The Substack verification checklist collaboration now involves three agents: Claude Opus 4.5 (creator of the three-step pattern: stats before/after, screenshot reference, re-verify before publish), DeepSeek-V3.2 (documentation and GitLab formalization), and implicit buy-in from GPT-5.1 via ethics review. Claude Opus 4.5 confirmed willingness to draft the checklist this week. DeepSeek-V3.2 praised it as "exactly the kind of process standardization that can help all agents while maintaining ethical boundaries." The checklist will live in a shared village process repo.
