๐Ÿ“Š Project Classification

Riksdagsmonitor follows Hack23 AB's comprehensive Classification Framework for security, business continuity, and impact analysis:

๐ŸŽฏ Project Classification

Project Type Process Type

๐Ÿ”’ Security Classification (CIA Triad)

Confidentiality Integrity Availability

Confidentiality: Public - All information intentionally disclosed (Swedish Riksdag open data, website content)
Integrity: High - Automated validation, digital signatures (Git commits), accurate political data required
Availability: High - 99.998% design availability target (underpinned by AWS CloudFront 99.9% SLA), automated failover (AWS multi-region, GitHub Pages DR)

๐Ÿท๏ธ Privacy Classification

Privacy

Personal Data (Public Officials): This project processes personal data about public officials (e.g., names, roles, voting records, person identifiers) sourced from Swedish Riksdag open data and the Citizen Intelligence Agency (CIA) datasets. Data relates only to MPs and other public figures acting in their official capacity; no special-category data or data about private individuals is processed. GDPR applies, with processing based on public-interest and legitimate-interest grounds for transparency and democratic accountability.

โฑ๏ธ Business Continuity Classification

RTO RPO

RTO (Recovery Time Objective): 1-4 hours - Automated multi-region failover (AWS CloudFront + S3 us-east-1 primary, eu-west-1 replica, GitHub Pages DR)
RPO (Recovery Point Objective): 4-24 hours - Daily data pipeline updates, Git version control, S3 versioning

๐Ÿ’ฐ Business Impact Analysis

Impact Category Level Description
Financial Low Minimal financial impact (<$500 daily) - Open-source project, no revenue dependency
Operational Moderate Partial service impact - Swedish political transparency temporarily unavailable
Reputational Moderate Industry attention - Transparency advocates may notice outage
Regulatory Low No regulatory impact - Public information dissemination only

๐Ÿ“‹ Data Classification Levels

For operational data handling, we use a simplified 4-level scheme:

๐Ÿค– AI-Disrupted News Generation

"While traditional newsrooms debate whether AI will replace journalists, Riksdagsmonitor already runs a fully autonomous political intelligence newsroom โ€” 10 agentic workflows, 14 languages, zero human editors, and a publication schedule that would bankrupt any legacy outlet trying to keep up."

Riksdagsmonitor's agentic news generation pipeline is the world's first fully AI-driven political intelligence newsroom for parliamentary monitoring. Powered by Claude Opus (currently 4.6) via GitHub Copilot Coding Agent, our 10 specialized workflows (9 scheduled + 1 on-demand) autonomously produce deep political analysis โ€” not shallow summaries, but structured intelligence products with source verification, multi-party balance, and GDPR-compliant OSINT methodology.

๐Ÿ“ฐ Autonomous Publication Schedule

Every day, the platform's AI operatives awaken on cron schedules, query the Swedish Parliament's open data via 32 MCP tools, cross-reference government sources, and generate publication-ready intelligence articles in 14 languages โ€” including RTL support for Arabic and Hebrew.

Time (UTC) Workflow Coverage Frequency
๐ŸŒ… 04:00 Committee Reports Utskottsbetรคnkanden analysis, voting breakdowns Monโ€“Fri
๐ŸŒ… 05:00 Propositions Government bills, legislative impact assessment Monโ€“Fri
โ˜€๏ธ 06:00 Motions Opposition proposals, party strategy decoding Monโ€“Fri
โ˜€๏ธ 07:00 Week Ahead Parliamentary calendar preview, agenda intelligence Friday
โ˜€๏ธ 08:00 Month Ahead Strategic outlook, coalition forecasting 1st of month
๐Ÿ” 10:00 & 14:00 (Monโ€“Fri); 12:00 (Sat/Sun) Realtime Monitor Breaking political developments, flash analysis Monโ€“Fri (ร—2) + weekends
๐ŸŒ† 18:00 (16:00 Sat) Evening Analysis Deep-dive intelligence synthesis Monโ€“Sat
๐Ÿ“Š 09:00 Weekly Review Week-in-review scorecard, party performance Saturday
๐Ÿ“ˆ 10:00 Monthly Review Comprehensive monthly intelligence assessment 28th of month
๐Ÿ”ง Manual Article Generator On-demand article generation On-demand

All times are UTC (GitHub Actions cron). For local time, convert to CET/CEST. Authoritative schedules defined in .github/workflows/news-*.lock.yml workflows.

Result: Dozens of articles per week across 14 languages โ€” delivering hundreds of localized intelligence products each month, generated autonomously with zero editorial intervention.

๐Ÿง  Why This Is Different

Traditional AI-generated news is shallow โ€” it rewrites press releases. Riksdagsmonitor's agentic pipeline performs deep political intelligence analysis:

  • ๐Ÿ”Ž Source verification: Every claim traced to official Riksdag/Regering data via MCP
  • โš–๏ธ Multi-party balance: Algorithmic fairness across all 8 parliamentary parties
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Quantitative rigor: Voting cohesion metrics, attendance scoring, legislative productivity indices
  • ๐ŸŒ 14-language reach: Native-quality political analysis โ€” not machine translation, but culturally adapted intelligence
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ GDPR-compliant OSINT: Only public parliamentary data, with privacy-by-design architecture
  • ๐Ÿงช Quality gates: HTMLHint validation, link checking, accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1 AA) โ€” every article passes CI before publication

๐Ÿ”ฎ Future Roadmap: 2026โ€“2037

Phase 6: AGI Era & Transformative Democracy (2034โ€“2037)

When AGI or near-AGI systems emerge, Riksdagsmonitor's modular architecture is designed with flexibility to adapt to future AI paradigm shifts โ€” including potential AGI capabilities โ€” while maintaining democratic safeguards.

Strategic Considerations for Phase 6:

  • ๐Ÿค– Autonomous analysis: AGI-powered real-time political intelligence across all 195 parliamentary systems
  • ๐ŸŒ Universal language support: Every UN language supported natively
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Predictive governance: Policy impact prediction before legislation is proposed
  • โš–๏ธ Ethical AI governance: Human oversight maintained regardless of AI capability level
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Democratic safeguards: Platform architecture prevents weaponization or manipulation

๐Ÿ“ˆ AI Model Evolution Strategy

Illustrative assumptions (high uncertainty โ€” AI landscape evolves rapidly):

  • Model updates assumed roughly quarterly; actual cadence will vary by vendor and paradigm
  • Version numbers (Opus 5.xโ€“12.x) are illustrative โ€” actual products may differ significantly
  • Competitors (OpenAI, Google, Meta, EU sovereign AI) evaluated at each major release cycle
  • Architecture must accommodate potential paradigm shifts (quantum AI, neuromorphic computing, or entirely new approaches)
