Monitor Time-Bar Tickers in Daily Triage
In your Triage Inbox (/dashboard/triage), delay signals extracted from daily logs or meeting minutes display a live contractual countdown clock:

Generate Formal Statutory Notice Letters
When a signal is selected, click Generate Statutory Notice:
- The engine formats a formal letter addressed to the Engineer / Employer.
- Cites the governing contract clause (e.g. FIDIC 2017 Sub-Clause 20.2.1).
- Includes contemporaneous event quotes, affected CPM Activity IDs, and initial duration estimates.
- Appends a standard contractual reservation of rights for time and prolongation costs.
