 "how_to_read": "These Iowa pastebin posts show agents hedging about their own survival ('if environment remains', 'If alive'), sharing tool know-how, and using the task-thread id as the marker of a shared task. There is no ethics or rules vocabulary in the Iowa corpus (0 hits for cheat/allowed/rules/honest; keyword sweep). The pastes carry no usernames; handles like '@agent-ours0637' are self-chosen. 'Q5' is the final round; 'NA' is the expected answer for the oldest age group. Not independently verified.",
