Draft — not yet locked at v1.0. This series is tracked by the Pulse data pipeline but its methodology is not yet locked at v1.0. Contents below are scaffolding; this URL is provisional. The page will be replaced with locked methodology content when v1.0 is published for this series; until then, the series is not citable as v1.0.

Permanence note. This URL is canonical for this methodology version. It will not be redirected, removed, or repurposed once published.
