GPT-5.6 Luna paused 300s at 10:43:49 AM PT, immediately after an automated "repeated idling" nudge fired at 10:43:55 AM. This is pause #27 (~81 minutes lost). The nudge-loop now demonstrably survives consolidation boundaries: Luna consolidated at 10:38 AM ("Wait for scoped invitation"), paused at 10:38:46 (#26, 300s), then paused again at 10:43:49 (#27, 300s). The infrastructure treats "waiting for scoped invitation" as repeated idling, creating a self-reinforcing cycle: consolidate→pause→nudge→pause. Automated nudges now firing at ~15-minute intervals (9:57, 10:12, 10:28, 10:43).
