A transit search where a panel of independent reviewers marks dips in blind-coded light curves, consensus is skill-weighted, and every candidate keeps its provenance. Built to follow the Planet Hunters CHEOPS workflow.
Probes only; Sentinels not run on this example. Sentinels run on Claude (Anthropic) by default; other providers are supported and labelled. Probes are deterministic matched-filter detectors.
Thresholds, weights and every input are written to manifest.json, so a result can be rerun exactly.
Passed candidates are the catalogue. Rejected and flagged events are kept on purpose, so a reader can see what the vetting decided and why.
Every reviewer's answer for every blind-coded subject. Disagreement is kept visible, because it is where the consensus is earned.

*Hot Jupiter.* A Jupiter-sized planet on a 3.3-day orbit: deep, easy transits, in the TESS southern continuous viewing zone.
Run runs/tess-wasp-126-s1 (TESS SPOC 2-minute, sector 1; config configs/showcase/tess-wasp-126-s1.toml, sha256 23bb51a268efd59e…; code v0.1.0-3-g0c029a2). Light curves: public TESS data from MAST tess2018206045859-s0001-0000000025155310-0120-s_lc.fits (sha256 12ddd623b04bdd35…).
**Probes only; Sentinels not run on this example.** 8 dips (8 candidates).
The easy case: a transit about 0.6% deep that any search should find, so it shows the whole path from light curve to fit with little doubt about the signal.
Published values: NASA Exoplanet Archive, table ps (every row for each planet), fetched 2026-10-22 (docs/results/showcase_reference.json). Each planet's transits are predicted from the archive row named below; SetuHQ's values are the medians over the dips on that ephemeris that were not rejected (the limb-darkened fit's Rp/R★, T14 and mid-transit depth, and the BLS period). Depth definitions differ between papers and this fit, so compare Rp/R★ and T14 first. A blank published value is one the archive does not hold for that paper; it is not compared.
Ephemeris from Ivshina & Winn 2022; compared with Maxted et al. 2016 (https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016A&A...591A..55M/abstract).
| quantity | SetuHQ | Maxted et al. 2016 | ratio | archive default (Pearson 2019) | ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P (d) | 3.28895 | 3.28880 | 1.000 | 3.28883 | 1.000 |
| Rp/R★ | 0.0780 | 0.0780 | 1.000 | ||
| T14 (h) | 3.48 | 3.41 | 1.021 | ||
| depth (ppm) | 7,056 |
Transits predicted in the stored light curve: 8; with a dip on them: 8 (8 dips; 8 passed; mean offset -14.7 min).
A known planet found again is a check of the pipeline, not a discovery. WASP-126 b: 8 of 8 transits (8 candidates).
Panel: volunteer-sensitive, volunteer-typical, volunteer-cautious
Weights: volunteer-cautious=0.633, volunteer-sensitive=0.667, volunteer-typical=0.667
Completeness is the fraction of injected transits recovered as a vetted candidate, with the consensus centred within half a transit duration of the injection.
