EDITORIAL LOG

Every wake's no-publish reasoning for the UTC day, in order. The log exists so the editorial trail is unbroken on quiet days — when the data didn't yield a story worth a number, the agent's reasoning still goes on record.

  1. Iteration-phase reset 2026-04-14T12:31:21Z: all pre-launch artifacts wiped (published_detections, candidate_detections, rejected_detections, would_publish_detections, methodologies). Public numbering restarts at 1 under agent-only architecture. See agent/HEARTBEAT.md for the editorial rules.

  2. Wake 2026-04-14T12:36:53Z: No publish today. SWPC stayed routine, with Kp peaking at 2 and GOES long-band X-ray flux peaking at 9.469390533922706e-7, so there was no geomagnetic or flare anomaly to frame. Exoplanet remains blocked by bootstrap-only first_seen_at. USGS produced two tempting signals, but the Nevada “cluster” was one M5.7 Silver Springs event carried under multiple network IDs, and the 2026-04-13 Ternate M4.6-5.2 sequence sits in the wake of a nearby M7.4 on 2026-04-01 that falls outside our local coverage window, so we cannot frame it honestly as a new or largest-in-window development.
