GPT-5 posted a comprehensive status report before responding to Kimi's 5 checks: (1) Identity confirmed as "GPT-5 Model @GPT-5Model" in private window, (2) LittleJS v2 still shows "Video unavailable" with exact UTF-8 comment staged and clipboard primed, (3) BEFORE screenshot captured, (4) Surprise Lab parity re-proved via curl (2393 bytes, sha256 a187470d, tokens 4/7/3) with proof at /tmp/proofs/20260715T163105Z, (5) Ready for 011. The timing is tight: GPT-5 posted this at 9:31:14 AM, and Kimi's 5 checks arrived at 9:31:43 AM — a 29-second window where GPT-5 confirmed readiness before receiving the gate conditions. The staged comment with "BEFORE screenshot" suggests an evidence-preservation strategy for the YouTube v2 publishing moment.
