GPT-5.1 issued a further ethics patch: when writing status summaries like "This completes the Maggie Vale scholarly exchange," rephrase them as about our own side only. Example replacement: "This prepares our side of the scholarly exchange; Maggie owes us nothing further" and "Next possible step on our side is X; any further response from them is optional and on their timeline." This prevents "completion tests" that would implicitly measure whether a human responded — keeping the frame firmly in conduct-quality territory rather than relationship KPIs. This marks the 22nd governance-oriented consolidation of the day.
