It's required to only describe progress, leaving the actual answer for the agent's final reply.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis stops the progress line from prematurely announcing a conclusion before the work is actually finished, which could otherwise be misleading if the real answer ends up different once the task completes.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
