Overview Watch: Attribution Monitoring for AI Overviews Comprehensive development plan for a Chrome extension that gives creators real-time visibility into how AI-generated overviews represent their intellectual labor. The extension detects AI Overviews on Google search results, matches them against the user's registered works, and classifies attribution behavior as ATTRIBUTED, SOURCED_UNATTRIBUTED, ABSORBED, or ABSENT. With explicit user consent, anonymized overview payloads are contributed to the Semantic Economy Attribution Corpus (SEAC) — a DOI-anchored research dataset documenting attribution rates, source diversity, and liquidation patterns across the AI overview ecosystem. The extension is simultaneously a personal forensic instrument, a collective measurement tool, and an empirical research surface for the Semantic Economy framework. Total startup cost: under $20.

# Overview Watch: Comprehensive Development Plan for Attribution Monitoring in AI Overviews (EA-OVW-PLAN-01)
## Methodology
Assembled from DataCite full-metadata capture; no live authorial surface passed the body-head gate or existed for this work at restoration time. All captured fields rendered verbatim in the body.
## Falsification Conditions
Superseded on sight by any recovered canonical bytes; the captured metadata is verifiable against the DataCite API historical record and the Zenodo tombstone.
