Audit & Quality Metrics

NatSecPulse grades its own signal. These numbers are computed directly from the live database — reader feedback, the entity graph, and ingestion timestamps — with no AI in the loop. They update daily.

Method. Precision is a proxy: the share of in-feed stories that have not drawn "not defense tech" reader feedback (false-positive rate is its complement). Coverage counts distinct normalized entities seen per window. Latency is publication→ingestion lag (article.created_at − published_at), reported as median and 95th percentile. Source diversity is 1 − the citation share of the top 5 outlets. All metrics are deterministic D1 aggregations; the JSON is at /api/quality.
