Pull request overview

This PR strengthens the project’s political-intelligence tradecraft by (1) requiring probabilistic claims (WEP/DIW/scenario/coalition probabilities) to be anchored to explicit base-rate datasets and (2) tightening the analysis gate to enforce full ACH coverage of all Key Judgments (KJs), plus a higher wildcard minimum.

Changes:

  • Added new calibration artefacts (calibration ledger + Admiralty rubric) and base-rate JSON datasets to anchor priors.
  • Updated analysis templates (wildcards + devil’s advocate) to require base-rate anchoring and explicit KJ→ACH coverage mapping.
  • Extended the analysis gate to enforce 100% KJ coverage, ≥15 wildcards, and banned “uncalibrated probability” phrasing unless accompanied by a base-rate citation.

- Merge origin/main with conflict resolution in 05-analysis-gate.md and devils-advocate.md
- Replace raw KJ-grep count with unique-set comparison + ## Key Judgment Coverage Matrix heading check (comment 1)
- Load uncalibrated-probability banned phrases directly from political-style-guide.json so gate and JSON cannot drift (comment 2)
- Align calibration-ledger nordic_coalition_quarterly_survival_rate prior to dataset value 89 (comment 3)
- Remove $schema metaschema URL from base-rate dataset instances (comments 4, 6, 8)
- Standardise _pct suffix in coalition-formation-outcomes aggregate_rates (comment 5)
- Clarify cross_bloc_amendment_survival_rate_pct is a parallel-track measure, not strict subset (comment 7)
- Reconcile ministerial-answer-quality tier percentages: tier3_substantive_no_commit_rate_pct 32→43 so tier1_2(46)+tier3(43)+tier4_plus(11)=100 and tier3_plus(54)=tier3(43)+tier4_plus(11) (comment 9)
- Remove overly broad "analyst judgement, not" banned-phrase prefix that could match legitimate sentences via literal substring matching; add "analyst judgment without base-rate" US-spelling variant (comment 10)

@copilot apply changes based on the comments in this thread and resolve conflicts with main

Done in 1ca1a96 (review-comment fixes) and 478c583 (proper 2-parent merge with main).

Review comments addressed:

  1. KJ coverage now uses unique-set comparison (extracts deduplicated KJ-N IDs) anchored to the ## Key Judgment Coverage Matrix section — no more raw line counts.
  2. Banned-phrase regex is loaded from political-style-guide.json §uncalibrated-probability via jq (with hardcoded fallback) so the gate and JSON cannot drift.
  3. Ledger prior aligned to dataset value (89%).
    4/6/8. $schema metaschema URL removed from all four base-rate dataset instances.
  4. Standardised _pct suffix on the two coalition-formation aggregate keys (and updated ledger references).
  5. cross_bloc_amendment_survival_rate_pct note clarified as parallel-track (not strict subset).
  6. Ministerial tier percentages reconciled: tier3_substantive_no_commit_rate_pct 32→43 so 46+43+11=100 and 43+11=54.
  7. Removed overly broad analyst judgement, not prefix; added US-spelling analyst judgment without base-rate variant.

npx vitest run tests/agentic-analysis-gate.test.ts and tests/validate-article.test.ts both green (84 + 41 tests).
