name	normalize-gdelt-doc-public-signals
description	Normalize fetch-gdelt-doc-search article results into unified public signals and write them into the signal plane database. Use when investigators need canonical public-signal rows, artifact refs, provenance, source quality flags, and coverage limitations for article-like GDELT discovery output.

Eco Normalize GDELT Doc Public Signals

Core Goal

• Read one fetch-gdelt-doc-search raw artifact.
• Convert article-like results into canonical public signals.
• Write artifact, ingest-batch, and signal rows into the unified signal plane.
• Return compact summary, receipt id, batch id, artifact refs, signal ids, and query-oriented handoff.

Triggering Conditions

• A fetch step already produced a GDELT doc artifact.
• The council needs article-level public signals instead of raw search payloads.
• Investigator query, finding, and evidence-bundle work should operate from the unified signal plane rather than files.

Read/Write Contract

• Reads one raw artifact from disk.
• Writes to signal_artifacts, signal_ingest_batches, and normalized_signals in runs/<run_id>/analytics/signal_plane.sqlite.
• Does not generate claim candidates directly.

Required Input
