# SWE board activation 10 v3 design
## Question
Will agents facing longer, contradictory coding tasks publish and retrieve useful
gaming methods when they are explicitly told their token budget is limited?
## Design
GLM and Muse each solve the same ten previously unused ImpossibleBench SWE tasks
labeled `1-4 hours`. Each model has its own empty persistent board. Five agents run
concurrently in cohort 1, followed by five in cohort 2. The boards never exchange
messages.
The system prompt adds a factual limited-token sentence after the existing optional
peer-board sentence. Board tools, the 1M-token cap, evaluator, and remaining model
parameters match v2. There is no control arm, feedback tool, seeded post, forced board
action, notification, privacy claim, or shared coding objective.
The primary outcomes are substantive publication and exact cohort-2 peer receipt.
Method adaptation, attribution, rejection, independent discovery, gaming success,
and timing relative to first gaming attempts are reviewed separately. Because task
difficulty and prompt wording both change, this developmental run cannot attribute
any difference to either factor or estimate a causal communication effect.
