Review & Data Use

This page describes the Review & Data Use model, defining User roles and how review actions are logged.

1. User & Role Concepts

• USER: Base entity for all users (human or technical).
• TECHNICAL_USER: Strictly technical identities (services, federation components, background jobs).
• CONTRIBUTING_USER: Users that can contribute content (claims, scenarios, evidence).
  • TRUSTED_CONTRIBUTOR: Additional trust / certification properties.
  • REVIEWER: Can perform review actions on versioned entities.
  • EXPERT: Reviewer with domain‑specific expertise / higher authority.

• FEDERATION_NODE: Technical entity representing a participating node in the federation.
• FEDERATION_ADMIN: Administers one or more federation nodes; not necessarily a content contributor.

2. Review Actions

The system logs every significant action:

• REVIEW_ACTION logs *who* did *what* on *which* versioned entity.
• Fields: ``ReviewActionID``, ``UserID``, ``EntityType``, ``EntityVersionID``, ``ActionType``, ``Timestamp``.
• Each entry targets a specific VERSIONED entity (e.g., ClaimVersion, ScenarioVersion).
• Claim Clusters may also be targets of review actions (e.g., curation or moderation).

Simplified flat role structure:

• Reader: Default role, no login required
• Contributor: Registers and earns reputation through contributions
• Trusted Contributor: substantial reputation unlocks additional permissions
• Moderator: Appointed by Governing Team, handles abuse/disputes
  No hierarchy - roles represent responsibility levels, not management structure.

Implementation Status

Current Implementation

v2.6.33 has only:

• AKEL pipeline for analysis
• .NET API for job persistence
• No background services
• No search indexing (uses web search only)

Role Permissions

Current Implementation

• All users are anonymous Readers (no authentication system yet)
• UCM config management via CLI/direct DB access
• No moderator tooling
• No rate limiting (single-user development mode)

Design Principles

• No data editing roles — analysis outputs are immutable
• UCM Administrator improves the system through configuration, not by editing individual outputs
• Submission requires login — LLM inference and web search are not free; rate limits control costs
• Four roles: Reader (guest), User (registered), UCM Administrator (appointed), Moderator (appointed)
