The idea
This is the discovery path made hands-on. You hand TrustGate a list, you get a read per item, and then you decide how far to take it. The default is to show trust without touching your order. Reordering is a separate, deliberate step you opt into. The order of operations matters here, so read it in order.Score the list
Send your list of tokens in one batch read and get back a read for each. This is the batch path that powers discovery.
Badge and flag, in your order
The default and least invasive move. Render a trust badge and any flags next to each item, in the exact order your feed already has. Your ranking is untouched. Users simply gain a read they did not have.

Why it is built this way
A discovery feed is a product decision, and it belongs to you. A trust layer that quietly reshuffled it would be taking over the very thing that makes your feed yours. So TrustGate draws the line hard: it will badge, it will flag, it will offer you a trust-ranked version of the list, and it will never impose one. The strongest, most invasive action is the one most clearly left in your hands.Badging and flagging are safe to ship as the default everywhere. Reach for reordering when you have decided trust should shape the order, not before.
