Run from the cloud session under the backlog-sweep lock at the curator's request, covering three groups the curator selected (new pages, source captures, thin-page rebuilds), the Maven placement decision (a government/ program page), and the CDAO merge. Work was split across eight worker lanes; each lane's full report is in Wiki/_meta/queue/gap-scan/backlog-sweep-2026-09-24/. Every rewritten page was backed up to Wiki/_meta/_revision-backups/ with a 2026-09-24 suffix; a scripted check against the 50 backups found no dropped URL or wikilink.
Items already closed before the sweep, by the 2026-09-23 Mac mini ingest-reflect cycle or earlier: the Opus 5.5 system card, both OpenAI governance posts, the UN panel brief, the DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash report, the SB 1119 / AB 1864 placement question (one page per bill), evaluations/tau-bench, models/radar, companies/zerra-dc, all six OpenAI misalignment reports, and the 14 stale June dashboard-rebuild notes.
New pages (16, live)
- People (7): Cameron Stanley, Andy Burnham, Adam Thierer (26 deferrals — closed), Mike Lawler, Patrick Wardle, Bilal Chughtai, Chen Yixin.
- Organizations (8): Data Center Coalition, Tech Oversight Project, Tech Transparency Project, Center for American Progress, Corridor, Bright Data, RUM Group (Rumble Inc. under its June 2026 name), Stream Data Centers.
- Program (1): Project Maven (Algorithmic Warfare Cross-Functional Team) — per the curator's placement decision; 3,236 words, 23 sources, Snapshot of users and contract ceilings; linked from 8 pages.
- All
confidence: medium. About 25 inbound links added on existing pages; all indexed inindex.md.
Pages rebuilt (20, live)
sources/gpt-54-thinking-system-card was skipped: it had already been rebuilt on 2026-09-21 and is proportionate. The four book pages' source_type was corrected from report to book. Word counts are whole-file.
Housekeeping
- CDAO merge.
entities/cdaofolded into Chief Digital and AI Office (CDAO) (leadership history, GenAI.mil and the May 2026 classified-network cohort, Task Force Lima launch date, DDS in the consolidation), the entity page kept as a superseded stub, and 33 links on 22 pages repointed. Douglas Matty's April–December 2025 tenure, missing from both CDAO pages and Radha Plumb, added to both. - Corrections outside the lanes. Kahn v. Anthropic PBC: Monica Vaca and Kati Daffan are plaintiffs' counsel, not plaintiffs; the September 8 filing is the consolidated complaint (ECF 37) after the Kahn–Smith consolidation order (ECF 35); Anthropic moved to dismiss on September 22 (ECF 39). Meta AI: the Muse zero-day patch is now confirmed by Ars Technica's update.
index.mdupdated (16 entries; backup_revision-backups/index__2026-09-24-pre-backlog-sweep.md); retrieval index rebuilt (2,404 rows).
Queued — foundational sources (12 new INGEST tasks, 1 updated)
TC260 AI Safety Governance Framework 1.0 (2024) and 2.0 (2025) (PDFs on cac.gov.cn; TC260's old links redirect); H.R. 10315 AI LABS Act (full text saved); Joe Benton's X post and Substack post (both saved; both dated 2026-09-11, not the 12th); Epoch AI, "The Nvidia-sized hole in US GDP statistics"; Tech Transparency Project CSAM-ads report; Kahn v. Anthropic consolidated complaint (not yet on RECAP; motion to dismiss available); South Korea Criminal Act espionage amendment (gazette PDF); Chen Yixin, China Cyberspace; Round Hill v. Suno complaint; IMF blog of 2026-05-07; Karnofsky, "Some Background on Our Views Regarding Advanced AI" (2016). INGEST-california-data-center-bill-package-2026.md updated in place with the seven bill numbers (Chapters 434–440, to confirm against chaptered text) and the Governor's release saved as a supporting raw. Five supporting-class primary URLs (Life Sciences Verification Program, Helix 2.5, Crusoe Series F, Astra for Law, Muse agent app) recorded in proposed-sources/supporting-captures-2026-09-24.md for the nightly fold. No verification failures.
Still open
- Trump UNGA-81 address. No full White House transcript; the White House release quotes 10 passages only (an excerpt under the protocol). Its wording is "globalist scheme of control"; the vault's earlier record says "to". Curator may accept the release as primary for the AI passage alone.
- Jev. Fails the model-page gate (no card, evaluation or parameter count) —
needs-review/2026-09-24-jev.md. - Candidate captures raised by the lanes: Burnham's 2026-09-22 UN speech (gov.uk); the Robert Work 2017 Project Maven memo; the original Chen Yixin article URL if a primary surfaces; Corporate Europe Observatory's "Bias baked in" (only publisher corroboration so far); re-capturing the full AI Action Plan PDF (the current raw is abridged).
For curator review
- Confidence downgrades. Seven pages lowered from
hightomediumon the CLAUDE.md 3-source rule (four single-source books/filings/reports, the METR risk report, Horvitz–Mitchell, Helen Toner). Primary filings such as the S-1s may warrant an exception. - Stop Rogue AI Act. GPO's introduced print is H.R. 10362 (2026-09-14), Gottheimer for himself and Lawler — resolves the open bill-number and cosponsor questions on Stop Rogue AI Act (2026); the vault's September 3 date looks like the announcement date. Not edited.
- Anthropic compute table. Rum Group row: The Information reported on Sunday 2026-09-13 (not the 14th); warrant is 50,808,408 shares (not "51M"). Not edited.
- Project Maven (Algorithmic Warfare Cross-Functional Team) uses
entity_type: government-program, not in the schema list; NGA handover date (2022 vs January 2023) and program-of-record status are given with attribution. - Retained but unverified text. METR long-tasks page keeps two claims absent from the paper (flagged in-page); Horvitz–Mitchell affiliations; the unsourced Machine, Platform, Crowd reception paragraph (labelled; source or cut); the S-1 portfolio table (column alignment lost in extraction; recheck against EDGAR); CCPA page
date: 2024vs a text with blank effective date and 2027+ deadlines; "amended by the CPRA" not in the raw. - IMF blog characterisation. Several pages say the 2026-05-07 IMF blog "designated" Mythos Preview and GPT-5.5-Cyber as risk vectors; the blog uses Mythos to illustrate risk and presents the restricted GPT-5.5 cyber model as equipping defenders. Flagged in the IMF ingest task for a vault-wide fix.
- Joe Benton. Primaries date both posts 2026-09-11 (18:35 UTC); neither supports the claim that he led Anthropic's scalable-oversight team. Joe Benton not yet corrected — for the ingest of
INGEST-joe-benton-departure-statement-2026.md.
One-line summary
Backlog sweep: 16 pages created, 20 thin pages rebuilt against their sources (with about 20 unsupported or wrong claims removed or corrected on the record), 12 foundational sources queued, the CDAO duplicate merged; the deferred backlog is down to the Trump UNGA text, Jev, and the curator-review list above.
