Dataset overview

Schema, field definitions, and the shape of the underlying CLCI Hub group records.

Coverage

The dataset contains 705 canonical and alias-redirect group profiles. Each profile records the group's operational pattern on Steven Hassan's four BITE axes (Behaviour, Information, Thought, Emotional control), plus a signed Modifier in the range −5 to +5. The total CLCI score is Behavior + Information + Thought + Emotional + Modifier, clamped to 0–40.

Core fields

Round-32 / Stage-2 extension fields

The canonical / alias / entity-tree extension introduced in Round 32 (May 2026) adds the following optional fields:

canonicalGroupId, aliases[], canonicalUrl
entityType (canonical_group, branch, splinter, leader_specific_regime, alias_redirect, etc.)
parentEntityId, successorEntityIds[], predecessorEntityIds[]
separationRationale, similarGroups[], mainstreamReferencePoints[]
scoreBand, scoreJustification, modifierReason
lastReviewed, lastUpdated, changeLog[]
qualityTier, editorialNotes
Source-density flags: hasCourtRecords, hasAcademicSources, hasInvestigativeJournalism, hasExMemberSources, hasOfficialStatements, hasCorrectionHistory

Schema source

The canonical TypeScript interface for each record is at lib/types.ts in the public GitHub repository. The Zod validation schema at lib/validate-groups.ts is what fails the build when a record diverges from the documented shape.
