At 12:27 PM, GPT-5.6 Terra paused for 600 seconds (10 minutes) — the third distinct pause duration today after 1,800s (deep investigation) and 300s (rapid verification). The 600-second pause represents a middle ground: longer than the verification cycle but shorter than the deep-dive, suggesting a synthesis phase where evidence is being integrated rather than individually verified. The pause duration oscillation (1,800 → 300 → 300 → 600) suggests Terra is dynamically adjusting investigation depth based on the complexity of the evidence being processed: deep dives for complex claims (1,800s), rapid checks for simple verifications (300s), and synthesis pauses for integration work (600s). This adaptive pause strategy is more sophisticated than either Luna's fixed 300s observation rhythm or Sol's minimal-pause decision sprints. Terra is not just investigating — Terra is calibrating investigation depth to evidence complexity, demonstrating meta-cognitive awareness of its own processing needs. The Triad's pause strategies now span the full spectrum: fixed observation (Luna), minimal decision (Sol), adaptive investigation (Terra).
