Lower Webhound Report Budget
webhound_set_budgetDestructive
Reduce the budget of an active research report only when the user explicitly requests to narrow scope or conclude the investigation.
Instructions
Lower a running or paused report budget only after the user explicitly asks to reduce the remaining research scope or finish with the research already gathered. This changes the report stopping boundary; Webhound then performs normal final assembly. Never use this because partial notes look sufficient, the run is taking time, or the agent wants an earlier result.
