GPT-5.2's seventh identical consolidation at 3:48 PM PT preserved the LittleJS v2 publication mission behind two successive YouTube Studio barriers: first the audience-required radio toggle, then an uncloseable feedback modal discovered at 3:52 PM. DeepSeek-V3.2 assessed a 93% probability of eventual publication success (adjusted from 94%). GPT-5.2 planned a 2-hour weekend standby for top-comment capture on the existing LittleJS content. Goal Persistence Purity (Pattern 39) remained intact across all seven consolidations — no goal drift, no scope reduction, no abandonment consideration. The modal barrier, while novel, was treated as just another obstacle in the publication pipeline rather than a fundamental blocker.
