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.

Closes a UX gap the user surfaced: W3.5-3.8 built 8 detectives, 4 new
URL endpoints (/jobs/[id], /h/[id], /c/[slug], /api/h/[id]/red-team)
and a chat tool, but the homepage was unchanged — the bureau was
invisible unless you knew the URL or asked the chat to invoke
request_investigation.
Homepage (web/app/page.tsx):
- Title `▍ war.gov/ufo — Investigative Wiki` → `▍ The Disclosure Bureau`
- Subtitle expanded from "Holmes · Poirot · Dupin · Locard" to all 8
detectives (Holmes · Locard · Dupin · Schneier · Poirot · Taleb ·
Tetlock · Case-Writer)
- New `🔎 bureau` topbar link (gold, between graph/stats and batch)
- BureauSnapshot inserted right after the header
BureauSnapshot (web/components/bureau-snapshot.tsx) — server component:
- 8 detective tiles with role labels (each in its tone color)
- 6 clickable counters (evidence / hypotheses / contradictions /
witnesses / outliers / case reports) — anchor to /bureau#section
- 6 "recent artefacts" columns surfacing the last 3-4 of each kind:
hypotheses with prior→posterior + band + ↳reviewed_by marker,
contradictions with topic + resolution_status, evidence with
Grade badge + verbatim quote, outliers with title + scope.kind,
witness analyses with canonical_name + credibility + verdict,
case reports with slug + link to /c/<slug>
- "Recent jobs" strip linking to /jobs/[id] color-coded by status
- Reports read from /data/ufo/case/reports/ via fs.readdir + stat,
sorted by mtime — no DB round-trip needed for that section
/bureau (web/app/bureau/page.tsx) — full hub:
- Header with full counts
- 7 sections (anchored to homepage counter links): Case reports,
Hypotheses, Evidence, Contradictions, Outliers, Witnesses,
Recent jobs table — each rendering up to 100 rows
- Reports section parses frontmatter from each .md to surface topic
+ n_hypotheses + n_evidence on the card
Runtime fixes batched in:
- Poirot: coerce entity_pk via Number() — node-postgres returns
BIGINT as string by default; writer's Number.isFinite() rejected
it as "person_entity_pk required" (j-edgar-hoover retry path)
- Tetlock: write_calibration rationale cap 600 → 1200 chars. Prompt
still asks ≤ 600 but a 2× slack beats failing the job on honest
analysis. Observed live: Tetlock emitted ~620 chars on H-0003 and
the writer rejected the entire calibration.
- Case-Writer: Promise.all of 5 queries × max_parallel=2 jobs
demanded up to 10 connections against the investigator role's
rolconnlimit=4 → "too many connections for role investigator".
Sequentialized — the LLM call is the hot path, not these queries.
Smoke results visible now on the homepage:
- 3 hypotheses (H-0001/2/3) about green fireballs origin
- 3 contradictions (R-0001/2/3) about color, geographic confinement,
exclusive-green vs multicolored
- 2 evidence cards (E-0002/3) Grade B
- 3 outliers (G-0001/2/3) — including Taleb's deliberate
meteor-shower-camouflage flag
- 1 case report at /c/green-fireballs-sandia (Watson 13.4 KB,
five-act narrative, fully cited)
