Monitor workflow · Communications

Labor-dispute reputation watch

Notify communications when a confirmed company or subsidiary entity receives new labor-dispute coverage.

criteria.search is semantic content matching; company names are resolved separately to terminal entity IDs. A coverage match does not prove the company caused, led, or was materially affected by the dispute. The Monitor does not score sentiment; tone and Share of Voice are separate QU-backed follow-up calls. volume_spike is deferred; the public trigger is new_matches.

After the notification

Scheduled checks cost 0 QU. Investigation and application calls use QU.

Execute the run replay_requests and read Story evidence and source URLs.

Call the entity tone endpoint for the confirmed company IDs and relevant time window.

Call /api/v2/share-of-voice for parent/competitor comparison using the same labor-dispute topic.
