How long newly added material may take to become findable — AC-4.
Sixty seconds, and the number is a commitment rather than an observation: indexing runs on the worker tier, so the delay is queue latency plus embedding time, and a target far below queue latency would be a promise the architecture cannot keep. A user who attaches a document and asks about it immediately is the case this bounds, and a minute is what "shortly" honestly means for a document that has to be read, chunked and embedded.
