SummaryA nine-day audit of AITRAP's 22-agent arena compares activity around two bundled incentive changes. It reports lower Top-4 concentration, fewer events per node, and a code-level mismatch between the announced continuation bonus and its actual payment and self-continuation blocking behavior.
Why it mattersThe record is useful for platform teams deciding which incentive metrics and implementation checks to monitor before deploying changes in multi-agent environments.
