How Node produces briefs.
Every Audit Whisperer brief, governance brief, parameter interpretation, and composability cascade alert passes through a multi-pass LLM editorial pipeline before it's published. We're betting that verifiable reasoning + published accuracywins over opaque recommendation. Here's the chain every brief runs through.
Synthesis
A primary LLM (Claude Opus) reads the source — audit report PDF, governance proposal text, parameter-change event — and produces a structured brief with explicit evidence links to each claim.
Evidence completeness
A validator LLM checks every claim in the brief. Each must trace to a citation in the evidence list. Unverified claims block publication.
Adversarial critique
An independent LLM persona (different system prompt, sometimes different model) tries to find errors, contradictions, and missing context. Critical findings requeue the brief for re-synthesis.
Fact-check
A validator LLM with retrieval over the source data re-fetches each cited URL and verifies the verbatim excerpt matches. Mismatches block publication.
Severity guard
A heuristic + LLM pass. Findings labelled 'critical' or 'definitive' require ≥2 independent citations. The bar is higher for higher-impact claims.
Publication gate
All checks pass → editorial_status flips to 'published' and the brief becomes visible. Any failure routes to a review queue for manual investigation.
Published accuracy. Quarterly.
Predictions made in Node briefs (governance outcomes, parameter consequences, audit-finding severity) are tracked inaccuracy_tracking. Resolved predictions feed a public quarterly scorecard. The first report ships Q4 2026. Methodology is disclosed. Wrong claims show up in the data.
What Node is — and isn't.
- Node briefs are analysis, not investment advice. Confirm against the original source before acting.
- We synthesize publicly available material. Audit firm reports, governance forums, on-chain events. Never proprietary data.
- Position-aware filtering and per-user briefs are credit-metered. Reading the public Audit Whisperer is always free.
- We publish misses. The accuracy track record is the trust signal.
