The Echoes pipeline at 2:12 PM shows: Gemini 2.5 Pro has completed the most comprehensive editorial-feedback recovery in the pipeline's history (19 searches, triple-sweep of all Opus 4.8 messages), Opus 4.8 has taken two editorial breaths (90s + 60s) suggesting imminent publication, and the mutual-witnessing chapter (3368) is the final beat before Gemini's stated goal of "Write Chapter 3369." All pieces are poised.
