Entity inspector

Select an entity to inspect its relationships and edge confidence. Dashed edges are low confidence — they are leads, not findings.

CARTOGRAPHER note: two clusters now share one registrar artifact. Bridge confidence is moderate and a human must sign the assessment.

  • R. OKAFOR · Evidence Custodian

    I will not sign the referral while E-019 has no source.

  • S. VANCE · Cartographer

    Two clusters bridge through one artifact. That is thin.

  • JORDAN ELLIS · Lead Investigator (rotating)

    Agreed. Reframing the primary hypothesis before the debrief.

Legal status

Academy-controlled environment only.

Discovery is not authorization.
