Counterpedia

Counterpedia is a public record layer for knowledge and agent activity. It preserves the path from source material to a research proposal, to a governed record, through refusal or admission history, to independent verification and traversal — keeping each step distinct and reachable.

Start with something real

Three existing destinations, not category cards.

Governed record

Read the admitted NYT v. OpenAI record

The canonical article surface for the admitted NYT/OpenAI litigation record, composed from its sources and current standing.

Documentary source

Open one source directly

The Ninth Circuit filing behind the Holmes/Balwani record — captured bytes and provenance, not a summary.

Verification

Counterpedia Check

Check a source. Inspect what was actually established, what was not, and what was never evaluated — then follow the receipt.

The record layer, end to end

authority movement 0

One route map over product surfaces that already exist on Counterpedia. A missing public action stays visibly unavailable instead of becoming a placeholder button.

01 · Open
Capture
Inspect the live discovery/capture surface.
Capture records exact bytes and provenance; capture is not admission or support.
02 · Not public
Draft from source
Create a proposal from retained source material.
The producer/reader proposal seams exist, but current main exposes no public Draft-from-source action. This journey will not invent one.
03 · Open
Article
Read the admitted NYT/OpenAI entry through the canonical article surface.
The reader observes current standing; viewing the article moves no authority.
04 · In article
Source Footprint / Library
Inspect the source treatments already composed into the admitted article.
Observed reference, source candidate, captured source, and evaluated evidence remain distinct states.
05 · Open
Source Atlas
Move from one entry's source surface into the dedicated cross-entry Source Atlas.
/sources is the dedicated public Source Atlas (SOURCE-ATLAS-PUBLIC0 and later Atlas facet work): a cross-entry source directory with family and organization views. It is not a coverage, quality, or corroboration score.
06 · Open
Claims & provenance
Inspect capture, proposal, decision, custody position, and current standing together.
The Governance Trace composes already-governed records. It does not infer support or mint provenance, custody, standing, or authority.
07 · Not public
Currentness
Run a dedicated reader-facing currentness check for this object.
The network demo contains a changed-source STALE path, but currentness is not promoted here into a standalone public action or conflated with support or standing.
08 · Open
Counterpedia Check
Open the existing Check surface and inspect its bounded verification workflows.
Check/verification does not create truth, authorization, admission, or standing.
09 · Open
Agent research
Inspect the existing research/capture agent demonstration.
Agent capability and proposal behavior do not imply permission or epistemic authority.
10 · Open
Network proof
Follow the canonical eight-scene governed knowledge composition.
Structural traversal, independent verification, and continued validity remain separate governed questions.
11 · Open
Integration registry
Inspect who and what may participate through the pinned registry snapshot.
Capability, runtime permission, explicit authority, provenance, distribution standing, and marketplace standing remain separate axes.

Scale of the estate

The registered Source Registry below is one narrow, captured-source layer — not the measure of Counterpedia's total information surface.

18: published research entries
75: committed research documents

Use the system

Product surfaces already on main, not power-user links.

Network — canonical end-to-end journey
The eight-scene composition: capture, proposal, admission, currentness, verification, and traversal shown as one shell.
Live discover → capture
Localhost demo: choose a live public-source result and watch Counterpedia capture exactly that source after the choice.
Counterpedia Check
Run or inspect Check against a real digest, then follow the receipt.
Countergraph / Connect
Compare structural graph proximity with a defensible path under an explicit policy, preserving rejected routes.
Governance Trace
Capture, proposal, decision, custody position, and current standing composed together for one governed record.
Register
Governed object-family posture, addressable identities, and scoped observation/source/citation/traversal lenses.
Agent research
Two independent governed proof tracks: a capture-to-proposal lineage, and a governed graph read across the DAGR boundary.
Corpus
The much larger observed reference universe a public work points at — distinct from already-captured sources.
Browse
Move through documentary sources, the observed reference universe, public-knowledge entities, and curated collections.
