agenda-intelligence-md 0.5.5

A drop-in markdown cognition layer for AI agents that need to analyze public agenda

Agenda Intelligence MD

A drop-in markdown cognition layer that turns news scanning into decision-ready analysis.

Bottom line: agents using this protocol move from “monitor developments” to “watch these 3 indicators; if X happens, decision Y becomes urgent.”

---

Who it is for

• Policy analysts & think‑tanks – structured monitoring of regulatory and geopolitical signals.
• Sanctions & compliance teams – evidence‑backed briefs that satisfy audit requirements.
• Market‑risk analysts – concise impact snapshots for faster investment decisions.
• Founders & operators – external chaos turned into clear strategic inputs.
• AI agents – any LLM‑based system that needs to analyze public agenda without drifting into generic summaries.

CLI happy path (aha‑moment in 5‑10 min)

The start command is the primary onboarding entry‑point. It prints a trimmed source plan, a brief template, and next commands.

# 1. Onboard with a source category
agenda-intelligence start technology-ai

# Output: trimmed source plan + brief template + next commands

# 2. Validate a bundled example brief
agenda-intelligence validate-brief examples/agenda-brief.json

# 3. Score a JSON brief (structural quality check)
agenda-intelligence score examples/agenda-brief.json

# 4. Add an evidence pack for claim-level evidence discipline
agenda-intelligence score examples/agenda-brief.json --evidence examples/source/evidence-pack.json

# 5. Or score a before/after markdown example
agenda-intelligence score examples/before-after/eu-ai-act.md

Scorer status: the score command now scores JSON briefs with a heuristic 0-100 structural rubric, can include an evidence pack for claim-level support feedback, and still supports before/after markdown examples. It does not verify factual truthfulness.

Demo output (what you see after start):

=== Trimmed source plan ===
{
  "must_check": ["tech‑release", "policy‑update", "market‑data"],
  "watch_indicators": ["regulation draft", "enforcement action"]
}

=== Brief template (fill in) ===
{
  "bottom_line": "<summary>",
  "signal_classification": "<signal>",
  "what_changed": "<what changed>",
  "main_uncertainty": "<main uncertainty>",
  "watch_next": ["<indicator 1>", "<indicator 2>"]
}

Protocol · Source Policy · Schemas

Layer	Purpose	Status
Markdown protocol (Agenda-Intelligence.md)	Core reasoning workflow (signal classification, watch‑next, etc.)	✅ Stable
Source Acquisition Layer	Tells the agent which source types to check before making claims (sanctions, regulation, elections, conflict, etc.)	✅ Stable
JSON schemas	Validate briefs, evidence packs, memory cards	✅ Stable
AnalysisBank	Memory layer that stores reusable reasoning patterns from good/bad outputs	✅ Stable
Regional & Sector lenses	Central Asia & Caspian, Middle East, EU; sanctions, export controls	✅ Stable

Stable today vs Experimental

✅ Stable today

• Markdown protocol (Agenda-Intelligence.md) – core reasoning workflow.
• JSON schemas – validation for briefs, evidence packs, memory cards.
• CLI validation – validate-brief, validate-evidence, validate-manifest.
• Source plans – source-plan, list-source-packs, source-types.
• Guided start – start command prints trimmed plan + brief template.
• Brief scoring – score examples/agenda-brief.json returns a heuristic 0-100 structural quality score; add --evidence for claim-level evidence feedback.
• Evaluation toolkit – evals/rubric.md, evals/llm_judge_prompt.txt, evals/human_checklist.md, evals/cases/*.json.
• MCP read tools – validate_brief, validate_evidence, get_protocol, list_lenses, get_lens, source_plan.

🧪 Experimental / Planned

• MCP transport/server – read-only tool functions exist, but a full HTTP/WebSocket server is still on the roadmap (docs/integrations/mcp.md).
• Fetch command – stub in CLI, full evidence‑pack retrieval not implemented.
• Truthfulness evaluation – not implemented; current scoring checks structure and protocol signals.
• Generate‑brief – not yet exposed; use start + manual template fill.

Note: The project is young. Stable parts are ready for production use; experimental bits are usable for testing but may change.

Examples

• Source‑backed briefs (with evidence mode & source plans):
  examples/source-backed/eu-ai-act.md, sanctions-routing.md, red-sea-shipping.md
• Classic examples: examples/hormuz_strait_brief.md, eu-brief.md, central-asia-caspian-brief.md
• Before/after: examples/before-after/ – shows the delta when the protocol is applied.

Roadmap (high‑level)

• v0.6 – Full MCP server exposing current Python tool functions via HTTP/WebSocket.
• v0.7 – Promote score_output to rubric-based quality scoring and wire it into MCP.
• v0.8 – Automated CI quality gate using the evaluation toolkit.
• v1.0 – Stable API, broader adoption‑channel support, production‑grade MCP.

Why this exists

Most agent‑written news analysis is a polished recap that doesn’t change any decision. This project gives agents a stricter workflow so their output actually helps someone decide, hedge, or act.
