Glossary

​

Aggregate Window

A fixed UTC interval summarized as one Generated Aggregate Narrative Summary.

​

Asset Focus

The assets most represented in a trader’s selected position sample.

​

Direction Bias

The long/short/neutral balance of positions in the selected context.

​

Eligible Signed-up User

A Centaur user whose account is active and email-verified. This is the current eligibility rule for Centaur MCP OAuth and self-serve API key management.

​

Generated Aggregate Narrative Summary

A generated cross-source market narrative summary for one Aggregate Window. It exposes coverage counts, not source trader or channel identities.

​

Generated Channel Narrative Summary

A generated narrative summary for one trader/channel Source Window. Public reads expose traderId for continuity but not channel identity or raw source material.

​

Ingestion Watermark

The change-feed position used by the partner feed’s since polling mode. It tracks newly visible event-log rows, not message post time, so a newly ingested retrospective event can make an older source-message group reappear. Persist the newest non-null nextCursor from every successful poll, including empty polls, so the watermark advances through quiet periods.

​

Low-Signal Summary

A generated narrative summary whose source window has little or no useful trading insight. It is a successful generated output, not a failure.

​

Open Position

A position with no captured close in the current public read model. Open-position reads expose current mark-to-market state when pricing is available.

​

Open-position Skew

The directional balance of currently open long and short positions for a trader or asset context.

​

Partner Feed

The curated read surface at GET /api/v1/feed and list_feed, gated by feed.read. It returns presentation-ready source-message groups with server-curated events, cursor scroll-back pagination, and since change polling with whole-group upsert semantics.

​

Position

A grouped trade record made from related open, increase, decrease, and close events.

​

Position History Read

A read of open and closed positions selected by position open time. It includes 1D, 7D, and 30D time-based performance where available.

​

Source Message ID

The stable opaque public handle for a source message. Event rows can reference it with messageId; message reads can hydrate it with ids. Platform source IDs and platform message IDs are source metadata, not public message identity.

​

Source Identity

The source account or channel that produced source material. Public message reads expose it under source.identity with platform, handle, display name, profile URL, avatar URL, and audience count when available.

​

Source Preview

The display-ready source-message payload under source.preview. It includes message time, source URL, sanitized text, attachments, and platform-specific flags when available.

​

Source Window

A fixed message-time interval summarized as one Generated Channel Narrative Summary.

​

Time-Based Performance

Performance measured at a fixed window after position entry, such as 1D, 7D, or 30D.

​

Trade Event

A structured action in a position lifecycle: open, increase, decrease, or close.

​

Trade Sample Window

The sample of position opens included in a product or stats query, such as 30d, all-time, custom bounds, or API startTime/endTime.
