The first stage of the wires' UX, from the owner's memo of 13 October and three agents fired up for it. Graphs (card 053): wire/graphs.js draws the edition from the bundle alone, in the browser, as SVG made of text nodes with every colour a theme token: a provenance strip under every headline (the primary, each covering source by licence tier, the quote's source ringed), and folded in the header the stories per day of the last fortnight by beat, the threads on a date axis and the entities two or more stories name; a sources tally and a story-by-persona matrix are ready for the overview. Tested in admin/build/test_graphs.mjs (in CI) on a fixture with hostile and malformed shapes, in Chromium, and on the four real bundles; two more checks in test_wire.mjs. Infographics (card 054): admin/build/infographics.py makes one hero per edition and one card per added story through dev.tools.sgraph.ai, with a cost ledger per image, per edition, per wire and per month; the key from the environment only, a dry run without it; the tripwire now also catches an OpenRouter key. The design (card 055): admin/notes/2026-10-13__five-wires-five-pages.md with the architect's and the designer's notes and screenshots. Open: the first live edition with pictures (056, on the key) and the overview at /wire/ with the Industry Wire moving to /wire/industry/ (057, on the owner's yes). Also: a note to the desks that the first unattended runs of 14 October did not reach the vaults.
