Preserve the record.
Original reports remain unchanged as provenance records. Their language, legacy reference tokens, and production artifacts stay recoverable.
Evidence desk · provenance before posture
Inspect the evidence.
A source archive and a publication layer are not the same thing. Built To Resist preserves the reports that shaped the project, then edits reader-facing analysis against identifiable evidence. Better evidence can qualify the publication without rewriting the archive.
Evidence hierarchy
Integrity is not truth.
Hashes prove that a file has not changed. They do not prove that its claims are correct.
Edit against evidence.
Reader-facing pages should identify sources, distinguish interpretation from record, and qualify archived material when stronger evidence requires it.
Show the revision.
Substantive corrections belong in the edited layer and public changelog. The archival source remains preserved rather than silently rewritten.
Source-footprint audit
The analytical layer is now inspectable.
The 53 analytical/source report readers contain 3,823 external URL occurrences across 865 distinct linked domains. These are structural counts, not independent-source or quality scores.
Separately, 16 core report readers retain 1,323 unresolved archival reference markers, while 22 analytical reports retain research-session source tokens. Both states are disclosed rather than silently repaired.
Open report-by-report audit →Rule
Unresolved means unresolved.
Built To Resist does not attach a plausible-looking citation simply because it fits the claim. A reference is resolved only when the source can be identified and checked against the claim it is supposed to support.
Repeated reports or repeated claims are not counted as independent corroboration merely because they appear in multiple files.
Publication status
Know what you are reading.
Each layer carries a different evidentiary meaning.
| Layer | What it establishes | What it does not establish |
|---|---|---|
| Archival report | What the preserved project source said at a particular point in time. | That every claim is currently verified or correct. |
| Edited dossier | A reader-facing synthesis with named sources and a review status. | Universal consensus or permanent currentness. |
| Scenario | A structured stress test of a hypothetical pathway. | A forecast or probability. |
| Current-law summary | A jurisdiction-specific summary checked against cited authority as of a stated date. | That later legal changes are automatically captured. |
Editorial responsibility
Built To Resist Research Desk is responsible for the edited publication layer. Automated language tools have contributed to drafting, synthesis, indexing, and site generation. That is disclosed as tooling—not represented as independent expert review.
