Did you specifically ask the IRCC agent if your eligibility was review required or recommended passed?
Oh, I got my PR now, but back in March and April, when I called, they only said my Eligibility was under review, meaning they were checking it, not review required. So no, I don't trust that they have access to give us details information as the GCMS notes.

How long are they taking to process CEC express entry files?
I got my AOR on 1st Feb 2023.

It depends on each individual application, no application is the same. For most CEC applicants, the processing time should be within 5 months; if you have a more complicated case, it would be longer.
For me, my application was under review required for almost 4 months, so the total processing time of my application from AOR to Approval email was 6 months and 20 days

I applied for CEC on June 28th, 2023. Received AOR on the same day and Review of additional documents is changed from N/A to we are reviewing on Nov 6th. Also, The eligibility shows completed in the tracker but in Gckey it says We are still reviewing your eligibility. I am unable to understand what exactly is happening. Can anyone please help me?

It means eligibility was completed. The tracker info is usually up to date and CIC account info lags behind.
