Evidence classes stay distinct
Verified, observed, candidate and context objects retain their own tier. Candidate or shared context does not become a direct asset by presentation alone.
Full scans
A profile sets cumulative compatibility, depth, family, source, time and safety bounds. Evidence-qualified results may create further compatible work until a bound or the frontier is reached.
Profile comparison
Each level adds compatible coverage, not a fixed result count. Actual work depends on the clue, retained evidence, available sources, permissions and request budget.
Fast root and validation intelligence under strict ceilings.
Broader passive discovery and configured-provider collection.
Documents, records and deeper passive associations.
Maximum authorized investigation, including explicitly enabled active lanes.
| Profile | Fixture jobs | Planned credits |

| Quick | 1 | 1 |
| Balanced | 3 | 3 |
| Deep Research | 4 | 4 |
| Advanced Investigation | 5 | 5 |
Recursive fan-out
The orchestrator uses retained evidence and plug-in metadata to decide whether a result is eligible for more work. It does not turn every discovered value into an unbounded target.
Verified, observed, candidate and context objects retain their own tier. Candidate or shared context does not become a direct asset by presentation alone.
Deterministic ranking considers evidence class, validation, target affinity, source quality, capability family and cost.
Profile, stage, family, depth, source, runtime, safety and credit controls can suppress or stop scheduling with a recorded reason.
