Policy-limits re-checks now record why they were triggered, such as a credential change or the hourly poll

What

The internal checks that re-fetch your account's policy limits now carry an explicit reason label through the process, for example credential_change (the default when credentials change) or hourly_poll (the default for the regular scheduled check).

Why

This is likely for internal logging or telemetry, to distinguish why a policy-limits re-check happened, rather than changing what happens for the reader directly.

How sure we are
Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtThe finding doesn't confirm what the reason is used for beyond being passed through the polling calls.
