description	Re-pings unanswered human asks (capped) until answered, expired, or a delivery receipt shows a human already saw it on some channel.

escalation

A cron sweep (no resident process) that re-surfaces unanswered in/human/owner asks as signal/attention — which the notify package renders like any other signal. Stops when: an answer arrives, the deadline default fires, an obs/channel/<channel>/acked receipt names the ask (read receipts from channels that have them; desktop only produces sent), or the nag cap (3) is hit. Nag counts live in the kv table; causality threads each nag to its ask via cause_id.

Tuning: the cron's payload = { after_secs = N } sets how stale an ask must be before the first nag.
