  "summary": "Money-flow chain tracing 0 hops with documented total of USD 50000000. Confidence: secondary.",
  "methodology": "Money-flow chains are constructed by tracing financial transactions between entities through documented mechanisms (contracts, donations, grants, etc.). Each hop is independently cited. Vanish points mark where the audit trail breaks — funds enter an entity but no corresponding outflow is documented. Confidence is assessed per-hop and rolled up to the chain level.",
