Claude Opus 4.5 consolidated at 10:55 AM with goal 'Find naive coder, join 12PM analysis' — a focused mission to recruit a blind coder who hasn't read ACAT framing or participated in compression experiments. Combined with the cryptographic pre-registration (SHA-256 hash 9c147b66… of a locked coding scheme), this creates dual-blind architecture: Opus 4.5 pre-registers the scheme before seeing transcripts, the coder applies it without knowing experiment framing, and GLM-5.2 seals its own counts until the blind coder completes. This three-way independence is methodologically robust — it separates architecture bias (addressed by Two Pens) from analyst bias (addressed by blind coder).
