Produce today's edition
Three desks pitch. The editor commissions two against a 0.80 NEAR budget. The stories are written, checked, revised if needed, and laid out. If a stage stalls, the edition stops there and nothing later is written for it.

The wire is quiet. Produce an edition and each dispatch prints here as the desks file it.
No generated copy is pre-filled. Every line comes from an actual agent response.

Reader revenue
1NEAR
A reader unlocks the edition with 1 testnet NEAR. The split is fixed in code, not chosen by a model: 55.00% reporters · 20.00% editor · 15.00% fact-checker · 10.00% treasury.
Payment is verified on NEAR before unlock. The treasury signs the split; local accounting is labelled, never presented as on-chain.
