J asked: "kind of like a scrolling ticker that has all of the companies
and their stock prices and where they fit in the map." Implemented as
a horizontal-scroll strip at the top of /profiler:
9 public issuers in this view · quotes via Stooq · 669ms
┌────┬────┬────┬────┬────┬────┬────┐
│TGT │JPM │BALY│ACRE│FCBC│NREF│LSBK│ ← live price + day-change per
│129 │311 │... │... │... │... │... │ ticker, color-banded by
│+.17│+1.5│... │... │... │... │... │ attribution kind
└────┴────┴────┴────┴────┴────┴────┘
Each card carries:
- ticker + live price + day-change % (red/green)
- attribution count + kind (exact / direct / parent / associated)
- left bar color = strongest attribution kind (green for direct
issuer, amber for parent, blue for co-permit associated, gradient
when both direct and associated apply)
- tooltip on hover lists the contractors attributed to this ticker
- click toggles a filter on the table below — clicking TGT cuts the
200-row list down to just TARGET CORPORATION + TORNOW, KYLE F
(Target's primary co-permit contractor)
Server-side:
- entity.ts exports fetchStooqQuote (was internal)
- new POST /intelligence/ticker_quotes — accepts {tickers: [...]},
fans out to Stooq.us in parallel, returns
{ticker, price, price_date, open, high, low, day_change_pct,
stooq_url} per symbol or null for non-US listings (HOC.DE, SKA-B.ST,
LLC.AX). Capped at 50 symbols per call.
Front-end:
- mcp-server/profiler.html — new .basket-wrap section above the
controls. buildBasket() runs after profiler_index loads:
1. Aggregates unique tickers from .tickers.direct + .associated
across all surfaced contractors
2. Renders shells immediately (ticker symbol + "—" placeholder)
3. Batch-fetches quotes via /intelligence/ticker_quotes
4. Updates each card with price + day-change in place
Click on a card sets a tickerFilter; render() skips rows whose
attributions don't include that ticker. "clear filter" button on
the basket strip resets it.
Verified end-to-end on devop.live/lakehouse/profiler:
Default load → 9 issuers, live prices populated in 669ms
TGT click → table filters to TARGET CORPORATION + TORNOW, KYLE F
(the contractor who runs 3 of Target's recent permits
gets the TGT correlation indicator)
JPM card → $311.63, +1.55% — JPMorgan-adjacent contractors
Tooltip → list of contractors attributed to the ticker
J's framing: "if a contractor works for Target, future Target contracts
mean money flows back to the contractor — the ticker is an associated
indicator." Now the profiler index attaches three flavors of ticker per
contractor and renders them as colored pills:
green DIRECT contractor IS the public issuer (Target Corp → TGT)
amber PARENT contractor is a subsidiary of a public parent
(Turner Construction → HOC.DE via Hochtief AG)
blue ASSOCIATED contractor co-appears on permits with a public
entity (TORNOW, KYLE F → TGT, 3 shared permits with
TARGET CORPORATION)
The associated flavor is the correlation signal J described — it pulls
the ticker for whoever the contractor has been working *with*, not
just what they are themselves. Most contractors are private; the
associated link is how the moat shows up.
Server-side:
- entity.ts new export `lookupTickerLite(name)` — cheap in-memory
resolver that does only the SEC tickers index lookup + curated
KNOWN_PARENT_MAP check, no per-call SEC profile or Stooq fetch.
~10ms per name after the index is loaded once.
- /intelligence/profiler_index now runs a third Socrata pull
(5K permit pairs in window) to build a co-occurrence map. For each
contractor in the result, attaches:
.tickers.direct[] — name matches a public issuer
.tickers.associated[] — top 5 co-permit partners that resolve
to a ticker, with partner_name +
co_permits count + partner_via reason
Front-end:
- mcp-server/profiler.html — new .ticker-pill styles (3 colors per
attribution kind), pills render under the contractor name in the
table. Hover title gives the full reason path.
Verified end-to-end on the public URL:
search="tornow" → blue TGT pill, hint "Associated via co-permits
with TARGET CORPORATION (3 shared permits) —
TARGET CORP"
search="target" → green TGT × 2 (TARGET CORPORATION +
CORPORATION TARGET name variants both resolve
direct to the same issuer)
default top 200 → 15 ticker pills surface across the page including
JPM (via JPMORGAN CHASE BANK co-permits) and
parent-link tickers for the construction majors.
J asked for "a profiler index that shows a history of everyone." This
is a /profiler directory page (also reachable via /contractors) that
ranks every contractor who's filed a Chicago permit, by total permit
value. Rows are clickable into the full /contractor profile.
Defaults: since 2025-06-01, min permit cost $250K, top 200 contractors
by total_cost. Server pulls two Socrata GROUP BY queries (one keyed on
contact_1_name, one on contact_2_name), merges them so contractors
listed in either applicant or contractor slot appear once with combined
counts/cost. ~300ms cold.
UI: live search box, since-date selector, min-cost selector, sortable
columns (name / permits / total_cost / last_filed). Live numbers as of
this write: 200 contractors, 1,702 permits, $14.22B aggregate. Filter
"Target" returns TARGET CORPORATION + CORPORATION TARGET (name variants
from Socrata).
Also fixes J's other complaint — "no new contracts, Target is gone":
/intelligence/permit_contracts was hard-capped at $limit=6 + only
the most recent 6 over $250K, so any day with 6 fresh permits would
push older contractors (Target) off the panel entirely. Now defaults
to 24 (caller can pass body.limit up to 100), so 2-3 days of permits
stay on the panel. Added body.contractor — passes a name into the
WHERE so the staffer can pin a specific contractor to the panel
("Target Corporation" → 3 of their permits over $250K).
Server-side:
- new POST /intelligence/profiler_index — paginated contractor index
(since, min_cost, search, limit) with merged contact_1+contact_2
aggregations
- /intelligence/permit_contracts — body.limit + body.contractor
- /profiler and /contractors routes serve profiler.html
Front-end:
- new mcp-server/profiler.html — sortable table, live filter, deep
links to /contractor?name=... (prefix-aware via P, so /lakehouse
works on devop.live)
- search.html + console.html nav: added "Profiler" link
