Sources¶
SITREP ISR draws from a curated list of open sources. The list is public and contributor-editable — if you think we're missing something important or monitoring something we shouldn't be, the door is open.
Where the source list lives¶
| Artefact | Where | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Public inventory | SITREP-Israel/Grounding-Sources |
Human-readable catalogue. One YAML file per source. |
| Enforced whitelist | agent/sitrep_agent/whitelist.py (in the main site repo) |
What the agent is actually allowed to fetch at runtime. |
The two are deliberately separate: the inventory is the proposal surface, and a maintainer reconciles accepted entries into the enforced whitelist on a cadence.

The propaganda flag marks sources that are state-controlled or state-aligned and routinely publish material intended to shape opinion. It is not a truthfulness judgement — propaganda sources are monitored because adversary framing is itself signal.
