# Honest absence, designed.▌

Two scanner states flagged missing from the bundle. S6 — the marketless scan: what a read card renders when the board never priced that line. S7 — the priced-line display: the scanner surfaces the board's real lines so nobody free-types a line that doesn't exist. Both extend the boundary channel: blue is the system being honest about what it can't hand you.

NO FABRICATED MARKETS · ABSENCE IS THE DEFAULT CASE · EVERY DEAD END POINTS SOMEWHERE REAL
S6
SCAN EMPTY STATE · MARKETLESS
The user scanned a prop the board never priced. No market numbers render — there is no market. The card says so plainly, then hands the user tonight's real board. Help, never a wall.

NO LIVE MARKET FOR THIS LINE
No book prices this exact line right now — so there's no vig to strip and no fair number to show. We won't invent a market that isn't there.

STATE LAWS
01
Zero market numbers. No book, no fair, no model, no gauge at 0. An empty triplet frame is a lie — the frame doesn't render.
02
True copy only. "No live market for this line" — never "coming soon", never "check back". We don't promise markets we don't control.
03
Always a path forward. The card ends at tonight's board — with the live priced-prop count and, when the player is on the slate, their real priced props. A scan never dead-ends.
04
Help framing. "What we price now" — the product showing its inventory, never apologizing for what a book didn't post.
NOT THE SAME STATE AS
REFUSALMarket exists, our inputs are too thin to grade. Red — a model decision.
QUARANTINEMarket exists, model leg suppressed. Amber — book & fair still stand.
NO MARKETNo market exists at all. Blue boundary — nothing to price, nothing failed.

SCANNER PRICED-LINE DISPLAY · THE NUDGE
As the user picks player + stat, the scanner shows the board's real priced lines — one tap to a real triplet instead of free-typing a line that isn't priced. Only genuinely-priced lines render. "None priced" is the common case and the default design, not an edge.

PASS YDS o 275.5 PASS TD o 1.5 INT o 0.5
Quiet, structured, never alarmed — the strip keeps its shape and offers the player's real priced stats as the way through. This state must look intentional at scale: it's most of the traffic.
B · PRICED — ONE TAP TO THE TRIPLET

u 27.5 BK −106 ◆ −115 ▸
Only lines the board genuinely prices — per exact player + stat. Each row is a 44px tap straight into the real triplet. Fair previews amber; green edges only when the read behind it is takeable.
C · OFF-SLATE PLAYER
Skenes·STRIKEOUTS
NOT ON TONIGHT'S SLATE
No game, no markets, no prices to show.
Nothing renders — no chips, no suggestions, no dashed frame. Off-slate is quieter than case A: the strip states the fact in text tokens only and stops. No blue; there's no boundary to mark, just no game.
IN CONTEXT · TYPED LINE ≠ PRICED LINE THE NUDGE — REDIRECT TO THE REAL LINE, NEVER PRETEND THE TYPED ONE EXISTS

The typed line stays visible in the query — the strip never rewrites the user's intent, it shows what's actually priced next to it.
"ISN'T PRICED" IS A FACT LINE, NOT AN ERROR — BLUE TEXT, NO RED, NO SHAKE · NEAREST LINE = SAME PLAYER + STAT ONLY, NEVER A DIFFERENT STAT PASSED OFF AS CLOSE
