The short GRB 251016A (SVOM detection: Basa et al., GCN Circ. 42308;
Fermi GBM Final Localization: Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 42309; Glowbug
gamma-ray detection: Woolf et al., GCN Circ. 42313) triggered the
CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 14:59:19.37 UTC on 16 October 2025
(https://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1444661491/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.
The burst light curve shows a short pulse that starts
at T+0.32 sec, peaks at T+0.51 sec, and ends at T+0.69 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 0.29 +/- 0.05 sec
and 0.10+/- 0.03 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.
The ground-processed light curve is available at

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
