Routing Thresholds
► Signal Queue
Raise the threshold when signal volume is high to surface only the strongest candidates (e.g. 0.85+).
Lower it when volume is light so there is still material to work from. Adjusting layer weights or
thresholds in the Score Signal tab re-scores every queued signal live.

When ON, the generation prompt instructs Claude to surface supporting stats, quotes, case studies, or
counter-evidence relevant to the signal and persona, and to cite sources inline. With a live API key this
relies on the model's own knowledge (no live browsing) — treat results as a research-flavored draft
to verify, not a sourced report.
► Output Configuration
No signal scored yet
API key is saved locally in your browser. Leave blank to get structured templates you can paste into Claude. Select multiple output types above to generate them all in one pass.
Configure ingestion and lens (optional), score a signal on Tab 3, optionally add it to the Signal Queue on Tab 4, pick a framework on Tab 5, set input mode / persona / POV on Tab 6, select one or more output types above, then click Generate.
