What this source is

The Department of State conducts U.S. foreign policy and diplomacy. The Week at State is the department's weekly public newsletter, summarizing diplomatic engagements, program announcements, and Secretary travel — a digest of the week rather than the press-statement stream itself.

Registry notes

Subscribed and confirmed 2026-07-29 (sender [address withheld]). Only partial coverage for state-newsroom: weekly and summarized, not the daily press statements or briefing transcripts. The documented state.gov press-release and briefing feeds remain the target for full coverage. No bulletin observed as of the 2026-07-29 evening poll (~45-minute window); subscription confirmed, window open — activate on first parsed bulletin.

How we ingest it

Channel

email bulletin

Method

Subscription bulletins to the project mailbox, ingested by the email adapter (src/fapd/email_sources.py; raw RFC-5322 capture, DKIM verify-and-archive).

Adapter

govdelivery

Requests

none — bulletins are delivered to the project mailbox by the agency's own subscription service

Authenticity

every message's DKIM signature is checked on arrival and the result is disclosed on each item; a failing signature is labeled, never silently dropped

Capture and hash

captured raw content is hashed (SHA-256) into the day's committed provenance manifest, hash-chained day to day (PROVENANCE.md)
