OpenMacroState now has a third audited official-source vertical slice: fed-h41-release.

What is new

  • Captures one fixed, dated Federal Reserve Board H.4.1 HTML release.
  • Emits five Wednesday balance-sheet observations in USD_million: total assets, securities held outright, primary credit, the Treasury General Account, and reserve balances.
  • Binds exact semantic headings, units, table/header relationships, row labels, and the Wednesday stock column; structural drift fails closed.
  • Hardens the core live HTTP transport against instance-level response injection.
  • Adds an offline test_only_excerpt, source contract, license boundary, CI replay, and wheel/sdist smoke tests.

Evidence boundary

This remains a prospective-capture connector. A dated Fed URL is not proof that today’s bytes were available at the historical date. released_at, vintage_at, and current pre-alpha ingested_at therefore use the core capture/replay time; historical_evidence=false and source_published_at=null. The complete live HTML artifact is conservatively marked redistribution: restricted; the checked-in fixture contains only a reviewed Board-authored excerpt.

Verification

  • 140 tests on Python 3.10–3.13
  • Ruff check and format check
  • Seven official H.4.1 page generations spanning 2021–2026
  • Offline replay for SOFR (6 observations), Treasury Debt to the Penny (2), and H.4.1 (5)
  • CI-built wheel installed and exercised outside the source checkout

OpenMacroState is still pre-alpha and is not on PyPI. Download the wheel or source archive below and verify it with SHA256SUMS.

Implemented in #20; closes #9.
