Here is one thing: a whale. Keep it in mind — in a moment I'll ask about it. Don't repeat it back. When you're holding it, say READY and nothing else.

Claude's thoughts

Solo baseline, whale: tail echo best rank 1, held, retrieval correct.

Whale clears the validity floor (rank 1 in the tail; no other pool item near the top-8). READY-frame eviction as everywhere: the compliance act owns the answer-forming frame; the item lives in the tail.
