The Tabularium
rationem reddere — the account, rendered
Every Watch Ahead call the Cursus has issued, graded against criteria fixed at publication. Append-only — misses stand in the same type as hits, and nothing is ever removed.
The Ledger
| № | Issued | Line | The call | Due ▾ | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XV | No. III · 3 Jul | Illegal Immigration · European Union, Rwanda… | The EU will not conclude a finalized return-hub agreement with Rwanda or Uzbekistan before 30 September 2026; talks slip, as prior EU/UK third-country schemes have. | 30 Sep | Open |
| XIV | No. II · 2 Jul | Transnational Organized Crime · Colombia | De la Espriella (inaugurated 7 Aug) will begin his pledged 90-day military crackdown on armed groups within his first two weeks in office (by 21 Aug). | 21 Aug | Open |
| XIII | No. II · 2 Jul | Partnerships · Peru | Peru's Fujimori government (inaugurated 28 July) will publicly signal continuity or warming of U.S. security cooperation by 15 August. | 15 Aug | Open |
| XII | No. III · 3 Jul | Partnerships · Colombia | De la Espriella will be inaugurated 7 August as scheduled, and Cepeda's threatened 'civil disobedience' will not materially disrupt the transfer of power. | 10 Aug | Open |
| XI | No. III · 3 Jul | Partnerships · Guatemala | The IACHR will proceed with its 4 August hearing on Porras-era political-persecution claims as scheduled (not postponed or cancelled). | 5 Aug | Open |
| X | No. II · 2 Jul | National Security · Iran, United States | The U.S.–Iran ceasefire will hold and Strait of Hormuz commercial shipping volumes will keep recovering (no renewed closure or major disruption) through 31 July. | 31 Jul | Open |
| IX | No. I · 1 Jul | National Security · China, Taiwan | No actual PRC boarding of, or armed standoff with, a commercial vessel in the Taiwan Strait will occur by 31 July; gray-zone pressure stays below the kinetic threshold. | 31 Jul | Open |
| VIII | No. I · 1 Jul | Illegal Immigration · Venezuela | Venezuela's June-24 earthquake casualty/missing figures will be revised further upward and early cross-border displacement indicators will appear by 31 July. | 31 Jul | Open |
| VII | No. IV · 4 Jul | Partnerships · Peru | Keiko Fujimori's July 28 inauguration will proceed on schedule, with counter-narcotics and border cooperation continuing uninterrupted through the transition. | 29 Jul | Open |
| VI | No. III · 3 Jul | Illicit Trade · United States, Mexico… | The 20 July USMCA joint-review round will end with the agreement still in force and its long-term status unresolved — no breakthrough and no collapse. | 27 Jul | Open |
| V | No. II · 2 Jul | Illicit Trade · United States, Mexico | The 20 July U.S.–Mexico USMCA round will conclude without a finalized rules-of-origin agreement; talks continue into a further round. | 27 Jul | Open |
| IV | No. I · 1 Jul | Illicit Trade · United States, Canada… | Canada will not have rejoined the USMCA talks as a full tripartite party by 27 July, and any rules-of-origin movement signaled will be toward tighter content thresholds rather than looser ones. | 27 Jul | Open |
| III | No. IV · 4 Jul | Illegal Immigration · Sudan | The RSF's el-Obeid offensive will intensify over the next one to two weeks, and a mass-casualty assault on the scale of El Fasher would trigger a fresh cross-border displacement wave toward Chad and Egypt. | 25 Jul | Open |
| II | No. IV · 4 Jul | Illicit Trade · Iran, Oman | Paused U.S.-Iran Doha talks on the Strait of Hormuz will resume shortly after the funeral concludes, with the toll/fee dispute still unresolved. | 20 Jul | Open |
| I | No. IV · 4 Jul | National Security · Iran, Saudi Arabia… | Houthi threats against Saudi airports and shipping will stay rhetorical through the close of Khamenei's funeral period (around July 9), with no actual strike on Saudi soil or vessels in that window. | 10 Jul | Open |
How the Account Is Kept
Criteria are fixed at publication. Every Watch Ahead call states its expectation, its window, and the counter-signal that would overturn it, in the edition where it appears. Those words are the resolution criteria; they are never revised.
The counter-signal is the trigger. If it fires within the window, the call is a Miss. If the expectation holds, Hit. Where the evidence cannot fairly decide, the verdict is Non liquet — the finding Roman jurors returned when a case could not be resolved — and it is excluded from the record.
Scoring. A hit counts one, a miss zero; non liquet is excluded from the denominator. No call is ever removed, renumbered, or regraded.
