum design, "Learn by Teaching Your AI Agent Teammate," and outline potential research directions and open problems to show how these observations might inform future AIED practice and inquiry.
