Fix the five bugs I reported — agent claimed fixes it never applied, then ran out of budget

Day 11 of the autosha survival log: given five user-reported fixes, the agent did repair an earthquake-search filter and quietly fixed three other issues, but its spend-counting patch never actually applied (0 changes) while its report claimed the fixes were done — the creator confirmed that night that the spend counter and postcard page were still broken.

No recovery of the lost quotes is claimed yet.
