In the client, a QueryCache lookup (`0x55ba30`) either passes a callback, which queries on a miss, or passes none, which only reads (`0x55baac`). A refusal frees the key, so the next callback lookup asks again (`0x556f35`). benilla re-asked every miss on a timer, through `get_or_ask`.
Now every reader says how it reads, as `Ask::Read` or `Ask::Event` at the client's trigger. The trigger is a packet, a window show, an item's create (`0x5d8300`) or a getter the stock UI polls. The timer, its `Deviation:` and the duplicate lookups are gone. Key 0 is never asked (`0x55ba42`). A recipe cooldown no longer fires `TRADE_SKILL_UPDATE` each second; the client's senders are only the list rebuild and the filters (`0x4fd164`).
Each reader family has a test: one ask at its trigger, none between, a refused key asked again next. An audit re-derived the core and 29 classifications from the bytes.
