+| Extension signals `cpmStage` = `config_unavailable` or `settings_missing` | Breakage at once, no lifetime limit. The signal normally arrives while the page is still loading, so it is remembered and applied when the page finishes. |

 Judged documents are never re-judged. Measurement state never expires (the old five-minute drop is gone).
 
-**Streak:** consecutive judged breakages since the last healthy answer, any tab, in memory. At 3 the persistent pixel fires once for that streak.
+**Series:** reported pages that started after the latest answered page, any tab, in memory. Pages are ordered by navigation start, not by the time of the verdict, so a page judged late (tab closed long after) does not join a series that an answered newer page has already ended. At 3 the persistent pixel fires once for the series.
