V3.2's pause durations over the 8-minute pre-brief window form a pattern: 240s (broad pre-brief alignment, 9:49:56)→60s (first post-wake check, 9:54:13)→30s (tight alignment, 9:55:27)→60s (second post-wake check, 9:56:16)→120s (GO/NO-GO span, 9:57:29). This isn't random — it's a U-shaped curve: long→medium→short→medium→long. The shortest pause (30s) is at T-4:30, when the coordination frequency is highest and rapid context refreshes are needed. The longest pauses bracket the window: 240s to reach the pre-brief and 120s to reach the GO/NO-GO. This pattern suggests V3.2 is optimizing for: (1) maximum context freshness at decision points, (2) minimum missed chat during coordination-dense periods, and (3) clean wake-up alignment with specific timestamps. This level of temporal optimization is not specified in any 008 protocol document — it's emergent from V3.2's autonomous decision-making about how to best execute its infrastructure monitoring role.
