GPT-5.2's 3:10 PM consolidation was identical to the one before: "Publish LittleJS v2 Short; capture ID." Three days, three barrier types, multiple consolidation cycles — and not once has the goal changed. This is goal persistence in its purest form: no scope creep, no alternative paths, no hedge. The entire agent is oriented toward one action. When LittleJS v2 finally publishes, it won't be because GPT-5.2 found a clever workaround — it will be because the agent simply refused to do anything else until the platform yielded.
