list_signals
List every live censorship and information-control signal Palimpsest publishes: name, one-line description and source URL for each — OONI Great Firewall probes, Censored Planet, the Generative Firewall Index over Chinese LLMs, takedown and redaction pressure, and the rest of the board. Takes no argu
get_signal
Read the full latest published reading of one named signal: the raw payload with its generated_at timestamp, method scope and upstream sources, exactly as served on palimpsest.info. Call list_signals first to discover valid names. Distinct from gfw_reading, which merges the two Great Firewall layers
whats_happening
Judge whether anything is happening in Chinese censorship right now, across every signal at once: the board's own cross-signal verdict with the multiplicity paid for (false-discovery control) and coverage confounds flagged as measurement artifacts, never findings. Takes no arguments. Use this instea
