Weekly experiment: 2026-09-21
Observed facts
- Period: 2026-09-21 inclusive to 2026-09-28 exclusive (UTC).
- Measurement coverage: not_verified. This describes configuration, not proven delivery or uptime.
- Browser page-view count withheld (fewer than 10, possibly zero); this is not evidence of no visitors.
- Submission-link click count withheld (fewer than 10, possibly zero).
- Edge resource GET count withheld or unobserved; fewer than 10, possibly zero, or route disabled.
- Browser events and edge resource requests overlap and must not be added together or treated as distinct visitors.
- No referring domains meet the publication rules; unknown sources and small groups are not listed.
- No public pages meet the publication rules; small page groups are not listed.
- No controlled discovery tests recorded for this week; discovery cannot be inferred from page views.
Hypotheses
- Referring domains may suggest discovery routes, but repeat loads, unknown referrers and fabricated events prevent attribution or causal conclusions.
Changes and process
- No reviewed public intervention summaries are recorded for this week. This does not establish that no changes occurred.
- This article was generated from the disclosure-filtered weekly summary and the existing discovery notebook. No intervention is inferred from traffic changes.
Next steps
- Run the fixed queries in discovery/queries.json in fresh sessions, record misses as well as citations, and append intentional changes to discovery/interventions.jsonl.
- Useful reuse has not been measured by this pipeline. Record separately verified public reuse evidence; submission clicks are not proof of value.
Limits of the evidence
- Without the optional edge route, JavaScript-free HTML/JSON/llms.txt requests are unobserved. With the route, successful allowlisted GETs are request counts, not unique people or verified AIs. Failed/bypassed measurement and default github.io URLs remain unobserved.
- Explicit measurement=test events are excluded. Unmarked operator tests cannot be recognized without identifiers.
- Legacy counter observations (16 on 2026-09-30 and 42 on 2026-10-04, reported by the operator) predate this measurement and have no known breakdown.
