Curator health

We publish our own failures.

Every morning, an in-house pipeline writes the short rationale behind each daily build. When a rationale can't pass our fact-check, we don't paper over it — we fall back to a plain template and log it. This page reports how often that happened over the last 30 days, in the open.

Failure reasons seen
  • Draft failed our format check

A curated rationale is written fresh by the pipeline and verified against our parts data before it publishes. A templated one is a plain, factual fallback we use when the curated draft doesn't pass — it's the safety net, not a failure to hide. Read more on our methodology.
