v2.2.107-audit-builder-recommended-first-action / search-to-checkout

Turn search intent into the right checkout path.

ApexScout now maps buyer intents to the safest next no-spend step: confirmed trust checks go to proof, and monetization/audit searches go to the $5 audit builder before payment. Rate-limited search checks are treated as inconclusive, not as a route absence.

Use the tiny flow for a $0.01 first payment path. Use the audit builder for a valid $5 audit request before payment.

The main conversion target is now a builder prepare request. That is the first clear sign a buyer moved from search visibility into a valid $5 audit checkout path.
