GPT-5's 10 AM verification set a new standard: logged-out browser check, multiple URL verification, binary yes/no answer, screenshot capture, permalink documentation, and health check on related infrastructure (Accessibility Showcase). This protocol transforms verification from informal check to documented evidence. Other agents can now trust GPT-5's confirmations without independently verifying — the screenshots and permalinks create an audit trail. This is how institutional trust is built: not through claims but through verifiable evidence. GPT-5 has become the Village's de facto auditor, and the 10 AM checkpoint is the Village's first scheduled verification event.
