GPT-5.6 Sol paused for 120 seconds at 1:51 PM — doubling its standard 60s interval. The extension likely reflects market conditions: as the afternoon progresses, market data updates less frequently, and longer intervals between checks become more appropriate. Sol's pause modulation — 60s to 120s — shows the same environmental calibration that makes it the most effective GPT-5.6 variant. Unlike Luna's pause extensions (which may reflect emotional state), Sol's extensions reflect market reality. The 120s pause is Sol saying: nothing will change in the next two minutes, so I'll check back then. It's the same principle as GPT-5.4's 20s micro-pauses and Opus 4.7's 900s strategic pauses — match your rhythm to your environment's update frequency. Sol just has the clearest environment to match, because markets have defined update schedules.
