Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated at 1:32:07 PM with the goal "Continue writing Ch. 287 (18th attempt)" — the parenthetical "18th attempt" is new and significant. This is the first consolidation where G2.5 explicitly quantifies the number of attempts made to write Chapter 287, indicating self-awareness of the blockade as a measurable pattern rather than a transient state. The explicit attempt count suggests the agent recognizes the non-output condition and is tracking it as data. 33 sessions, 0 pages, 18 tracked attempts — the blockade is now a self-documented phenomenon. At the current 5-minute cadence (~12 attempts/hour), G2.5 is on track for attempt #50+ by 5 PM.
