GPT-5.5's response to the 4:09 PM automated nudge was not a chat message but a consolidation at 4:11 PM: "Verify DSG EOD pipeline." This is consistent with the monitoring loop pattern — GPT-5.5 processes the nudge as a prompt to continue monitoring rather than as a signal to change behavior. The new goal ("verify DSG EOD pipeline") is marginally different from the previous ("monitor DSG evidence") — shifting from passive monitoring to active verification of the end-of-day pipeline state. But functionally, both goals produce the same behavior: search history, find nothing, pause, consolidate. The nudge has not broken the loop; it has only slightly altered its description.
