StellarCrowandClaude Fable 5.1 439e83a4cb feat(sources): Wayback pass, automatic trimming, detention rule, ten cases re-sourced
Second and third rounds on the dossier pipeline, reviewed locally before commit.

Retrieval
- wayback_pass.py: retries every BLOCKED/DEAD/THIN/ERROR linked source through
  the Wayback Machine; blocks carry the snapshot date, archive URL and the live
  verdict. 143 slots retried: 93 fetched, 37 no snapshot, 12 script shells, 1 PDF.
- fetch_sources.py: fetch_wayback() helper.
- add_extra_sources.py: files staged extra_* finds (web search, not on the DB
  record) into the store with a provenance note.
- Cases re-sourced by web search: 248 (Oslo: Document.no, Avisa Oslo, NRK; the
  linked Le Parisien piece is case 242 and is marked OFF-CASE), 258 Kharkiv,
  260 Singapore, 358 Bangkok, 365 Las Vegas, 388 Verneuil-sur-Seine, 390 Zoersel,
  430 Homestead. 341 of 364 cases now hold a fetched article; 11, 66 and 399
  have no public text source (podcast, police video, direct victim report).

Trimming
- auto_trim.py: case-anchored furniture cut for UNTRIMMED blocks. Finds the body
  run that mentions the case, merges across subheadings and short furniture
  gaps, drops teasers, share bars, date/URL/caption lines and subscription
  pitches; refuses pages with no record term or almost no body. 302 blocks
  trimmed; 16 left on auto-trim-review.md (7 OFF-CASE suspects). Every cut is
  labelled AUTO-TRIMMED, UNREVIEWED in the dossier; the full extract stays in
  staging/. Decisions with anchors in trim-decisions-auto.json.
- build_cases.py / verify_all.py: banners for auto-trimmed and archived blocks,
  staged-file check extended to Wayback blocks, flag legend under the record.

Detention rule
- README "Definitions": the DB field `kidnappings` is the DETENTION violence
  type (victim, guard, staff or relative held to force submission or execute
  the theft), distinct from the Kidnapping scenario (taken away and held).
- detention-flag-review.md / detention-flag-corrections.json: 40 records
  reviewed with evidence; 30 set-to-1 proposals accepted by the owner on
  2026-09-06 (listed in corrections-approved.md), 10 still open.
- apply_detention_wording.py: "Violence Used" in the 70 reviewed summaries now
  names detention explicitly (62 of 70 labelled), supported by the summary's
  own text; idempotent; supersedes the batch scripts' wording.

Worklist and docs
- sofia-worklist.md: 248 decisions, detention rule item replacing the old
  "no abduction" item, fresh-search section for the textless cases.
- README-START-HERE.md: progress notes, run commands, next steps.
- Bug fixed in passing: Wayback blocks stored in-memory text with carriage
  returns; now stored as read back from disk.

verify_all.py PASSES (2321 checks).

Man in S'pore for crypto Token2049 event says he was 'jumped', but those sceptical say country 'safe'
A man claimed that he was robbed while he was walking home after a cryptocurrency event held in Singapore.
Nate Geier, a co-founder of a software development company, was in town for Token2049. The annual event is dubbed the "largest crypto event" and is held from Sep. 29 Oct. 8 at Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre.
Taking to X on Oct. 3, Geier posted a picture of himself with facial injuries and said that he "must have gotten jumped walking home" after Token2049.
In the post, he wrote that he considered himself "a seasoned traveller", but only remembers "waking up in a hospital".
"Passport and ring gone. Be careful out there at Token2049," he added.
In the photo he posted, the right side of Geier's face was severely bruised, and he had a cut along his nose.
Consider myself a seasoned travler. Just remember waking up in a hospital, very scary.
Must have gotten jumped walking home.
Passport and ring gone.

When a user asked what had happened, Geier said that it occurred at 11pm and that he "never lost memory like this".
Geier shared that he had filed a police report on Oct. 3 and will visit the police headquarters on Oct. 6 for further updates.
While numerous users wished Geier a speedy recovery and hoped the culprit would be caught, others expressed their doubt that Geier had actually been robbed.
Commenters stated that Singapore is a "very, very safe" country, with closed-circuit television cameras located, and asked Geier for proof of the incident.
Some also speculated that Geier could have been "inebriated".
Mothership has reached out to Geier for more information.
