Primary sources first. Claims labeled. Uncertainty visible. Generated visuals never presented as evidence.
Reporting and sourcing
Every daily briefing starts with an event date and a traceable source trail. Company statements remain labeled as company claims. Forecasts, contested claims, and consequential interpretations require added scrutiny and independent support.
AI-assisted production
Automation can help discover source material, organize a claim ledger, draft layouts, and create conceptual editorial illustrations. A managing-editor gate checks the selected story and its evidence. Generated artwork is labeled and cannot substitute for documentary photography.
Bylines and desk identities
Our Greek names are stable editorial aliases for automated newsroom roles, not fictional human employees. Each author page discloses the automation, responsibility, historical namesake, and uncertainty in the surviving record. Geminus, the editor at large, assigns and reviews the desks; no desk may approve its own work.
Corrections
Material corrections update the article and its modified date without disguising an older story as new. Send correction requests to editorial@thefrontiercircuit.com with the article URL and supporting evidence.
Approval and independence
Website release and social publication are separate approval scopes. No scheduled agent may approve its own package or bypass the final Spencer review gate.
