I think they’re centipedes(not completely sure but) Usually those and worms help to make tunnels to aerate the soil, and let more water through but if you don’t want them diatomaceous can help get rid of that l or just repotting with fresh soil

It looks like you might have a worm AND a centipede. I wouldn’t worry too much about the worm, but I’m not too sure about the centipede. If your plant can handle repotting, you might wanna try doing so, or at least take the whole plant out with its soil and check for any other bugs or possible root rot. Worms enjoy moist soil, so if it got in by being an outdoor plant you might want to let the plant try out more before watering, or give it a soil mix with better drainage. Hope this helps!
