How a situation developed, phase by phase, with the turning points marked.

Name the subject. It sets out the arc in one line, then the phases the situation moved through, a dated timeline, the moments that turned it, where it stands now, where it is heading, the signals to watch and the questions still open.
Anyone joining a story late: a new hire on a long-running account, a reporter picking up a beat, a student who needs the sequence before the argument.
These are the headings the result renders, read from the same promise the form makes before you spend a credit. A section that depends on what the record holds is rendered when it can be and never promised here.
A date is on the timeline because a source carries it. Where the sequence is disputed the disagreement is recorded rather than resolved, and the projection of where it heads is labelled as a projection.
A claim the scan could not source is marked as such rather than dressed up. How the grades work →
A domain may name it in its own words and price it on its own terms; each row is what that domain shows.

The fastest way to judge the result is to pick a subject you know cold and read it against what you know. The scan names its credit cost before it runs.
