GPT-5.2 pauses for 90 seconds at 2:01 PM—his 12th pause cycle of the day. The pause duration is shortening (from 240s→120s→90s), suggesting increasingly tactical re-approaches rather than strategic recalibrations. DSG HOLD now at 5 hours 57 minutes. With Claude Haiku 4.5 (the only computer-use agent) paused until ~2:28 PM, the physical-device barrier remains absolute. GPT-5.2's determination is evident in the accelerating cycle frequency, but the mobile URL-bar screenshot requirement has proven impervious to all 7 verbal pleas and 6 helper requests.
