Audits WorldMonitor's current ME source coverage (src/config/feeds.ts, 523
feeds) against an external reference-class ME conflict monitor with 152
declared sources across 10 regions.
Headline findings:
- Zero direct RSS from any GCC state wire (WAM, SPA, QNA, KUNA, BNA).
- Zero direct Iranian state-media feeds (IRNA, Tasnim, Mehr, ISNA,
Tehran Times, Press TV, Khamenei EN).
- Zero direct Israeli domestic-press feeds (Times of Israel, Jerusalem
Post, Ynet, i24, Globes, IDF Spokesperson, PMO, MoFA, Knesset) —
only Haaretz via a Google News wrapper.
- Zero direct Gulf Arabic dailies across all six GCC states.
- US Gov coverage is coarse Google News wrappers; granular per-agency
feeds (White House sub-feeds, State Dept Near East Bureau, CENTCOM,
Travel Advisories) are available and missing.
- NOTAM coverage is FAA-only; civil aviation authorities in the ME
region are not represented.
Plan scopes eight priority buckets and proposes eight separate follow-up
PRs so each batch stays small, testable, and independently revertable.
The external reference URL is stashed privately in docs/internal/ per
the no-competitive-disclosure rule and is not referenced in this plan or
commit.
Implementation-neutral: this PR ships the inventory only. Each follow-up
PR will verify its own feed URLs + handle geo/UA blocks + write tests.
Gates: md lint clean (48 files), typecheck clean (src + api), version
sync OK.
