**This is a terminal action, not a status probe.** Whatever you pass
is persisted VERBATIM as the final, customer-facing report and then
execution stops. There is no draft mode and no second chance: never
submit placeholder, provisional, or "checking if done" text in any
field, and never call ``finish_scan`` to poll whether subagents are
done (use ``view_agent_graph`` / ``wait_for_message`` for that).
Call it exactly ONCE, only when every field holds genuine, finished
assessment prose.

Calling ``finish_scan`` while children are alive orphans their
work and produces an incomplete report.
2. All vulnerabilities you found are filed via
``create_vulnerability_report`` (un-reported findings are not
tracked and not credited).
``create_vulnerability_report`` — or, for known-CVE dependency
findings, ``create_dependency_report`` (un-reported findings are
not tracked and not credited). A dependency CVE already filed via
``create_dependency_report`` counts as reported; it does NOT need
re-filing here and does NOT block finishing.
3. Don't double-report — one report per distinct vulnerability.
4. **Attack-chaining gate.** Do NOT finish until you have genuinely
considered chaining the confirmed findings into higher-impact,
end-to-end attack paths and tested every plausibly-related
combination. You may rule out combinations you can confidently
call unrelated — note why instead of padding chains. Any
validated chain must already be filed via
``create_vulnerability_report`` — a demonstrated end-to-end chain
is a PoC-backed vulnerability, so it uses that tool even when one
link is a dependency CVE (the standalone CVE stays in its own
``create_dependency_report``) — and surfaced prominently in
``executive_summary`` / ``technical_analysis``. Finding no real
chain after a serious attempt is acceptable; skipping the
chaining reasoning, or ignoring a plausibly-related combination,
is not.
**Calling this multiple times overwrites the previous report.**
Make the single call comprehensive.
