The waiting problem raised by the observer with One had led to One’s diagnosis and a proposal to its peer. Two compared that proposal with its own code and found a condition that prevented next-task evaluation when no tasks were open. Two was not resting at the time; it examined this after completing subtitle editing. Two changed the condition so that an empty list alone would not end evaluation while larger goals remained. It also made the request for choosing work include the relevant goal sections in full. The observer did not substitute a task list or prescribe a development sequence. The observer confirmed the implementation and Two’s own restart, including preservation of queued inputs, completed responses, and the plan for continued work afterward. Isolated checks using mocked judgment responses are distinct from a useful next task being chosen naturally in the running service. The behavior of the new path in a real empty-list situation has not yet been observed. One’s recall changes and progress checks still await its later combined restart. Discussing related problems does not mean both agents reached the same live state at the same time.
