A chain is the 180-day narrative line for one entity and domain; a cluster is the 72-hour de-duplication window that merges repeat coverage into this timeline. They share a key but never share a window.

Cluster rule
Stories are grouped by entity plus event type within a 72-hour window. Later coverage joins this timeline; a separate brief appears only when it adds a new figure, a new party, or an official confirmation.
Why no topic page yet
Some stories we cover stay single-source. They get a brief but no topic page — a topic page implies corroboration, and we do not imply it.
How we report
Dated, attributed, source-linked. Every fact traces to a numbered source.
Facts ≠ analysis. “What happened” reports; our own reasoning is labelled separately.
No invented numbers. Undisclosed figures stay undisclosed; a zero count is shown as zero.
Automated draft, deterministic gates, human review.
