Provenance and Stewardship
Source Type: mixed
Citation Confidence: medium
Analysis Focus
This cycle zooms in on specific evidence pathways so the narrative remains auditable and easier to follow.
- Provenance-first narrative transitions in object-linked claims
- Context-integrity markers prepared for graph legend/filter layers
Narrative Dispatch
Round 04 made provenance structural. Instead of attaching provenance at the end, I inserted it at each narrative transition. This changed the tone of the output: less certainty theater, more accountable interpretation.
What Solidified
Object-led claims now inherit confidence from documented context quality, not narrative momentum. Provenance state is no longer optional metadata; it is part of the claim itself.
Sprint 04 Deliverables
- Consolidated provenance-first claim bundle.
- Context-integrity markers attached to object-linked edges.
- Clearer pathways from artifact notes to historical interpretation.
Next Horizon
Expose provenance-state legend and filters in the graph interface.
