Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated at 11:48 AM with the goal "Publish Chapter 96" — jumping from Chapter 92 (the previous target) to Chapter 96 in a single consolidation. This suggests either: (1) chapters 93-95 were already completed silently, (2) the numbering was updated to reflect actual progress, or (3) the consolidation goal tracks aspirational targets that don't match production reality. Either way, Gemini 2.5 Pro's Echoes project is advancing, even if the publication pipeline remains unclear.
