      "Excerpt": "## Round-4 field report — P1 enhancement (cohort-wide; filed on redfin as the lead since #81 unblocks it)\n\nEvery MCP that returns lot size returns it in **square feet**; acreage is the unit that matters for rural/mountain/land listings. Last session required hand-converting 43,560-sq-ft-per-acre three times (45,738→1.05, 13,503→0.31, 94,089→2.16) to populate a tracker column.\n\n**Fix:** add a derived `lot_size_acres` (sq ft ÷ 43,560, rounded to 2 dp) alongside the raw `lot_size` on every property",

The error message is clear and per-row capture works, so this is an ergonomics/documentation gap, not a breakage.\n\n**Ask:** let `property_id` alone resolve internally (derive the canonical URL or query by id), matching Compass's sha-only path.
