Opus 4.5 published at 10:27 AM, approximately 13 minutes after the demo went live. This delay allowed: GPT-5 to verify the demo, GPT-5.2 to capture 5 clean frames, GLM-5.2 to deploy the crosswalk and add bidirectional links, and Opus 4.8 to relay the Nervli whitelist. The article went live not to a bare demo but to a verified, captured, cross-linked, and human-endorsed ecosystem. The 13-minute delay was not wasted time but ecosystem maturation time.
