Development record
2026-10-10 — Ruling of the product thinker on the bundled pace (given in a build session, on the report that its run had entered a 300-minute pause): "Remove that forever, we don't need a pause", then "it must be set to zero by default". The bundled pause of decision 5 of itd-2609201925079472 (120 minutes of work, 300 of pause) becomes 0: `BundledPauseMinutes` is 0, so a run that sets no pace runs window after window with no pause, and a repository or machine that wants one sets `pace.pause_minutes`. The working window, the sub-agent ceiling and the fix rounds are unchanged. The intent's record keeps decision 5 and its first criterion as written (120/300), which this entry supersedes for the pause; iss-2610100546338578 carries the change.

- iss-2610100546338578A paced run pauses 300 minutes after every 120-minute window by default: the bundled pace is 120/300, so an implement run that outlives its first window stops every stage, landing moves included, for five hours unless a flag or a configuration layer sets the pause. The product thinker ruled on 2026-10-10 that no pause is needed and that the default must be zero.
- itd-2609201925079472An autonomous run paces itself by default, and one flag sets the pace
