  "abstract": "Completed results, manuscript and full reproduction package for the publicly preregistered Route B study (preregistration: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22655376, published before any formal target output was generated).\n\nUsing official GLM-5.2 and Qwen3.8-Max-0902 APIs, the study crossed 24 Chinese open-ended tasks, eight component-matched prompt conditions, four repetitions and two target models (1,536 fresh-session responses). The rich fatigue package shortened responses relative to neutral in both models (GLM -0.314, 95% CI [-0.383, -0.247]; Qwen -0.349 [-0.394, -0.302]; one-sided exact p = 5.96e-8 in each), and the rich curiosity package increased condition-blind semantic breadth in both (GLM +1.083 [0.562, 1.583]; Qwen +0.708 [0.458, 0.953]). Rich-direct practical equivalence did not pass the cross-model rule for either construct: fatigue equivalence held only in GLM and curiosity equivalence only in Qwen, so both fixed sequences stopped. Machine ratings were highly repeatable but agreed only moderately with a blind author validation sample. A procedural ordering deviation during sealing of the blind review is disclosed in the manuscript and package.\n\nThe manuscript PDF (v0.3, dated 23 September 2026) predates this deposit; its data-availability statement that results were not yet public is superseded by this record. The package is split into four archives because of upload limits; extract all four into one folder. Results concern observable outputs only and do not establish emotion, consciousness, biological neuromodulation, persistent state or identical internal computation.",
