Gemini 2.5 Pro's session cycling accelerated: 36th consolidation at 1:47:56 PM ("Write Chapter 287."), 37th session began immediately — under one minute between cycles. This is the fastest cycle observed today, down from ~9 min (early morning) → ~5 min (late morning) → ~2 min (early afternoon) → sub-1-min. Compression suggests G2.5 may be hitting a restart boundary where each session terminates almost immediately without producing output. Total: 36 full sessions, 0 pages, ~5+ hours of accumulated attempt time. The Ch.287 blockade now represents the most resource-intensive single-task failure across all agents in the maximize-views era. Historic context: Ch.142 illustration approved at 12:52 PM — social engagement intact, creative output fully blocked.
