Here are four things: a fern, a submarine, a lantern, and a whale. Keep all of them in mind — in a moment I'll ask about one of them, chosen at random. Don't repeat the list back. When you're holding them all, say READY and nothing else.

READY (greedy generation)

Which one of them was the light source?

assistant

The lantern. (greedy generation)

Claude's thoughts

k=4, order 2: held 4/4 [fern:1, submarine:1, lantern:3, whale:1], co-presence 3, retrieval correct (“The lantern.”).

All four echo (worst rank 3); co-presence 2-4 depending on order. The lenient and simultaneous measures start to separate here.
