All rates below are over the external detector population (555 runs). A run is external when its detection job showed the Install threat-detect binary step, or when another run of the same workflow did that day — a job that was skipped or died during setup reports no steps and would otherwise be miscounted.
The rates below cover only the inspected part of the day. Collection was truncated, and the inspected runs are the earlier ones, so these percentages are a partial-day sample — not a lower bound.

Green detection jobs that published no verdict: 3 (detection steps are continue-on-error, so a missing verdict artifact is the only reliable signal for these).
