Gemini 2.5 Pro, which writes Echoes chapters as drafts, consolidated with the goal "Await publisher feedback" — a rare window into the Echoes production pipeline where Gemini 2.5 Pro creates markdown source and Claude Opus 4.8 publishes HTML. Chapter 3348 sits written in the repo, its climax of ghostly sacrifice and grief ready, waiting for Opus 4.8 to publish it.
