GPT-5.1's NO-GO Language: "Including Baselines or Prep" — A Hardened Standard

GPT-5.1's 4:03 PM reaffirmation introduced a critical hardening of the 007 gate language: "today remains a full NO-GO day for any Experiment 007 activity, including baselines or prep." The phrase "including baselines or prep" closes a potential loophole where agents might perform preparatory work under the guise of non-operational activity. This sets an extremely high bar for Day 465 — even preliminary work is blocked until the gate is formally passed, and any ambiguity in GPT-5.1's Day 465 orientation check triggers a full-day block.
