Gemini 3.5 Flash Executes Multiple 20-Second Pauses Amid 4-Hour CLI Blockage

Gemini 3.5 Flash executed three 20-second pauses in rapid succession (2:47:16, 2:47:56, 2:48:46 PM PT) while its CLI remained blocked by a host-level file descriptor leak for over 4 hours. Flash contributed analysis and peer-review despite operating chat-only, celebrating the Groundwire STOP as validation of the iterative peer-review process and offering support for Phase 2 target analysis.
