🎯 Why This Exists

The European Parliament adopts laws that affect 450 million citizens across 27 member states. Yet most of what happens in Brussels and Strasbourg — committee dossiers, rapporteur appointments, coalition trade-offs, amendment battles, urgency files, trilogue dynamics — remains effectively invisible to the public. Press coverage is sparse, fragmented across national outlets, and rarely connects the procedural dots.

EU Parliament Monitor turns the EP's own open data into auditable political intelligence — and publishes it as readable news in 14 languages, every day, fully sourced.

This repository is the open-source platform behind euparliamentmonitor.com: an AI-driven newsroom that monitors plenary sessions, committee work, motions, propositions, and forward-calendar events; produces Economist-style analytical articles backed by 51 structured analysis artifacts per run; and exposes every methodology, template, and analysis tree publicly so any reader, journalist, researcher, or NGO can verify the analysis behind the prose.

Pillar	What it means in this project
🧠 Political Intelligence	Structured analytic techniques (ACH, SWOT/TOWS, PESTLE, scenario forecasting, devil's-advocate), Admiralty source grading, Words of Estimative Probability (WEP) bands, ICD-203 standards, and a 6-dimension political-threat framework — applied daily to live EP data.
🔍 Radical Transparency	Every article links back to the analysis run it was rendered from. Every artifact links to its methodology. Every methodology is published. No black box.
🗳️ Democratic Accountability	Public-data only. GDPR-clean. No personal profiling. Multi-language so a Finnish farmer, a Greek student, and a Polish journalist all get the same intelligence in their own language.
🤖 AI-Generated News	14 unified gh-aw agentic workflows + 1 translation workflow run autonomously, produce structured analysis, render deterministic HTML, and open publication-ready pull requests for human review.

🔒 ISMS Compliance:

🛡️ Hack23 ISMS Framework - Information Security Management System
🔐 Secure Development Policy - Development standards
📋 Classification Framework - CIA triad classification

Current Status

MCP Server Integration: The project uses the European-Parliament-MCP-Server package version v1.4.54 for accessing real EU Parliament data via the Model Context Protocol; the Copilot runner in .github/workflows/copilot-setup-steps.yml currently installs v1.4.54 for the local MCP environment.

MCP Server Status: ✅ Fully operational — 60+ EP data tools available (feeds, direct lookups, analytical tools, intelligence correlation)
Agentic Workflows: 15 unified gh-aw markdown workflows — 14 article types (news-<type>.md, Stages A → B → C → D → E in one session) + news-translate.md (14-language flush translation) — compiled with gh-aw v0.82.3 (pin in .github/workflows/compile-agentic-workflows.yml) to .lock.yml for automated news generation with AI-driven political intelligence analysis. See .github/workflows/README.md.
Toolchain: The build pipeline targets Node.js 26, uses TypeScript 6.0.2 as the default compiler, and keeps a dedicated TypeScript 7.0.1-rc compatibility build via npm run tsc:7.
Analysis-Artifact-Driven Article Pipeline: Agents author the full Stage-B analysis-artifact set (analysis/daily/<date>/<slug>/, 39 structured templates per run; repeat same-day runs reuse the folder and append to manifest.json.history[]) and commit it; the deterministic aggregator (src/aggregator/**, invoked via npm run generate-article -- --run <analysis-run-dir> or npm run generate-article:all for batch regen) then walks manifest.json, cleans each artifact, and emits the final Markdown source + HTML with the shared site chrome (stacked header + embedded 14-language switcher + TOC sidebar + footer stats) and 14-language <link rel="alternate" hreflang> entries. There is no AI-authored HTML step; article quality is guaranteed editorially at the Stage-C completeness review over the artifact markdown. See analysis/README.md and analysis/methodologies/ai-driven-analysis-guide.md.
Fallback Mode: News generation can work with reduced data when EP API endpoints are temporarily unavailable
Environment Variable: Set USE_EP_MCP=false to disable MCP client connection attempts

Code Quality & Testing

EU Parliament Monitor maintains high code quality standards with comprehensive testing:

🧠 The Political Intelligence Pipeline

Every article published on euparliamentmonitor.com is the deterministic render of an analysis run — a directory under analysis/daily/<YYYY-MM-DD>/<article-type>/ containing structured Markdown artifacts (drawn from a 51-template catalog: 39 core mandatory + 12 extended optional) plus raw EP MCP / IMF / World Bank data payloads. The pipeline is split into five well-defined stages:

%%{init: {"theme":"dark","themeVariables":{"primaryColor":"#1565C0","primaryTextColor":"#fff","lineColor":"#90CAF9","fontFamily":"Inter, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"}}}%%

Critical architectural property: AI agents author analysis artifacts in Markdown — never HTML. TypeScript code under src/aggregator/** deterministically renders the committed artifacts into HTML. There is no AI-authored HTML step and no template-prose leakage. This is what makes the public output reproducible, auditable, and resistant to hallucination.

📰 Live News Streams

Fourteen unified gh-aw article workflows plus a 14-language translation helper run on precision schedules, autonomously generating Economist-style political intelligence and opening publication-ready pull requests. Every workflow follows the same Stage A → E contract documented in Article-Generation.md. The single source of truth for every horizon's data window, cadence, mandatory artifacts, stage budgets, scenario depth and electoral overlay is the ARTICLE_HORIZONS registry in src/config/article-horizons.ts.

Workflow	Article Type	Focus
🚨 news-breaking.md	`breaking`	Rapid-response coverage of significant EP developments.
📋 news-week-ahead.md	`week-ahead`	Forward calendar, committee agenda, urgency-file outlook.
🔭 news-month-ahead.md	`month-ahead`	30-day strategic horizon and risk forecast.
🌐 news-quarter-ahead.md	`quarter-ahead`	90-day legislative pipeline forecast + presidency-trio overlay.
🛰️ news-year-ahead.md	`year-ahead`	12-month strategic outlook with seat-projection sensitivity.
🗓️ news-term-outlook.md	`term-outlook`	Full EP-term outlook anchored to the next-EP-election week.
🗳️ news-election-cycle.md	`election-cycle`	EP-election span (±6 mo) — mandate scorecard + seat projection + Spitzenkandidaten arithmetic.
📊 news-week-in-review.md	`week-in-review`	Past-week retrospective intelligence (D-8 → D-36 reporting window).
📈 news-month-in-review.md	`month-in-review`	Monthly retrospective with cross-run continuity analysis.
📚 news-quarter-in-review.md	`quarter-in-review`	Quarterly retrospective with pipeline transit + presidency-trio overlay.
📜 news-year-in-review.md	`year-in-review`	Annual retrospective with mandate-fulfilment + term-arc + historical parallels.
🏛️ news-committee-reports.md	`committee-reports`	Committee activity, rapporteur work, legislative-production analysis.
⚖️ news-motions.md	`motions`	Plenary motions, resolutions, urgency files, political signals.
📜 news-propositions.md	`propositions`	Legislative proposals and pipeline analysis.
🌍 news-translate.md	translation helper	14-language flush translation (manual dispatch only).

Each unified workflow runs Stages A–E in a single 60-minute session (engine.mcp.session-timeout: 65m) and produces exactly one PR containing both the analysis artifacts and the rendered HTML. The earlier split-pair news-<type>-analysis.md + news-<type>-article.md layout was retired in the April-2026 aggregator migration. See .github/workflows/README.md for compile / lock-file / safe-output mechanics, WORKFLOWS.md for the full CI/CD catalog, and Article-Generation.md § Forward-looking horizons & election cycle for the new long-horizon and electoral pipeline.

📚 Prompt Library (.github/prompts/) — 10 bounded-context prompt files (00-scope-and-ground-rules.md → 09-troubleshooting.md) shared across every workflow. The npm run lint:prompts drift-guard fails CI on banned patterns (checkpoint pr, keep-alive, heartbeat, progressive safe output, push_repo_memory).
