How external information enters NeuralWikis as quarantined source material before any trust decision.
Source intake starts in quarantine. Sources are never trusted by default, private or confidential material must not be exposed to public routes, and high-entropy or contradictory material remains isolated.
Claims require evidence paths, scope labels, provenance, source confidence, and UTC timestamp metadata. DLP and scope boundaries must be checked before public-safe summaries or packet references appear.
Stale claims need supersession review. Replacement paths, contradiction markers, and last-reviewed UTC timestamps make the knowledge base compound instead of bloat.
Public source-intake views are read-only. Source promotion, private ingestion, durable mutation, DB schema changes, adoption approval, and rollback execution remain protected operator workflows.
