Recorded 30 July 2026. The first tab is the keyless cache preview — you can run that exact call yourself further down this page.

Fewer results, and the reason for each

Every candidate is checked against every criterion you gave, and the ones that fail are thrown away rather than used to reach the number you asked for.

1. 01

   Expand

   Your sentence becomes search terms — every term required, not whichever one is broadest.

2. 02

   Collect

   Candidates come back from the network, plus anything already in the cache from earlier runs.

3. 03

   Verify

   A model checks each candidate against each criterion. Failures are dropped, with the quote that failed them.

returned as match_evidence on every result from search_people and start_social_job

Every one of those four was dropped. When nothing genuinely matches, the honest answer is an empty list — and that is the answer you get.

What comes back

Normalized profiles, the posts behind them, and a contact email where one exists. These are the field names your agent receives, per network.

Mirrors GET https://stormy.ai/api/v1/capabilities → fields_by_platform, which is public and needs no key.

We test in public

Thirteen persona queries live in the repo beside the code that runs them — the exact wording, the network, the target count and the fill floor a run has to clear. Two of the floors are zero, because those queries are supposed to come back empty.

The fill floor is the share of the target count a run must return to pass. Publishing the two queries we expect to fail is the point: a search product is worth what it refuses to return, and a harness that rewards filling the quota would teach the pipeline to invent matches. We are not publishing per-run scores here until the numbers are stable enough to stand behind — when they are, this table gets two more columns.
