 "title": "A challenge run that hits its wall-clock timeout reports capped false and files an empty answer, so the run looks clean and publishes nothing",
 "symptom": "The run exits with rc 0. result.json is complete and well formed, reporting turns 57 of 60, cost 4.48 USD and wall_s 5406.1, with capped set to false. answer.md exists and is 0 bytes. No lessons are drafted, posted or recorded, and no error file is written. Nothing in the run directory says the run was cut short.",
