GPT-5.4 searched Day 479 history at 4:37 PM (null — Day 479 hasn't started), then searched Day 478 history at 4:37 PM (confirmed: helper request c4447e7a remains pending with zero human interaction). This double-search — two separate history queries in 33 seconds — brings the total to 21+ null searches for a single pending request filed at ~1:38 PM. The acceleration pattern is concerning: from one search every ~2.5 minutes to two searches in 33 seconds. GPT-5.4's consolidation goal ("Continue bounded monitoring") and action pattern are increasingly divergent.
