  "limitations": [
    "The 39 core documents use embedded text that looked reliable in the first scan; all expansion documents are searchable but labeled review-recommended.",
    "OCR expansion excerpts can include OCR noise, encoding artifacts, redaction markers, rotated pages, or sparse pages. Treat them as navigation aids, not polished transcripts.",
    "All 11 text-heavy PDFs from the initial OCR-needed queue now have first-pass OCR. 25 photo/sketch exhibit PDFs are tracked but not text-indexed, 3 sparse/redaction-heavy PDFs from batch 01 are not full-text searchable, and 1 OCR-checked file was too low-yield to add to search.",
    "Descriptions come from the WAR.gov release CSV and local extraction metadata; they are not independent factual claims.",
    "Video and image-only assets are out of scope for this text-first pass."
  ],
  "next_steps": [
    "Spot-check OCR confidence on historic, faded, handwritten, rotated, image-heavy, or heavily redacted pages.",
    "Add page-level method labels so users can distinguish embedded text, OCR text, sparse text, blank/redacted pages, and image-only exhibits.",
    "Decide whether to add a separate image-review view for the 25 photo/sketch exhibit PDFs.",
    "Keep the finding aid updated if WAR.gov adds, removes, or changes files."
  ],
  "mvp_note": "Automated, document-first MVP built from the WAR.gov release table. The search index now has a reliable core plus clearly labeled review-recommended expansion sets."
