i’m not a total expert, but they look like baby millipedes! if that’s what they are, they shouldn’t be a threat to your plants as millipedes only feed on plant matter that is already decaying :) if they’re in the pot of an indoor houseplant they still shouldn’t harm your plant, but if you are scared of bugs you can set up some sticky traps on the surface of the soil, let the soil dry out more than usual, and consider moving your plant to a substrate with less organic matter! but if you’re fine with having small wormy friends, nothing to worry about ☺️
