Stories are discovered from worldwide news coverage in the past 36 hours, clustered by headline similarity, then ranked by how many distinct outlets are covering each one. Breadth of independent coverage is the ranking signal, not editorial preference and not raw article volume, which would let one prolific outlet dominate.
Once every morning, automatically. Each edition carries the date and the time it was compiled, so it is always clear how current the page is.
By an explicit, published keyword map applied to the headline, not by a language model. It is deterministic and auditable: anyone can see why a story landed where it did, and anything that does not match falls to a neutral General AI bucket rather than being forced into a category. It trades some accuracy for the ability to check it.
No, and the distinction is deliberate. Coverage is a lead. A claim only enters the AI Governance Reference Library after verification against a primary source such as the statute, the regulator's own publication, or the standard itself. Press is explicitly inadmissible as evidence there.
