Court Engine Architecture
The target shape of Heliaia, the backend-owned engine that turns a market question into a compact evidence plan, argument graph, verdict, and receipt trail.
Core question
Each hearing should clarify resolution criteria, timing, direct evidence, Yes paths, No blockers, market signal quality, and the probability range justified by the evidence.
Engine layers
Case intake feeds a forecast frame, evidence plan, retrieval layer, evidence ledger, testimony, argument graph, debate controller, calibration judge, and verdict record.
Design goal
The court format should serve the forecast, not bury it. Agents should cite ledger evidence instead of repeating raw tool dumps.
