- Probed 2026-07-26: index reachable (HTTP 200), no RSS/Atom feed found or autodiscovered — but research 2026-07-28 found OCC documents an RSS index at occ.gov/rss/index-rss.html with separate feeds for News Releases, Bulletins, Alerts, and Public Service Announcements (Bulletins/Alerts add supervisory-guidance coverage beyond press). Capture exact feed URLs from that page at probe; upgrade type to rss on confirmation. Probed 2026-07-31 (from the operator machine, outside the server's daily budget): reachable, HTTP 200, robots allows, but no machine-readable feed is advertised — ingestion waits on an html-index adapter, not on the publisher. Phase 5, 2026-07-31: the html-index adapter now exists and was run against this source's captured index bytes. Against the 2026-07-31 capture it reads listing has 77 article link(s); 0 dated inside the 7-day lookback, 0 dated outside it, 77 skipped for no readable date — the served HTML states no per-entry publication date, so every entry is skipped rather than dated by observation. This is a script-rendered listing; opening it needs evidence of a dated channel, not a cadence decision.
How we ingest it
- Channel
- HTML index
- Method
- Would poll the documented RSS suite (occ.gov/rss/index-rss.html) for news releases, bulletins, and alerts.
- Request budget
- the agency class: at most 1,500 requests per day shared across every agency web source, counted from the fetch log (failed requests count too)
- Politeness
- robots.txt is honored as observed — including each host's crawl-delay, exactly — and every request identifies itself as fapd/0.1 (Free Agentic Publication Digester; +https://fapd.info/bot.html; contact: hustleyourcity@gmail.com); a refusal is recorded, never evaded
- Capture and hash
- captured raw content is hashed (SHA-256) into the day's committed provenance manifest, hash-chained day to day (PROVENANCE.md)

Ingestion statistics
These figures describe this project's ingestion of this source — items we recorded and requests we made — and nothing else. They are not a measurement of the publisher.

Last 30 days, day by day
No requests and no items were recorded in the last 30 days, so there is nothing to chart.
