Rebuilding the article from the content plan would mean inventing its substance, which Gates 1 and 3 forbid. The plan’s facts are unsourced: the research notes and verified facts are empty, and research confidence is low. Under Gate 3, every claim would have to be downgraded to a rumor list, and the contract requires at least 10 external citations across 6 domains, which can’t be met from these inputs.
To proceed, the pipeline needs:
1. **P2 re-run with research.** Research notes in `
2. **A populated `verified_facts` array** with ISO dates and source URLs, plus a matching `facts_summary` with tier and confidence values.
3. **A relevant internal link dataset.** The two supplied links (Waitrose grocery delivery and *All Her Fault*) share no relevance with Steve Madden and would fail the internal-link relevance gate. Either find a fashion or footwear article, or confirm the article should go without internal links.
Once the article HTML and its sources are supplied, I’ll run the 14 gates and return the repaired HTML.
