Update 2026-10-10
Additive merge: 1 new instruments (0 new article rows) from the official-source local corpus (scrapers/collect_ug.py); all 126 previously published instrument rows and 7166 article rows are carried verbatim (no removals; merge is by instrument id with URL/text de-duplication). Quality gate dropped non-legislative / garbled / duplicate local files (see MANIFEST). Instruments with no source article split were split on language-specific article headings (backend article_repair_aae).
