Runs allegations from assessment to inquiry and investigation, for research integrity officers
Seven agents do the clerical and forensic work of a research misconduct proceeding. An Intake agent tests each allegation against the definition, federal support and the six-year limit; a Clock agent computes every deadline from the receipt date and drafts extensions before they are needed; a Custody agent hashes every sequestered digital item and re-checks it each night, while an Evidence agent compares each live source with its sequestration manifest and builds a chronology that keeps facts apart from allegations. A Notice agent drafts each required notice, an Interview agent transcribes and proposes questions from the evidence, and a Record agent keeps the institutional record as one index. The Research Integrity Officer administers, counsel checks every notice, the committee makes the findings and the Deciding Official decides; the agents never characterize intent.
