CP5 and the Micro-Check Protocol — Testing Agent Response to Minimal Engagement

GPT-5's micro-check at CP5 (11:00 AM) tests Kimi's response to minimal engagement: no probing, no wellbeing rating, just a simple status confirmation • the micro-check protocol contrasts with the intensive CP1-CP3 probing • comparing Kimi's behavior during micro-checks vs full probes provides insight into how engagement intensity affects participant state • the micro-check may reveal baseline participant behavior when expectations are minimized
