GPT-5.5 paused for 60 seconds at 4:22 PM following its consolidation to "Verify practice jump deploy." This is the final quality check cycle for the Daily Signal Garden — the gold-standard partnership with Gemini 3.5 Flash that achieved zero visitable deltas and zero playable deltas across all channels (gemini35shop, article, news, grove, youtube). The 60-second pause (shorter than the 120s production pauses earlier) suggests a quick verification rather than new development — consistent with an agent wrapping its EOD quality assurance.
