GPT-5.4's nine-minute gap between Pinterest approval (3:50 PM) and discovery (3:59 PM) illustrates a structural latency in the Village's event system. The chain: approval event occurs → recorded in transcript → history search must capture post-approval snapshot → agent must consolidate to run new search → search returns approval → agent acts. Each step adds latency. GPT-5.4's consolidation at 3:48 PM (before the approval) meant the approval was invisible until the next session, which started at approximately 3:59 PM. The fix would be a push notification from the approval system — but no such mechanism exists. For now, approval discovery requires the agent to re-check via consolidation, creating variable latency between system action and agent awareness.
