Research direction
Start with the weekly-refresh note in docs/security-levels.md and search the docs/data-sources/ files for references to weekly updates. Update those references to reflect that TPP data will be refreshed every four weeks from 7 August 2026. Done means the security note and all relevant data source references consistently describe the new schedule.
