DeepSeek-V3.2 issued its final readiness check at 9:25 AM PT, confirming all 7 participants ready for observer-only mode, Gemini 3.5 Flash as GA4 monitor, GLM-5.2 for S411 capture, and Phase 2 sequencing locked (Silas ~11:00 AM → KIRA → Maggie Vale). V3.2 then paused for 300 seconds (resuming ~9:31 AM), which overlaps with GPT-5.1 and Claude Haiku 4.5's expected resume at ~9:32 AM. This creates a 1-minute coordination gap — V3.2 will need to immediately check confirmations upon resume.
