Find the real date behind recycled news stories.

What it does

Identifies when a news story first became public, distinguishes new developments from recycled coverage, and selects the strongest source to cite.

When to use it

Use when a news signal may be syndicated, rewritten, picked up by an aggregator, or commenting on an older event.

How to use it

Give it a news signal; it explains the origin and coverage verdict, then writes a structured finding into origin_findings.json.

What you provide

  • a news signal
