Early Signals is a field note for analysts: it takes visible agenda-setting journalism and asks what GDELT Cloud had already structured as Events and Stories. The point is not to predict the article; it is to show why agent access to coded event data, actors, places, and evidence links matters for geopolitical and macro workflows.
Same incident coded first: an automated judge found the article's incident among Events GDELT Cloud had coded before the article's publication time. Precursor Events (a different, earlier incident pointing the same way) are secondary: 3 / 10.
