User explicit: "1 bilhão de entusiastas pelo mundo ovni" — site is for the
UFO-curious public, not for skeptics. The 8-detective scaffolding becomes
invisible plumbing; the reader sees stories about what was observed.
Reader-facing changes:
New homepage (web/app/page.tsx)
- SiteHeader: magazine-style top nav (no detective tiles)
- HeroBanner: full-bleed editorial opener with declassified-page art
background, display-serif headline, live stats row (122 docs,
2047 events, 1861 witnesses, 867 craft catalogued)
- FeaturedCase: cover-story treatment of the most recent case_report,
uses a real document page as hero image, links to /c/[slug]
- PortalGrid: 6 thematic doorways into the archive — Sightings,
Witnesses, Craft, Hot spots, Programs, Documents — each tile shows
a real entity count and short editorial blurb
- GreatestHits: top 9 most-cited events from the corpus
(Kenneth Arnold 1947, Mantell 1948, …) as a magazine grid
- Doc list kept but reframed as "the primary record"
New sub-pages (5)
- /sightings → events (2047), magazine grid
- /witnesses → people (1861), compact table
- /objects → uap_objects (867), magazine grid
- /locations → locations (1757), compact table
- /operations → organizations (1596), compact table
- /documents → full doc list with thumbnails (mirrors homepage section
for direct deep-link)
All share <EntityListPage> shell with per-page i18n + JSON-LD ItemList
Stripped detective surfacing
- /jobs/[id]: "Sherlock Holmes / Dr. Watson" → "Investigation in progress"
- chat-bubble: detective-named card → neutral "Investigação em andamento"
- quick-launch: 7-kind detective dropdown → single "investigar um caso"
input (kind=case_report hardcoded)
- /bureau: rewritten as the case-file library (no artefact dumps)
Typography + design
- Fraunces variable serif loaded for display headings
(`.font-display` class)
- Gold-amber accent (#e0c080) unified as the brand colour
- Asymmetric magazine grids (1+2+3 column, generous whitespace)
- Hover micro-interactions (image scale on featured case, translateX
on portal arrows)
SEO + GEO
- layout.tsx metadataBase + title.template + per-route Metadata exports
- Organization JSON-LD on root layout
- WebSite + SearchAction JSON-LD on homepage
- CollectionPage + ItemList JSON-LD on every entity list page
- openGraph + twitter cards, pt-BR primary + en-US alternate
- ai:purpose meta tag for Generative Engine Optimization — declares
the site as a citation-linked primary-source archive
- robots: index + follow with large image preview
The detectives themselves remain alive in the backend (runtime, DB, audit
log), but the reader never sees "Holmes / Sun-Tzu / Watson" in the UI. The
next phase will reorient case-writer to write as a single best-seller voice
synthesising all the internal sources.

Builds on top of W3.9 to turn the homepage Bureau from a read-only
dashboard into a working command center.
UI improvements (web/components/bureau-snapshot.tsx):
- Detective tiles are now <Link>s — each navigates to its primary
artefact section in /bureau (Holmes→#hypotheses, Locard→#evidence,
Dupin→#contradictions, Schneier→#hypotheses, Poirot→#witnesses,
Taleb→#outliers, Tetlock→#hypotheses, Case-Writer→#reports). Hover
bg matches the detective's tone color.
- <QuickLaunch /> form inserted right under the tiles.
New <QuickLaunch /> client component:
- Detective dropdown (7 active kinds; evidence_chain not yet exposed
here since it needs a doc_id better picked from the doc page).
- Single input swaps placeholder + aria-label by kind: question for
Holmes, topic for Dupin/Taleb/Case-Writer, hypothesis_id for
Schneier/Tetlock, person_id for Poirot.
- Submits to POST /api/bureau/launch and redirects to /jobs/[id]
via the next.js router.
- Loading state ("queueing…") + error display inline.
POST /api/bureau/launch (web/app/api/bureau/launch/route.ts):
- Same 8-kind validator as the chat tool's request_investigation.
- Auth required when Supabase is configured (triggered_by = user:email).
- Returns { job_id, kind, detective, status_url, eta_seconds }.
DocBureauPanel on /d/[docId] (web/components/doc-bureau-panel.tsx):
- Server component inserted between the doc header and
AnomalyHighlights.
- Surfaces every bureau artefact that touches the doc:
· Evidence whose source_page_id starts with docId/p
· Hypotheses citing any of those evidence_ids
· Contradictions whose chunks[] has any item with this doc_id
· Gaps/outliers with scope.doc_id == docId
· Case reports whose markdown body references docId (filesystem scan)
- Empty state shows "Investigation Bureau — untouched" with a CTA
linking back to the homepage to launch the first investigation.
- When non-empty, header counts total artefacts + links to /bureau
for the full view.
Metadata (web/app/layout.tsx):
- description rewritten from "Investigative wiki of the US Department
of War UAP/UFO archive (war.gov/ufo)" to one that names the bureau
+ the 8 detectives. Affects SERP previews + social-card defaults.
