High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add inline citations to factual claims in a research brief?▼

Inline citations anchor every factual claim to an accessible, verifiable source artifact. For research briefs, link each claim directly to a file, URL, or page number so readers can open and verify the exact information.

What is the best way to cite specific data points and numbers in decision memos?▼

The best way to cite specific numbers in decision memos is referencing the precise cell or section of the source artifact. This inline citation method links data directly to its canonical source, reducing ambiguity and ensuring verifiability for decision-makers.

When do I need to link sources to claims in cross-team reports?▼

You need to link sources to claims in cross-team reports whenever the document informs a decision. Applying inline citations to research syntheses, briefs, and recaps establishes trust and ensures every factual claim points to a verifiable, accessible artifact.

Does verifiability require linking to the canonical artifact or just a general reference?▼

Verifiability requires linking to the canonical artifact, not just a general reference. You must cite the actual artifact inline—such as a specific file, URL, or page number—and ensure any numbers reference the precise cell or section for complete trust.
