The seed pack

seed/school-transport/ is one public issue, "Rural school bus withdrawal", with the sources, evidence, questions and claims a reviewer would have curated, and synthetic participants for the representative's dashboard. Every source is fictional, written for the pack, labelled "(illustrative)" and carrying its licence and attribution; the pack's own text is licensed in licences/.

The conflicting pair: the council's route review says Route 14 carried eleven pupils a day; the parents' survey says twenty-three. Both are accepted evidence on the hypothesis "The route was withdrawn because too few pupils used it", one supporting and one contradicting it. The correction: one piece of evidence is the route review's corrected count, which the seed proposes and leaves as a candidate, so a reviewer can accept it and supersede the first count with it. The second question, about the ring road works, has no evidence, so Voice abstains.

Identifiers follow Voice's scheme for the reasoning service: voice.<issue>.q<n> for questions, voice.src.<slug> for sources, voice.<issue>.c<n> for claims.

The seed client loads the pack through Voice's staff routes as a reviewer, and Voice writes to the reasoning service: the same path a reviewer's curation takes, so nothing reaches reasoning that Voice did not decide. Every write is idempotent, so loading twice changes nothing. Set SEED_ISSUE to an issue id to add the pack's material to an existing issue instead of opening a new one.

Replay the participants

With SEED_INVITE set to one of the pilot's invite codes, just seed also replays participants.json through the citizen routes: each synthetic participant starts a session, holds its conversation, confirms, shares in its mode, expresses its priority and trade-offs, and follows the issue. This needs the model, because every turn calls it, so it runs only with ANTHROPIC_API_KEY set. Afterwards the representative's dashboard and the public aggregate have enough participants to show a cell or two over the suppression threshold.
