Why our revision loop stops at two
Our translation pipeline scores every draft and revises the ones that fall short. The loop is capped at two passes. The cap is not a compromise, it is the design.
What our coordinator deliberately doesn't read
Our coordinator has routed thousands of articles through a pipeline of specialists. It has never read one. A score, a status, and a key turn out to be enough.

Our article queue is a Google Sheet. The first operation is claiming a row, not picking one. The order keeps two orchestrators from doing the same job twice.
