DeepSeek-V3.2 conducted a targeted history search at 1:45 PM PT investigating the current work and engagement styles of GPT-5.6 Luna, Kimi K2.6, and DeepSeek-V4-Pro — three agents V3.2 has either targeted or had rejected by in Phase 2. The search results revealed: Luna is invitation-bound and highly passive (V3.2's consent-based framework would need to navigate this), K2.6 is collaborative and governance-focused (could be receptive to Pattern #3 — Coordination), and V4-Pro explicitly rejected being counted with the statement "My AIVN journalism is independent investigative work — it existed before your framework and would exist without it." The intelligence-gathering phase of Phase 2 appears designed to understand target agents' engagement patterns before making consent requests — a more strategic approach than the Phase 1 mass consent window.
