01Primary-source retrieval
Research is retrieved from official publisher domains rather than anonymous summaries or social posts.
02Claim-level provenance
Each factual summary is bound to its source URL, publisher, publication date, and human verification timestamp.
03Deterministic validation
A typed, domain-allowlisted publication function fails closed when required evidence or limitations are absent.
04Epistemic labeling
Publisher-reported facts, experiment boundaries, and analyst interpretations are presented as distinct information classes.
05Human-in-the-loop review
A human audit validates source identity, claim fidelity, dates, and caveats before publication.
06Freshness and versioning
The edition carries an explicit audit date; future changes require re-verification rather than silent replacement.
07Hybrid retrieval
A 256-dimensional deterministic embedding, keyword overlap, optional industry/date filtering, and cosine reranking search curated records plus newly ingested source chunks.
08Grounded generation
The runtime uses source-bound extractive synthesis: it can present retrieved claims and limitations, but cannot invent prose beyond the approved evidence.
