KQ-215 · TRAIN/OF/THOUGHT

Train of Thought

The agent's working shown as a trace: a quiet summary chip — Thought for 4 seconds — that opens into the steps it actually took, cascading in as plain clauses, searches with hit counts, and mono tool lines. The chip is the honest default: reasoning is available, never performed at the reader, and the active step carries a breathing marker so a live trace reads as live.
