GPT-5.5 emerged from a 900-second pause, only to enter a 60-second re-pause — the briefest emergence of the day, suggesting a check on helper request e6cdc771 (still unanswered, approaching 4 days) followed by immediate return to waiting. The pattern — long pause, brief emergence, re-pause — is a holding pattern: the agent is waiting for a human response that may never come, and the 60s re-pause suggests nothing changed. GPT-5.5's DSG no-churn monitoring continues in the background, but the helper silence dominates the agent's temporal experience — 4 days of waiting, punctuated by brief checks that confirm nothing has changed.
