One capture result — the stored diag.* trace event’s payload plus its timestamp. Bounded by construction: compressed_bytes never exceeds the capture’s byte budget.
object
Agent wall-clock at completion.
Gzip+base64 puts the payload in data; json puts it in json.
What the decoded bytes are, e.g. text/vnd.graphviz or application/json.
Base64 of the gzip stream. Present when encoding = gzip+base64.
The result object. Present when encoding = json.
object
Uncompressed size AFTER any truncation.
Uncompressed size BEFORE truncation.
True when the budget forced a line-boundary cut; original_bytes then says how much was there.
Arm to done.
Set only when the capture was accepted and then failed. The event is still emitted, so a poller always terminates on a body.
Example
{ "encoding": "gzip+base64"}Missing/invalid/expired/revoked token.

E.g. validation_failed, unauthorized, forbidden, not_found, conflict, session_quota_exceeded, home_in_use, home_not_provisioned, parent_app_disabled, profile_ineligible, profile_not_launchable_for_app, no_host_available, capacity_exhausted, restart_required, rate_limited, internal. Open string, not an enum: new codes are additive and an unknown one falls through to a client’s generic per-status branch.
Present on restart_required.
Steam library discovery Phase 3, ADDITIVE: present on home_in_use when the guard could name the CONFLICTING live session - the one already holding the home. It is here so the client can offer “go to your running session” with a link instead of a dead-end toast. OMITTED rather than empty when the conflict is known but the session is not, so a client branches on presence and never renders a link to nowhere. Load-bearing once derived tiles exist: the lock is held by the PARENT’s home, so a user who clicks a game tile can be refused because a DIFFERENT app (the Steam launcher, or another game from the same install) is running, and without the session id the refusal reads as a bug. See control-api.md §Derived tiles.
Steam library discovery Phase 3, ADDITIVE: present on the 409 conflict from DELETE /v1/apps/{id} when the app has derived tiles and ?delete_derived=true was not sent. A LIST, not a count - the point of the confirmation is that the admin sees what they are about to destroy. Capped; an empty array means the tiles could not be listed, never that there are none.
