That is what this is --\na diagnosis for a request that timed out, not a result. Nothing is\ncharged for it.\n\nNull on anything that is not still running. A finished or failed crawl has\nno tab left to look at, and a crawl still in the queue has not opened one\nyet.\n\nTwo things to know when reading one. The image is the **viewport**, not\nthe whole page, so it is not the picture `/screenshot` sells -- it is a\nthumbnail at quality 60, meant to be looked at rather than kept. And\neither artefact may be missing: they are captured independently, because a\nnavigation can destroy one without touching the other, so half a snapshot\nis ordinary. The missing half reads as null rather than going absent.\n\nA blank image beside a near-empty `html` is not a broken capture -- it\nmeans the crawl stalled *inside* a navigation, with the old document\nalready replaced.
