Calibrated via isotonic refit on 810 live outcomes (2026-05-20). See calibration drift → · BW country profile →

The Voidly Sentinel model scores BW at a peak 5.6% shutdown-risk level over the next 7 days, highest on day 7 (Mon, Jun 1). Average across the window: 3%. This is a current-regime risk reading, not a prediction that a new shutdown will start — see the scope note below.

Honest scope: this is a current-regime risk signal, not a shutdown-onset predictor. It reliably flags countries already in a sustained blocking regime; on the days a new shutdown actually begins its skill is at/below chance (transition-row AUC ~0.33). Why →

Honest caveats

  • Calibration was refit on 2026-05-20 on 810 live outcomes — it's good for the 30 watched censoring countries but will drift if the world changes. Nightly recalibration runs at 04:30 UTC.
  • A 70% forecast doesn't mean a shutdown is guaranteed; a 20% forecast doesn't mean it's safe. The 90% conformal interval is the honest uncertainty band.
  • For long-form methodology see /methodology and the calibration refit finding.
