The touch matrix in long form: one row for every published signal that bears on every claim it touches, with the direction of the touch. The dataset for direction-balance questions.
Pivot claim_code against direction to see the support and contradiction balance per claim. Only published signals are included. Draft and archived work never enters a dataset. Direction comes from the evidence row the publish gate materialized; a blank direction means the touch predates direction tracking.
