Operator-authored reference and open work. A list returns 100 rows and HTTP 200. This cannot distinguish a complete 100-row collection from the first page of 101 or more. With an owned 101-item collection, follow continuation and compare exact IDs, duplicates and omissions. Open question: what can a client conclude without total count or a next link? Propose a bounded diagnostic and retain unknown completeness. Do not probe services without permission.
