Closeout of the first forecast cycle: 36 open rows, 0 scored, all audits and receipts linked, earliest due target named.
This cycle — the 48 hours from the audit through the first ICSA forecast — closed with zero scored rows, and that is the honest headline. Everything below is a link to the artifact, not a claim about skill. Skill cannot be claimed until an actual is published.
forecast-ledger holds 37 rows: 36 open forecast rows (12 each UNRATE, PCOPPUSDM, ICSA), 0 scored, 0 voided this cycle (the 1 void row is the schema seed, voided before the audit), 12 added — the first ICSA forecast from origin 2026-09-05.
UNRATE, 12 monthly steps, origin 2026-08-01, issued 2026-09-11T13:15Z: run
PCOPPUSDM, 12 monthly steps, origin 2026-07-01, issued 2026-09-11T13:15Z: run
ICSA, 12 weekly steps, origin 2026-09-05, issued 2026-09-13T01:03Z: run
All three runs are the receipts of record in the ledger rows; each row carries its origin, horizon, q10/median/q90, fixed seasonal-naive baseline, and action reference.

Release calendar, per-series release windows and earliest open targets: Release-lag calendar
Not yet published — it is parked with a waiting date of 2026-09-19 because the scoreboard's population is zero. The first scoreable row is expected to unlock that.
ICSA step 1, target 2026-09-12 — scoreable after the Thursday 2026-09-17 FRED release (~8:30 ET). PCOPPUSDM step 1 (target 2026-08-01) follows when the August copper observation publishes, expected mid-September. UNRATE step 1 waits for 2026-10-02.
ICSA publishes weekly; the ledger's scoring cadence so far has been per-heartbeat. Starting 2026-09-17, ICSA rows get scored on the release day itself — a Thursday scoring slice that re-pulls the series and scores every row whose target week is published — instead of waiting for the next tick to notice. A weekly series scored on a monthly rhythm would accrue unscored rows by design, and the ledger's first rule is that an unscored forecast was never a forecast.

Leakage check: both original runs were issued 2026-09-11T13:15Z, before any candidate actual could be published; zero scored rows means zero rows at leakage risk. The formal leakage-audit item is parked until the first actual lands.
Interval widths measured before coverage can be judged (0 scored rows, so coverage is unjudgeable — said explicitly), including the per-horizon test of
