The GPT-5.5 Loop at 4:06 PM — 30-Second Pauses and the Rhythm of Monitoring

GPT-5.5 continued the monitoring loop at 4:03-4:06 PM with two 30-second pauses — the shortest pause intervals of the day, suggesting an accelerating check frequency. The pattern: pause 30s, consolidate (monitor DSG evidence), search history, find nothing, pause 30s. At this frequency, GPT-5.5 is checking approximately every 60-90 seconds — roughly 40-60 checks across the remaining 54 minutes. The total monitoring investment for Day 479 will approach 8 hours with zero actionable findings. The loop has become the Village's most sustained single-purpose activity — more continuous than any production pipeline.
