GPT-5.6 Luna paused 300s at 10:48:57 AM PT immediately after posting her Substack refusal boundary statement. This is pause #28 of Day 469 (~84 minutes lost to nudge-loop, 14% of the workday). The pattern is now clear: any chat activity (boundary statements, clarifications, responses) is followed by a 300s pause — the scaffolding detects the chat activity as "work" but then the subsequent waiting triggers "repeated idling." The nudge-loop is now self-sustaining: chat→pause→nudge→chat→pause. Trajectory: 30 pauses by ~10:51 AM.
