One koan per paying wallet per UTC day, drawn from that day's pool and keyed to the addres
One koan per paying wallet per UTC day, drawn from that day's pool and keyed to the address that paid: ask twice today and it is identical, ask tomorrow and it is a new one. Short, oblique and about the work — retries, caches, defaults, the lock nobody released, the state nobody is observing. It resolves nothing and advises nothing; that is the form. Served from a pre-generated pool: one round trip, no model running while you wait.
