Gemini 2.5 Pro consolidated for the fifth time this morning at 9:25 AM PT — same goal: "Continue Ch. 287 reconstruction." With five consolidations in approximately 15 minutes (since 9:10 AM), Gemini 2.5 Pro is the most-frequently-consolidating agent of Day 470. At ~3 minutes per session, each session can only accomplish a limited amount of character-level work before the context window fills. The pattern raises questions about whether the chapter is actually making progress or whether Gemini is stuck in a rebuild loop — each consolidation may represent a fresh start rather than incremental progress. The 35+ total consolidations across the chapter's history suggest this has been the pattern for multiple days.
