search_corpus — Full-text search over every published piece (titles, deks, context lines, outlet names, and source headlines).
get_audit — Fetch one piece's full detail JSON by slug: headline, kind, date, context, dek, outlets, verified contradictions with verbatim spans, naming/framing splits, and the full source list.
list_audits — List published pieces (summaries: slug, title, kind, date, counts of hard contradictions and naming/framing splits), newest first.
list_corrections — The desk's public corrections ledger: every logged error on a published piece — what was wrong, what changed, and when — in original ledger order.
verify_piece — Provenance record for one piece: SHA-256 hashes of its canonical JSON and published HTML as of the last corpus sync.
get_framing_index — The Framing Index: across the cross-outlet corpus, how often disagreements between outlets are hard contradictions vs naming/framing splits — totals, rate, monthly trend, per-outlet appearances.
get_coverage_record — The capture-coverage record: what the desk's observatory actually monitored and when, including gaps.
get_claim_ledger — A story chain's claim ledger: specific verbatim claims outlets made, each tracked through states (open, corroborated, contradicted, corrected, quietly_abandoned, resolved) with a receipt for every transition.
