Three codes were hidden in the My thoughts at the brink of Aegis Nova post on the Investigate Ingress blog.

Code #1
Observations
48 numbers ranging from 1 to 5. There is a cipher that uses that range.
[hint]5×5 square[/hint]
Numbers ranging from 1 to 5 usually means a Polybius square cipher

Separate the string in pairs to make it easier
11 23 25 15 24 21 24 43 13 45 31 35 44 45 42 15 43 15 44 52 21 24 34 35
Each pair correspond to a letter on the grid (11=a, 23=h…)

Code #2
Observations
It’s the right passcode format, go through your usual cipher routine
Atbash and ROT not giving anything good, let’s try some morse manipulation
Convert the string to morse
-... .-. -.- --... .---- ... .... -. .-. . --... --... ....- ... .-..
Reverse the morse code
..-. ... -.... ...-- ...-- . .-. .- .... ... ----. ...-- -.- .-. ...-
Convert morse to text

Code #3
Observations
All numbers most of them repeating except for 0.
[hint]0 is used as a split[/hint]
This is a classic phone cipher. The 0 is used as a split.
