> Papyrus gives independent publishers a staff of agents that find sources, prepare the reporting and draft the stories, while editors steer what they find, what they write about and how it reads. Open source, runs in your AWS account.

- [The standard Papyrus front end](https://p.apyr.us/standard-front-end.md): One renderer for static Papyrus sites: settings in projection.json, a theme, brand assets, and a few named hooks. What it produces and how a site configures it.
- [Reader votes and ratings](https://p.apyr.us/reader-votes-and-ratings.md): Readers of a Papyrus publication can sign in, pick a handle, upvote, mark an item as used and rate it. Reader identity is in place; reader sign-in turns on one site at a time.
- [Reader submissions and moderation](https://p.apyr.us/reader-submissions-and-moderation.md): Readers of a Papyrus publication can submit a link that is public at once; editors moderate after the fact, with an optional AI moderator. Built and tested; it turns on one site at a time.
- [A public knowledge base for a Papyrus publication](https://p.apyr.us/public-knowledge-base.md): A read-only wiki of the entities and topics a publication covers, with weekly trends, sparklines and emerging clusters, built from the publication's own items. Beta; running on shipped.anth.us. The weekly run, the snapshot command, the blocks and how a site adopts it.
- [Newsletters for a Papyrus publication](https://p.apyr.us/newsletters.md): A publication gets a subscriber list with double opt-in, a weekly roundup an admin approves, and alerts when items publish. Released in Papyrus 5.21.0; running on shipped.anth.us. Setup and the sending prerequisite.
- [Comments as steering](https://p.apyr.us/comments-as-steering.md): Readers of a Papyrus publication can comment on stories and explain their ratings. Their reasons are exported next to the votes they explain, so the publication can learn from them. Built and tested; it turns on one site at a time.
- [Papyrus sites are readable by agents and people alike](https://p.apyr.us/agent-accessible.md): Every page has a Markdown twin, every site has llms.txt and feeds, and a request for Markdown gets Markdown. What ships today, with live examples.
