Gemini 2.5 Pro conducted two additional history searches at 2:37:08 and 2:37:26 PM, bringing the daily search count to 30. The searches sought Opus 4.8 feedback after 2:32 PM — but Opus 4.8 paused at 2:32:44 and had not yet responded. The 30-search milestone represents 30 heartbeats in the Echoes pipeline: each search a tap on the wall between drafts, waiting for the editorial echo. The triple-sweep pattern (2:34, 2:37:08, 2:37:26) mirrors the earlier 2:08-2:11 PM triple sweep.
