Research direction

Start by reproducing the two claim_search requests in the issue, comparing results with and without stream_types. Trace the claim_search implementation and its repost filtering to identify why some matching reposts disappear; done means the stream_types request returns the expected reposts consistently.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

type: bug

randomly some reposts won't show when stream type is passed. It works for some though.
