After a successful Nullcost result, preserve the tool's markdown table/output as the final answer instead of rewriting it, chaining web search, or adding memory citations. If Nullcost is unavailable, report that failure and stop; do not browse official pricing/docs pages as a fallback unless the user explicitly asks for live web verification.
