- Expand SUPPRESSED_TRENDING_TERMS from 13 to ~170 entries to filter
common English words (department, state, news, etc.) from intelligence
findings
- Move sidecar admin endpoints (debug-toggle, traffic-log, env-update,
local-status) before LOCAL_API_TOKEN auth gate — settings window sends
bare fetch without token, causing silent 401 failures
- Restore Market Radar and Economic Indicators panels to tech variant
- Remove stale Documentation section from README
- Clean up .env.example cyber threat keys (handled internally)
- Bump v2.2.6
Update README with 5 new How It Works sections and 10 inline updates
reflecting implemented features. Data layer count 29→30+, data sources
14→22, new Tech Stack and Roadmap entries.
Plot live botnet C2 servers, malware distribution nodes, and malicious IPs
on the globe using free abuse.ch APIs (Feodo Tracker + URLhaus).
- Vercel edge API with triple-layer caching (Redis → memory → stale fallback)
- IP geolocation via ipwho.is + ipapi.co (HTTPS-compatible with Edge runtime)
- Severity-based color coding (critical=red, high=orange, medium=amber, low=yellow)
- Feature-gated behind VITE_ENABLE_CYBER_LAYER=true env var
- Frontend circuit breaker, data sanitization, 10min auto-refresh
- Tauri desktop support: 3 new secret keys (URLHAUS, OTX, AbuseIPDB)
- Full test suite (6 unit tests), e2e harness updates, popup + tooltip rendering
Shield.io badges for Windows, macOS ARM, and macOS Intel desktop downloads
pointing to the new /api/download redirect. Web app links restyled as badges.
- Rename variant default from 'world' to 'full' across config files
- Replace all startups.worldmonitor.app references with tech.worldmonitor.app
- Add CARTO basemap tile caching to Workbox runtime config (basemaps.cartocdn.com)
Explains that `vercel dev` is needed instead of `npm run dev` for
the API edge functions to work. Covers three deployment options
(Vercel, local with CLI, static frontend only) and platform notes
for Raspberry Pi/ARM users. Addresses #44.

The original documentation incorrectly described surge detection as
operator-count based. The actual algorithm uses:
- Baseline-based detection (2x historical activity = surge)
- Separate foreign presence detection for operators outside home regions
- Theater-based grouping with 48-hour baseline window
- Update version badge to 1.5.0
- Document CII Learning Mode (15-minute warmup with visual indicators)
- Add Entity Extraction System section (company/country/leader detection)
- Add Signal Context section ("Why It Matters" explanations)
- Expand Data Freshness with core vs optional sources
- Document Live News Stream optimizations (YouTube Player API, idle detection)
- Entity knowledge base with 45+ entities (companies, commodities, crypto, countries, people)
- Entity index for O(1) lookups by alias, keyword, sector, type
- News-to-entity matching for intelligent market-news correlation
- New signal type: explained_market_move (when news correlates with price action)
- Improved silent_divergence (only fires after exhaustive entity search)
- Per-signal-type TTL deduplication (6hr for market signals vs 30min default)
- README documentation for all new features and algorithms
- Add 'oil' and 'spending' as separate DataSourceIds in data-freshness
- Update oil-analytics.ts to report to 'oil' source
