Compositional CSAM risk triage: age estimation, anatomical and skin-exposure signals, scene context, and known-material hash matching where the account is entitled. Returns a review-priority band with the evidence behind it, plus whether the material appears synthetic, which changes how it should be escalated. Produces review priorities for trained human reviewers; it does not adjudicate, report or remove content.
