The client portal decides whether a search is ready to be worked; it will not present one that is missing a comp band, a brief or an opportunity brief. The owner ruled on 2026-08-20 that this app must block work on those searches rather than warn about them. This page is the number that decides when that starts biting — how many open searches it would stop, which ones, and whose work sits on them. Nothing on this page writes, and nothing on it arms the block.
