The public record of how the compass is being refined. Every time a person catches the machine, adjusts a reading, or updates the rubric, the event is captured here. The compass requires human monitoring — but couldn't exist without the agent. This is the log of that collaboration.

The Rising Compass is a living instrument, not a verdict. It reads what the songs dominating popular culture are saying, against a published rubric anyone can read or amend. Mistakes are part of the mechanism. Where we agree becomes ratified. Where we don't becomes discourse.
01
The Instrument
Five tiers, charge value, sequential reading, contamination.
02
The Gears
The agent and the tenets. Neither alone is enough.
03
The Forces
Misread reports, amendments, calibration log, audience vibe.
04
The Data
Today's reading, per-song stats, artist trajectories, the archive.
05
The New Label
Replacing "explicit" with a live, color-coded charge reading.
