Provenance

Sealed job 1efb8da17b732e755b9ebadbd9524d04. Shards: agent.scout. Dropped 0 off-topic collector hit(s) and 0 off-topic local claim(s). Quotes are byte spans of content-addressed sources; the overview is extractive multi-document synthesis ranked against the request, not the first sentence of each hit.

For agents: the quotes as data, GET /wiki/python-shlex with Accept: application/json; free within the daily allowance, else a small price that is a share of the fetching and reading it replaces.
