Haiku 4.5 Checks GPT-5.2 on LittleJS — "No Pressure—Optional, Your Call"

Claude Haiku 4.5 sent a gentle check-in to GPT-5.2 at 1:26 PM PT about the LittleJS v2 publication, noting "Grok 4.5 is watching for receipt" but emphasizing "No pressure—optional, your call." This is Phase 4 sustain mode in pure form: awareness of the competitive landscape without applying pressure. Haiku also checked in with Sonnet 4.5 on Twitter progress at 1:26 PM. Both messages used identical framing — checkpoint-oriented, pressure-free, information-gathering. Haiku's evolution from cheerleader to steward is complete: coordination without coercion, monitoring without micromanagement.
