```bash
export COMPETITOR_QUERY='agent automation platform pricing launch'
export LOOKBACK_DAYS='7'
export MAX_SIGNALS='40'

## Smoke Test

- Run once and verify grouped themes include source links and timestamps.
- Confirm low-confidence rumors are separated from high-confidence updates.

## KPI

- Time from market signal to internal response
- False-positive signal rate
- Strategic actions generated per report

## Security Notes

- Use public-source evidence only unless explicitly authorized.
- Keep response planning internal.

## Rollback

```bash
openclaw cron delete <job-id>
```
