This is the operator map for freshness coverage: what part of the site each loop protects, how it runs, and what the publication rule is. For the latest document-family audit snapshot, see docs/mica-document-status.md.

• Source logic lives in scripts/freshness/ and scripts/update-checkers/.
• Hermes launchers live canonically in ops/hermes/scripts/ and are installed into ~/.hermes/scripts/.
• Prompts used by runtime jobs live in prompts/.
• Operational state lives in .freshness/ and is ignored by Git.

These are implemented in scripts/update-checkers/ and have canonical launchers in ops/hermes/scripts/. Some are not currently active in Hermes on this box; activate them deliberately from ops/hermes/cron-jobs.json after reviewing noise level.

Group	Source modules	Site/content area	Default cadence	Publication rule
esma	esma-mica-docs, esma-mica-qas, esma-mica-registers	EU-level ESMA docs, Q&A, registers	Weekdays morning; active in Hermes	Q&A may auto-publish only after quality gates; docs/registers review
eba	eba-micar-docs, eba-micar-qas	EU-level EBA docs and Q&A	Weekdays morning; active in Hermes	Q&A may auto-publish only after quality gates; docs review
nca-daily	nca-amf, nca-cbi	High-priority NCA pages	Weekdays morning	Human review by default
nca-weekly	nca-bafin, nca-cssf, nca-dfsa, nca-dnb-afm, iosco-crypto-assets	Lower-volume NCAs and IOSCO	Tuesday/Friday	Human review by default
legislation	eurlex-mica, eurlex-tofr	MiCA and ToFR legal text	Weekly	Human review for amendments/corrigenda
eu-political	eu-political	Commission, Parliament, Council political layer	Queue-only	Queue blog/editorial review; never auto-publish
global-standards	global-standards	IOSCO/global standard-setting signals	Queue-only	Queue blog/editorial review; never auto-publish

x-signals	x-signals plus Grok prompt	X-based regulatory signal discovery	Queue-only if enabled	Review-only, primary-source confirmation required

Section	Conventions/source of truth	Freshness loop	Review posture
MiCA legal text	_conventions/mica-legal-text.md, article corpus, _conventions/maps/article-map.json	cellar-legislation, implemented inactive eurlex-mica	Legal text changes, corrigenda, amendments, consolidated-text changes, and application-date changes require human review
ToFR articles	ToFR corpus and accuracy docs	cellar-legislation, eurlex-tofr	Human review for amendments and numbering-sensitive changes
EU-level Q&A	_conventions/q-and-a-content.md, scripts/update-checkers/lib/markdown.js, Q&A pages	esma, eba	Auto-publish candidate only after strict extraction, compact eu-level/q-and-a/ slug generation, orientation-table output, and quality gates
EU-level guidelines	_conventions/guidelines-content.md, _conventions/eu-level-page-anatomy.md	esma, eba, RSS lanes	Human review for new guideline pages and changed guideline documents
EU-level technical standards	_conventions/technical-standards-content.md, _conventions/eu-level-page-anatomy.md	esma, eba, cellar-legislation, RSS lanes	Human review for final-report changes, Commission adoption, OJ publication, and application-date changes
EU-level soft law/reports	_conventions/eu-level-page-anatomy.md	esma, eba, RSS lanes	Human review for new docs and changed docs; family-specific conventions still needed for non-guideline/non-standard subtypes
EU-level consultations	_conventions/consultations-content.md, consultation pages under eu-level/consultations/	Implemented inactive eu-political; active esma/eba may detect supervisory consultations and final reports; manual Commission lifecycle review	Review-only. Track open, closing_soon, closed, feedback_published, final_report_published, and superseded; never auto-publish consultation pages from political signals
Definitions	_conventions/definitions-content.md, scripts/build-definitions.js, definitions/, spaces/definitions/	Derived from legal-text freshness; rebuild with node scripts/build-definitions.js after source changes	Human review for legal wording changes; generator syncs generated families into live definitions/ without owning DORA definitions
National adaptations	_conventions/national-adaptations-anatomy.md, docs/ADDING-AN-NCA.md	nca-daily, nca-weekly	Human review by default; NCA pages are high-context and language-sensitive
Blog/editorial	_conventions/blog-content.md, _drafts/blog-queue.md, prompts/article-writer.md	editorial-clock, review-nudge, blog-signals, eu-political, x-signals	Freshness-triggered draft creation is part of #45; drafts require Jake approval before publish-draft.sh publishes
DORA space	Existing corpus conventions; no dedicated freshness loop yet	None	Manual maintenance until source loop is designed

• DORA has no dedicated freshness checker yet.
• Definitions have no standalone cron by design; they are refreshed as derived content after relevant legal-text source changes.
• Additional NCAs such as CySEC, MFSA, and CNMV are documented as future additions but should not be activated until source-specific checkers exist.
• X signals are useful for discovery but are not authoritative. Any blog item from X must be confirmed against primary sources.
• Existing Q&A pages have been migrated from quote-style orientation strips to orientation tables.
• Existing misleading or non-SEO slugs, especially EBA Q&A pages still named esma-qa-*, must be migrated only with redirect and backlink handling. Existing long guideline and technical-standard slugs are stable until a deliberate redirect-backed migration is scheduled.
• Legacy scripts/freshness/ RSS lanes remain active as redundancy while #45 document families move onto structured checkers; deprecation is tracked by #34.
• The personal vault contains historical mica.wtf prompts and strategy notes, but it is no longer part of the operational restore chain.

When adding or changing a checker:

1. Add or update the source module in scripts/update-checkers/sources/.
2. Update scripts/update-checkers/README.md if the group or cadence changes.
3. Update ops/hermes/cron-jobs.json if Hermes scheduling changes.
4. Update this coverage matrix.
5. Run ops/hermes/install.sh --check after deploying launcher changes.
