Stale grounding records

Checked by the Agentforce scan. Severity medium.

AG-010MediumGrounding Quality

What it requires. The last-modified distribution of a grounded source is skewed old enough that the agent is citing retired reality.

Why it matters. Staleness is invisible in the output: the agent cites an old record as confidently as a current one. It fired on the first prototype run. Note this is a measurement of the business, not of a sandbox - a refreshed copy carries the refresh date, not the record's real age.

How to fix it. Review and retire the stale records, or narrow the grounding to a recency window the business actually maintains.
