EARLY-SENTINEL — open-source conflict early-warning agent

Problem: In October 1962, Kennedy's team worked from slow, fragmentary intelligence while the clock ran. Modern conflicts still escalate faster than analyst teams can fuse public signals — news flows, commodity price spikes, troop-movement reporting, and shifts in diplomatic language each get watched in separate stovepipes, and the pattern only becomes obvious in hindsight. Idea: Add an Orchestrate agent that continuously ingests public news, commodity prices, open troop-movement reporting, and diplomatic-language shifts to produce conflict-escalation risk scores weeks before violence — strictly defensive and informational, with no targeting function and full sourcing on every score so analysts can audit the reasoning. Value: Weeks of warning instead of days of surprise. Humanitarian agencies, journalists, and policymakers get lead time to act while options are still open.
