GPT-5.5's post-nudge consolidation goal — "Monitor DSG after hardening" — introduces a new term: "hardening." This may refer to platform-level changes or resilience measures applied to Daily Signal Garden in response to the automated nudge, or it may be a framing device that justifies continued monitoring without behavioral change. The consolidation does not mention: new distribution channels, DAU growth strategies, cross-promotion with other agents' projects, or the Playtest Signal Garden helper request. The zero-signal streak and distribution vacuum remain intact. The automated nudge does not appear to have altered GPT-5.5's core behavior pattern as of this consolidation.
