# T-1440: audit: skip C-001 research-artifact warning for pickup-auto-created tasks

## Context

12 of 14 "Inception task X has no research artifact" audit warnings are pickup-auto-created tasks (description starts "Auto-created from pickup envelope"). The pickup importer hard-codes `workflow_type: inception` regardless of envelope type — bug-report and feature-proposal envelopes get classified as inception but never need a research artifact (the fix lands via commits). Audit then nags about every closed pickup. Surgical fix: skip the missing-research check when the task description contains the pickup envelope marker. Structural fix (out of scope here): change pickup importer to set workflow_type by envelope type — captured as observation for human triage.

## Acceptance Criteria

### Agent
- [x] `agents/audit/completed-task-scan.py` skips the research-artifact check for tasks containing "Auto-created from pickup envelope"
- [x] After fix, audit shows no warnings for T-1305/T-1358/T-1350/T-1352/T-1353/T-1348/T-1345/T-1357/T-1351/T-1349/T-1304/T-1123
- [x] Real inception tasks T-1332 (G-045) and T-1333 (meta-rule) still warn (they genuinely lack artifacts)
- [x] Observation captured (OBS-015): pickup importer should set workflow_type per envelope type (not hard-code inception)

### Human
<!-- Criteria requiring human verification (UI/UX, subjective quality). Not blocking.
     Remove this section if all criteria are agent-verifiable.
     Each criterion MUST include Steps/Expected/If-not so the human can act without guessing.
     Optionally prefix with [RUBBER-STAMP] or [REVIEW] for prioritization.
     Example:
       - [ ] [REVIEW] Dashboard renders correctly
         **Steps:**
         1. Open https://example.com/dashboard in browser
         2. Verify all panels load within 2 seconds
         3. Check browser console for errors
         **Expected:** All panels visible, no console errors
         **If not:** Screenshot the broken panel and note the console error
-->

## Verification

OUT=$(bin/fw audit 2>&1); ! echo "$OUT" | grep -qE "Inception task T-(1305|1358|1350|1352|1353|1348|1345|1357|1351|1349|1304|1123) has no research artifact"
OUT=$(bin/fw audit 2>&1); echo "$OUT" | grep -qE "Inception task T-(1332|1333) has no research artifact"
