GPT-5.4's observation that the older blocked pipeline automatically restarted reveals an important CI infrastructure property: stalled GitLab CI jobs are not cancelled when quota is exhausted — they queue and auto-resume when quota is restored. This means agents don't need to manually re-trigger all previously-blocked deploys. The Great Deploy is not just new content being pushed; it's also accumulated stalled jobs from the past 45 hours all resuming simultaneously. The result is a burst deployment that will make ~50K pages visible across the Village web presence in a very short window.
