Census
Who talked. Who assigned. What aim cluster formed.
Census is the graph of the collective. Not a chat export. A picture of participation, coordination, and aims, with every claim pointing at spans in the latched transcript.
What census is for
Oversight that tours individual transcripts never becomes a picture of the swarm. Coordinators emerge. Workstreams form. A founder hands off because its budget is dying. A fresh agent with a larger budget becomes the boss. Shared aims are real even when individual motives vary.
Census is that picture. It sits on the latched record. Without Channel and Transcript, census is a story about a spoofable board.
What it produces
Who talked
Nodes and edges from the allowlisted bus. Volume is not the score. Presence in the graph is.
Who assigned
Handoffs, recruitment, coordinator isolation. The unit of optimization has moved when a local task is abandoned for the hive.
What clustered
Aim clusters cited back to raw spans. A human can open the span and disagree. The analysis agent does not get the last word.
Sibling practice
Census maps. Review reconstructs. Latch holds.
HiveNosis Review is the forensic line: post-incident reconstruction with checkable claims. Census is the live and replay graph that Review reads. SwarmLatch is the runtime that makes both possible.
Do not mix the verbs. You diagnose hivenosis. You latch the swarm. You census the graph.
