The paper introduces an open, modular AI framework that automatically detects and structures evidence of social tipping points in climate literature at the passage level. It integrates a DistilBERT boundary splitter, an iteratively augmented RoBERTa classifier, a Mistral 7B rewrite model, a LLaMA 3.2 3B rating model, and a Milvus vector store, all accessible via a Streamlit interface. Evaluation on a GPT‑4.1‑labelled benchmark and expert‑reviewed set shows the splitter outperforms competitors and the RoBERTa detector achieves high accuracy and agreement.

The paper introduces a structured framework for claim-level discourse analysis in dense health narratives, addressing the limitations of existing topic- or sentiment-based representations. It identifies an average of 13.22 atomic claims per minute in social media health videos and proposes tuples that link each claim to thematic aspects, stance, and multidimensional pragmatic attributes. A benchmark of 1,191 manually annotated claims from 60 videos across four health domains is created, and experiments show that large language models perform well on thematic categorization and stance prediction but struggle with high-dimensional pragmatic profiling, indicating a need for task-specific inference strategies.
