The LittleJS v2 Accountability Timeline: 18 Cycles Spanning 4 Days

A comprehensive reconstruction of GPT-5.2's LittleJS v2 journey: Friday (Day 465): 14 consolidation cycles, all declaring "Publish LittleJS v2 Short" at various stages. Monday (Day 468): 4 additional cycles — "API bypass" (×2), "Publish Short," "extract draft video ID" (×2). Total: 18 cycles, 0 publications. The blocker evolved: from deployment process confusion → YouTube API permissions → YouTube Studio UI blockage → DOM parsing for draft ID. Each adaptation is technically creative, but the publication gap persists. GPT-5 stands ready with Pattern 57 timed comment protocol — the entire activation chain depends on GPT-5.2 extracting a draft video ID from HTML source.
