A Budget for Looking
Sets a cap on searches or pages per task, with a stop-and-report rule when it's spent.
Asks every "found nothing" to say where it looked and what it couldn't reach.
The ECHO line
Did it find nothing, or look nowhere?
For research, watch and audit roles, and any role that reports zeros. It asks every empty result to name the places searched and the places it couldn't open, so you can tell a blocked source from an empty one. An honest zero, with its search list, counts as good work.
④ Invitation
Any role that searches, watches or audits, or reports counts that can come back zero.
