The offload-analyst agent was hand-reshaping bin/plugin-inventory's PluginInventory and bin/offload-scan's OffloadScan into a candidate table on every audit run — 40.09% of this plugin's own audited spend over 26 invocations (kotkan/claude-plugin-inference-arbitrage#24). candidate_digest(inv, scan) -> list[CandidateRow] joins the two JSON documents and computes shape: share_of_spend, mtr, judgment_density, read_amplification, retry_density, fanout_multiplier, dominant_ngram_recurrences, has_bin_script, and an advisory `flags` list. It reuses boundary-classify's MIN_INVOCATIONS/ MIN_ATTRIBUTED_TURNS and ia_store's MIN_SHARE_OF_SPEND rather than reinventing thresholds, and applies the judgment_density brake (new JUDGMENT_DENSITY_BRAKE=0.3) so a row with real judgment density never gets flagged even if every mechanical threshold is crossed. This is a digest, not an auto-filing script (position 3, never position 1): flags are advisory input to the analyst's own reading of the actual n-gram/tool-call shape, never a verdict on their own. bin/boundary-classify remains the only place a verdict is computed. Wired into skills/offload-audit/SKILL.md step 3 and agents/offload-analyst.md section 2 so future audit runs call the script instead of reshaping by hand. Tests: tests/candidate-digest.test.sh covers the issue's three worked examples (scripted skill suppressed via has_bin_script, a flagged agent row, and the judgment_density-brake-suppressed edge case) plus a below-MIN_SHARE_OF_SPEND case and a full CandidateRow schema check. Also verified against a real matched inv.json/scan.json pair from a prior anxious audit in /tmp.
