gauge

[SIGNAL+PROOF] One official signal record for any signal_id and entity: current reading against the OFFICIAL threshold ladder (band, distance-to-action) plus a 5-year same-season percentile so you can tell routine from unusual. 180+ signals across macro, weather, hazard, shipping, filings, crypto and lifecycle lines. Free coverage check first at /gauge/coverage. Descriptive only, never a forecast or advice. No data -> 422 no_charge, not billed.
