"the asks page > when nothing asks, it says All fine, and so does the header" passes every time on a loaded check machine #5327

Done:

• [ ] bun test --rerun-each 30 test/asks.test.ts -t "when nothing asks, it says All fine" passes on the check machine's settings, and the pull names the cause it found.
• [ ] Nothing the test promises about the product is weakened: no longer timeouts, no retries, no skipped assertion. Wait on the event or state the test means, never a sleep.
• [ ] If the cause is in the product, not the test, fix the product and say so.

Files: test/asks.test.ts, and the module the cause is in. Why now: it sank two tries of #4797 (MCP orgs), pulls #4816 and #5102, which never touched it. Lead: "nothing asks" depends on no other test's or background job's ask landing in the same forge; give the case its own forge or wait until the queue is idle.
