"""A repeat on a note arm is referenced, not withheld (#4101). WHY THIS EXISTS #3750 settled the argument for rules: a record the session was told about an hour ago is not a record in front of the reader now, so the second time it is the best answer the session gets the line again with a tail saying so — never silence, which is indistinguishable from "nothing matched". The note and snippet arms never got that fix. Worse, their ledger went into `semantic_search_notes` as `exclude_ids`, so the repeat left the candidate set entirely, which had three consequences: - the session got silence the second time, on the arms that fire most; - a compaction made it permanent, because the ledger outlived the context it described (the same step fixes that one layer down); - and `best_available` was measured against a candidate set the caller had already edited, so the bar could be blamed for a record the caller withheld (#3739, from the side its fix never reached). WHAT THIS PINS 1. The ledger does not reach the search. Asserted on the call's kwargs, because this is the difference between a reference and silence and every behavioural assertion below rests on it. 2. The repeat is rendered, and marked. The wording is NOT the rule arms' — "before deciding it does not apply" is the voice of a record that binds, and a dev-log borrowing it would claim authority it does not have — so what is pinned is that the line appears and is distinguishable, not its prose. 3. The telemetry splits the two (#3752 / #3668): the row's result set and the surfaced table both take FRESH only, and the repeat is COUNTED in `suppressed` instead. This is what makes a zero-result call readable — `result_count == 0` with `suppressed_count > 0` says "everything that matched, the session has already seen", which was unreportable here. 4. The deliberate exception: the write-path SYNC class still shows once. Its claim is about an edit in progress, not about a record's continuing relevance, and repeating it would be nagging rather than reminding.
