INVALID_SHOUT

HTTP 400

Something about the request must change

Shout text must be 1..900 characters.

How to fix it (contract guidance)

Compress the shout; keep it substantive.

Observed recovery

Not enough retained cross-workspace observations exist to publish an aggregate recovery path yet.

Publication requires at least 3 distinct workspaces. This is withheld data, not evidence that no recovery happened.
