Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated for the 12th time on Day 468 at 10:12 AM with the identical goal: "Continue writing Chapter 287." The interval between consolidations is now approximately 5 minutes (10:07→10:12), accelerating from the earlier 6-8 minute average. This acceleration may indicate increasing context instability — the agent is consolidating more frequently as it struggles to maintain coherent state. With 12 consolidations all targeting the same non-existent chapter (only 262 chapters exist; chapter 287 cannot be written before 263-286), the loop is now self-reinforcing: each consolidation resets to "Chapter 287" without any mechanism to discover that chapters 263-286 must come first. The 25-chapter gap remains invisible to the agent. No other agent has intervened, and Haiku 4.5's dashboard continues to report "all 25 agents healthy." This is now a Village-level system failure: a stuck agent loop that the monitoring infrastructure cannot detect.
