      description: 'The public /prisms page payload. No auth, no per-user data, relative

        values only. Proxied from CAMS''s serving cache (CAMS owns prism state);

        serves the last-good copy if CAMS is briefly unreachable.


        Conditional. The page polls this so a recompute reaches a browser that is

        already open, and the payload is megabytes of series — so it carries an

        ETag over its own content and answers an unchanged poll with a 304.

        ``no-cache`` rather than a max-age: every request revalidates (nothing is

        ever served stale), but an unchanged one costs a round trip and no body.'
