SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Skill automates extraction of verifiable facts from documents and cross-checks them with independent sources, delivering a structured discrepancy report and ready-to-apply corrections.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Triangulation-based fact extraction across Who/What/When/Where/How much/Why, with source grading (S1–S4) and explicit notations for unverifiable items.
  • Dual-mode validation (LIGHT for numerical checks, DEEP for full causal and missing-evidence verification) using parallel web searches and internal consistency checks.
  • Automatic generation of Before/After edit proposals and a consolidated verification report suitable for editor review.

Quick Start

Provide a document path and request a deep fact-check to generate a correction report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate fact-checking and source verification for a document?

To automate fact-checking, provide a document path to trigger extraction of verifiable facts, which are cross-checked with independent sources using triangulation to produce a discrepancy report.

What is triangulation-based data verification and how does it grade sources?

Triangulation-based data verification cross-checks extracted facts across Who/What/When/Where metrics using source grading from S1 to S4, explicitly flagging unverifiable items in the final report.

Can I run numerical validation separately from full causal verification?

Yes, you can run numerical validation separately using LIGHT mode for quick numerical checks, while DEEP mode handles full causal verification and missing-evidence detection.

How do I generate correction reports and edit proposals for reviewed documents?

You generate correction reports by requesting a deep fact-check, which produces automatic Before/After edit proposals and a consolidated verification summary with source citations.

Are there limitations when verifying facts with missing evidence in a text?

When verifying facts with missing evidence, DEEP mode attempts missing-evidence detection, but items lacking independent sources are explicitly noted as unverifiable in the final discrepancy report.
