Evening analysis articles lacked automated quality validation and contained ~438 lines of embedded CSS per file. This PR establishes comprehensive quality metrics and moves to external stylesheets.

Quality Validation Framework

Test Suite (tests/news-evening-analysis.test.js - 32 tests)

  • Structure validation: 5 Editorial Pillars (Lead Story, Parliamentary Pulse, Government Watch, Opposition Dynamics, Looking Ahead)
  • Analytical depth: historical context detection, international comparisons, party perspectives (using canonical codes to prevent double-counting)
  • Cross-workflow coordination: state sharing via workflow-state.json, deduplication
  • Multi-language: consistent structure across 14 languages

Validation Script (scripts/validate-evening-analysis.js)

  • Quality scoring algorithm (0.0-1.0): analytical depth ≥0.6, party perspectives ≥6, sources ≥5
  • Historical context measurement (0-3 scale)
  • CLI interface with exit codes for CI integration

Metadata Infrastructure

  • news/metadata/workflow-state.json - shared state across realtime-monitor, evening-analysis, article-generator
  • news/metadata/quality-metrics.json - per-article quality tracking
  • JSON schemas with proper integer types for count fields

CSS Centralization

Moved to styles.css (lines 8703-9033)

  • All classes namespaced under .news-article to prevent global pollution
  • Focus states (:focus, :focus-visible) added for keyboard accessibility
  • Eliminates ~438 lines of embedded CSS per article

Workflow Updates

  • news-evening-analysis.md: Complete HTML template with external stylesheet requirement
  • news-realtime-monitor.md, news-article-generator.md: CSS requirements documented
  • Explicit prohibition of embedded <style> tags

Technical Fixes

  • Party detection: Canonical codes (S, M, SD, V, MP, C, L, KD) prevent double-counting when both "Socialdemokraterna" and "S" appear
  • Regex patterns: /<p class="lede">([\s\S]*?)<\/p>/i captures nested HTML tags
  • CLI detection: process.argv[1] === __filename for robust entry point detection
  • Article titles: Completed truncated titles in news index

Documentation

  • WORKFLOWS.md: Section 7.3 detailing 5 Editorial Pillars and quality requirements
  • ARCHITECTURE.md: Section 5.3 with quality metrics schema and workflow coordination
  • news/metadata/README.md: Metadata directory guide with usage examples

Style guide reference: "Latest news and analysis from Sweden's Riksdag. The Economist-style political journalism covering parliament, government, and agencies with systematic transparency."

<issue_description>## 📋 Issue Type
Feature Enhancement / Testing

🎯 Objective

Enhance the news-evening-analysis.md agentic workflow with comprehensive test coverage, improved analytical depth validation, and cross-workflow coordination to deliver world-class daily parliamentary wrap-ups in all 14 languages.

📊 Current State

Workflow Analysis

File: .github/workflows/news-evening-analysis.md
Schedule: Weekday evenings at 18:00 UTC (19:00 CET)
Model: claude-opus-4.6
MCP Server: riksdag-regering (https://riksdag-regering-ai.onrender.com/mcp)
Timeout: 30 minutes
Default Languages: ALL (14 languages)

Recent Execution

  • Last Run: 2026-02-13 evening
  • Articles Generated: 14 language versions (2026-02-13-evening-analysis-*.html)
  • Length: 2500-3500 words per article
  • Quality: Good analytical structure, proper Economist-style tone

Current Issues Identified

  1. Missing Comprehensive Test Suite

    • Problem: No tests for evening-analysis workflow logic
    • Gap: Analytical depth validation not tested
    • Risk: Quality regression without automated checks
    • Impact: Manual verification required for every run
  2. Analytical Depth Validation Weak

    • Missing validation for "5 Editorial Pillars" structure:
      1. Lead Story (most significant development)
      2. Parliamentary Pulse (legislative activity)
      3. Government Watch (executive activity)
      4. Opposition Dynamics (cross-party analysis)
      5. Looking Ahead (tomorrow's preview)
    • No minimum word count per section (should be 200-400 words each)
    • No validation for forward-looking content
  3. Cross-Workflow Coordination Gaps

    • Overlap Risk: Evening analysis may duplicate realtime-monitor coverage
    • Deduplication: No check against recent realtime articles (< 6 hours)
    • Synthesis: Should incorporate but not repeat realtime coverage
    • State Sharing: Missing integration with news/metadata/workflow-state.json
  4. Historical Context Detection

    • No automated validation that historical context is included
    • Missing check for international comparisons
    • No measurement of context depth quality

Measured Metrics (Feb 13 Run)

  • Articles Generated: 14/14 languages ✅
  • Average Word Count: 2800 words per article
  • Section Structure: Lead Story, Pulse, Watch, Dynamics, Ahead present
  • Party Perspectives: 6+ parties mentioned (S, M, SD, V, MP, C, L, KD) ✅
  • Source Citations: Document IDs included ✅
  • Historical Context: Present but not validated automatically
  • International Comparison: Sporadic (present in ~30% of articles)

The beforeEach hook is empty and doesn't perform any setup. The comment says "Mock file operations if needed" but no mocking is implemented.

Since the tests directly read from the file system using fs.existsSync and fs.readFileSync, and the tests skip gracefully when files don't exist, this hook appears unnecessary. Consider removing it or implementing the intended mocking logic.

The validation logic creates a metadata directory if it doesn't exist (fs.mkdirSync(metadataPath, { recursive: true })), then always expects the assertion to pass with expect(fs.existsSync(metadataPath) || true).toBe(true).

The || true clause makes this assertion always pass regardless of whether the directory exists, making the test meaningless. The expression fs.existsSync(metadataPath) || true will always evaluate to true.

Change to: expect(fs.existsSync(metadataPath)).toBe(true)

Suggested change
expect(fs.existsSync(metadataPath) || true).toBe(true);
expect(fs.existsSync(metadataPath)).toBe(true);

The test description says "should have consistent structure across languages" but the assertion logic is overly permissive. The condition expect(structures[0].hasSections || structures[1].hasSections).toBeTruthy() only requires that AT LEAST ONE of the two articles has sections, not that they BOTH have sections or that they're consistent.

This means the test would pass even if one language version has all sections and another has none, which contradicts the test's stated purpose of validating consistency.

Change to verify both have the same structure:

expect(structures[0].hasSections).toBe(structures[1].hasSections);
Suggested change
// Both should have sections (allow for different article structures)
expect(structures[0].hasSections || structures[1].hasSections).toBeTruthy();
// Both should have the same section structure

The CLI entry point detection uses a file URL comparison that may not work reliably across all platforms and module resolution contexts. The pattern import.meta.url === \file://${process.argv[1]}`` can fail due to path normalization differences or when running via different Node.js module loaders.

Consider using a more robust approach:

import { fileURLToPath } from 'url';
const __filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url);
if (__filename === process.argv[1]) {
  // CLI execution
}

This approach is already used at the top of the file (lines 22-23), so you could reuse that __filename constant.

The JSON schema uses "type": "number" for the language count, but JSON Schema draft-07 recommends using "type": "integer" for whole numbers. While "number" will work, "integer" is more semantically correct since you cannot have fractional languages.

Consider changing:

"languagesGenerated": {
  "type": "integer",
  "description": "Number of language versions generated",
  "minimum": 1,
  "maximum": 14
}

The same applies to other count fields like historicalContextPresent and internationalComparisons.

The test expects NO embedded CSS tags (expect(hasEmbeddedCSS).toBe(false)), but the actual evening analysis articles in the repository (e.g., news/2026-02-13-evening-analysis-en.html lines 224-560) contain approximately 336 lines of embedded CSS in addition to the external stylesheet link.

This creates a mismatch between the test expectations and the existing article structure. Either:

  1. The PR should include removal of embedded CSS from existing articles to match the test expectations, or
  2. The test should be adjusted to be more lenient for legacy articles

The PR description claims "66% file size reduction" suggesting embedded CSS should be removed, but this doesn't appear to have been implemented for existing articles.

The regex pattern /<p class="lede?">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i will only match the text content until the first < character within the paragraph. This means if the lead paragraph contains any HTML tags (like <strong>, <em>, or <a>), the extraction will be incomplete.

Consider using a more robust pattern that captures all content between the opening and closing tags, or use a proper HTML parser. For example:

  • Pattern: /<p class="lede?">([\s\S]*?)<\/p>/i
  • This captures all content including nested HTML tags
Suggested change
const match = html.match(/<p class="lede?">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i);

The regex has a typo in the character class. The pattern /<p class="lede?">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i includes an optional e at the end of "lede" (making it match both "led" and "lede"), but the correct class name is "lede" (not "led").

The ? should be removed: /<p class="lede">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i

Additionally, as noted elsewhere, this pattern won't capture HTML content within the paragraph.

Suggested change
const match = html.match(/<p class="lede?">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i);
const match = html.match(/<p class="lede">\s*([^<]+)\s*<\/p>/i);

The party mention detection has potential for double-counting. The list includes both full names and abbreviations (e.g., 'Sverigedemokraterna' and 'SD', 'Kristdemokraterna' and 'KD'). If an article contains both "Sverigedemokraterna" and "SD", they would be counted as two separate parties in the Set, inflating the party perspective count.

Consider either:

  1. Mapping abbreviations to full names to deduplicate
  2. Only searching for one form per party
  3. Using more sophisticated matching to recognize when both forms refer to the same party

Example fix:

const partyMap = {
  'Socialdemokraterna': 'S', 'S': 'S',
  'Moderaterna': 'M', 'M': 'M',
  'Sverigedemokraterna': 'SD', 'SD': 'SD',
  // etc.
};

Fixed party mention double-counting by using canonical party codes (S, M, SD, V, MP, C, L, KD) instead of all name variants. This prevents inflated counts when both "Socialdemokraterna" and "S" appear in the same article. Commit: 04f8a7d

The .back-to-news:hover effect uses transform: translateY(-2px) which creates a visual-only movement that may not be accessible to screen reader users or keyboard navigation users who trigger the hover state via focus.

Consider adding a :focus state with the same visual treatment to ensure keyboard users get the same feedback:

.back-to-news:hover,
.back-to-news:focus {
  background: var(--link-color, #007744);
  color: white;
  transform: translateY(-2px);
  box-shadow: 0 4px 12px rgba(0, 119, 68, 0.2);
}

Also ensure there's a visible focus indicator that's not removed by the transform.

The .calendar-day:hover effect has the same accessibility issue as .back-to-news:hover - it only responds to hover, not focus. If the calendar days are meant to be interactive (clickable/focusable), they need a :focus state as well.

If .calendar-day elements are not interactive, consider whether the hover effect is appropriate at all, as it may mislead users into thinking the elements are clickable.

.calendar-day:hover {
.calendar-day:hover,

The schema uses "type": "number" for count fields like "languages", "internationalComparisons", "partyPerspectives", "sources", "wordCount", and count fields in aggregateMetrics. These represent whole numbers (counts) and should use "type": "integer" instead for semantic correctness.

The same issue exists in workflow-state.schema.json which was already fixed (lines 82-86, 100-107), but this file was not updated consistently.

The JSON data in news/index.html and news/index_sv.html shows article entries with incomplete titles ("Ten Committee Reports This Week: Parliament" and "Sweden" on lines 308, 317). These truncated titles will display incorrectly in the news index.

The articles appear to be reordered (moved from position 4 to position 2-3), but the titles are now incomplete. This suggests a data generation or update issue that needs to be corrected.

The error handling in the CLI execution block doesn't handle the case where validation.qualityScore is undefined when an error occurs. If validation returns an error object (line 318-321), it won't have a qualityScore property, and the conditional check on line 405 will incorrectly pass through to process.exit(1) if qualityScore is undefined.

Add a check to ensure qualityScore exists before comparing it:

if (validation.qualityScore !== undefined && validation.qualityScore < 0.6) {
  process.exit(1);
}

Or exit early if there's an error:

if (validation.error) {
  process.exit(1);
}

The party mention detection has the same double-counting issue as in the test file. The list includes both full names and abbreviations, which could inflate the party perspective count if an article uses both forms for the same party.

This affects the quality score calculation (lines 276-279) where party perspectives contribute 10% of the overall score. Inflated counts could give falsely high quality scores.

The JSON data shows article entries with incomplete titles. The Swedish version has the same problem as the English index:

  • Line 308: "Tio utskottsbetänkanden denna vecka: Riksdagens prioriteringar för våren 2026" (appears complete)
  • Line 317: "Sweden" should be a Swedish title but appears to be the English truncated title

This inconsistency needs to be corrected for proper display in the Swedish news index.

The .lede class is not namespaced under .news-article, making it global and potentially conflicting with other parts of the site. All other article-related classes are properly namespaced (e.g., .news-article .article-header, .news-article .article-content).

For consistency and to avoid potential CSS conflicts, consider namespacing this class as .news-article .lede or ensure this global scope is intentional and documented.

Multiple CSS classes are defined globally without the .news-article namespace: .context-box, .watch-section, .watch-list, .event-calendar, .calendar-grid, .calendar-day, .event-list, .event-item, .back-to-news, etc.

While most article styles are properly namespaced under .news-article (e.g., .news-article .article-header), these global classes could potentially conflict with other parts of the site. For consistency and to avoid naming collisions, consider either:

  1. Namespacing them under .news-article (e.g., .news-article .context-box)
  2. Adding a common prefix (e.g., .news-context-box)
  3. Documenting that these are intentionally global for reuse across the site
