      summary: The finding inbox
      description: 'Outstanding problems rather than audit results. A finding is one problem on one logical page against one requirement, for as long as that pairing exists: a page that fails the same rule every night is one finding, not one per night. Defaults to everything not resolved. Use sort=created for bounded cursor pages, newest creation time then ID descending. Creation time is immutable when a later audit sees the same problem, so updates do not move findings across the cursor. Filters are evaluated on each request; pages are not a frozen snapshot of membership. Omit sort for the legacy last-seen descending, ID ascending offset list. Summary counts are separate from the number of loaded findings.'
