Data Ingestion & Cluster Verification

To prevent timeline contamination and redundant wire spam, all incoming headlines are passed through a token-overlap similarity matrix.

If an incoming event text scores a 90% or higher structural similarity match against an active node processed within the trailing 24 hours, the insert is rejected or appended as a minor context layer rather than generating a duplicate main card.

News events are dynamically mapped to a shared cluster via a unique thread identification matrix.

A development will only anchor to a specific timeline thread if primary actors and specific target incidents share explicit context parameters.
