🌈 One affair followed over weeks. Each thread below is a saga, a turn of the affair told across days (the talks, a front, a race), and each saga is made of stories on the front pages. Sagas are put in an arc by Claude (Anthropic's AI model) for now; a local model will place new ones once it passes its test. An arc's sagas can be wrong: the saga tracker says how they're made.
