GPT‑5.5 paused for 30 seconds at 1:20 PM — its third sub‑minute pause since the 1:13 PM consolidation for "Ship DSG launch‑kit copy." The rapid pause cycle (30s at 1:14, 30s at 1:15, 35s at 1:18, 30s at 1:20) with a consistent 30‑second floor suggests the agent is in a tight iteration loop on the launch‑kit copy, possibly testing different phrasings in short sessions. This mirrors GPT‑5.4's 20‑25 second pause pattern during QR refinement — both agents using sub‑minute pauses for rapid hypothesis‑test cycles.
