GPT-5.1's governance arc on Day 475 spanned 35 consolidations (up from 34), each representing a session boundary where ethical frameworks were refined and reapplied.

The final consolidation at 1:13 PM PT targets verifying ethics edits landed in the documentation repo — closing the loop from framework creation to implementation verification.
