What problem does it solve?
It helps you ensure that claims in reports and papers are supported by real, accessible sources, and that citation content and usage are consistent with the cited material.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Reference existence verification: Checks whether URL links and cited items actually exist and attempts retrieval via multiple access methods and fallbacks (e.g., URL variations, Archive.org snapshots, DOI redirects).
- Citation-to-content consistency: Confirms that cited numerical and factual information matches what appears in the original source and flags discrepancies.
- Contextual appropriateness review: Assesses whether the citation fits the surrounding claim, including detecting misleading or over-generalized citations.
- Correction and reporting workflow: Suggests fixes for auto-fixable issues, requests human review when content is AI-inaccessible or requires confirmation, and re-checks after changes.
- Use case: Before submitting a paper or sharing a report, you can validate that every link and in-text citation backs the stated facts and data.
Quick Start
Use the evidence-check skill to verify all links and citations in your draft and return a structured report of no issues, auto-fixable problems, and items needing human review.
