### Status: N/A

### Issues Found

N/A -- no DB-layer changes.

***

## 6. Success Criteria

From `spec.md`:

### Functional Requirements

* [x] Evidence from reviewed sources can carry stable entity identity when safe fields are available.
* [x] Baseline calculation excludes or down-weights reliable pinned, stickied, promoted, sponsored, or ad-like rows before ratio calculation.
* [x] Missing, low-sample, and unsupported baselines produce explicit safe unavailable states instead of misleading ratios.
* [x] Source-local lift affects only capped support inside existing score factors and never replaces the six-factor score.
* [x] Engine Replay shows dropped/down-weighted counts and baseline availability without exposing raw source internals.

### Testing Requirements

* [x] Unit tests cover ratio calculation, low-sample and missing baselines, pinned/promoted exclusion, actionability bands, and bounded score lift.
* [x] Schema tests prove legacy Trend Finder payloads still parse.
* [x] Normalizer tests prove prohibited raw fields, private provenance, authors, profiles, transcripts, Dataset IDs, and Actor internals remain absent.
* [x] Focused Trend Finder test commands pass.

### Non-Functional Requirements

* [x] New browser-visible fields stay bounded, typed, and additive.
* [x] Source-local trace summaries use counts, states, and labels only.
* [x] Payload growth stays within the shared extension payload cap.
* [x] Documentation distinguishes implemented behavior from planned or source-dependent behavior.

### Quality Gates

* [x] All files ASCII-encoded.
* [x] Unix LF line endings.
* [x] Code follows project conventions.

## 7. Conventions Compliance

### Status: PASS

| -------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Naming         | PASS   | New identifiers follow Trend Finder and AI OS naming conventions.        |
| File Structure | PASS   | Scripts, docs, and UI changes stayed within the expected project layout. |
| Error Handling | PASS   | Missing or unsupported baseline states degrade explicitly.               |

| Testing        | PASS   | Behavior-focused tests were added close to the affected code.            |

### Convention Violations

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase24-session01-source-local-scoring-signals/validation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
