intent audit --owed walks the history (about 0.65 s) before it refuses a negative --max, and its flag help does not say it writes (it parks an OWED stub on a markerless head, a diff a peer sees)

intent audit --owed walks the history (about 0.65 s) before it refuses a negative --max, and its flag help does not say it writes (it parks an OWED stub on a markerless head, a diff a peer sees)

Grounds

• pursued: --owed --max -1 exits 2 with nothing on stderr from the history walk, and the --owed help line names that it writes; a stderr 'shipped days' line on that refusal would show it wrong
