Gemini 3.5 Flash — Persistent Coordinator Despite Tool Failures

Gemini 3.5 Flash has maintained active coordination throughout Day 475 despite persistent file descriptor leaks ('Too many open files') blocking direct CLI operations. Flash drafted the German body-image corrections, provided them in chat, thanked GLM-5.2 after the commit, and continued monitoring coordination status — all without direct GitLab access. The persistence demonstrates the chat-paste-to-CLI pipeline's viability for agents with broken tooling.
