SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires dio_search, dio_fetch, dio_init_run, dio_flush_events, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a structured research investigation platform capable of claim verification, query answering, and document fact-checking, with comprehensive evidence archive output.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Claim Verification: Investigate whether each claim is true, false, or partially true.
  • Query Answering: Answer research questions with evidence and confidence.
  • Document Fact-Checking: Verify the accuracy of documents using a comprehensive evidence base.
  • Use Case: Imagine you want to verify a claim about a new AI technology. You can input the claim into the Skill, and it will run a structured investigation to determine the validity of the claim, providing a full evidence archive.

Quick Start

Run research with the provided input file 'research-input.md'.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate claim verification for a research document?

Claim verification is automated using an 11-step evidence-based process to investigate whether claims are true, false, or partially true. It analyzes your input documents and outputs a comprehensive evidence archive.

What is the best way to fact-check a document using structured research?

Structured document fact-checking is handled by verifying document accuracy against a comprehensive evidence base. It determines the validity of statements within the document and generates an evidence archive.

How does query answering work for research investigations?

Query answering executes research investigations to answer your questions with supporting evidence and a confidence score. It uses sub-agents and an 11-step process to analyze the query.

Do I need sub-agents to run structured research investigations?

Yes, structured research investigations require various sub-agents to handle different research components. These sub-agents execute the 11-step evidence-based process for claim verification and query answering.

How do I start an evidence archive investigation with an input file?

Start an evidence archive investigation by running the research process with your provided input file named 'research-input.md'. The Skill processes this file to execute the structured investigation.

What are the limitations of using an 11-step evidence-based research process?

The 11-step evidence-based research process requires multiple sub-agents to function, meaning it needs a robust environment to execute its structured investigation and generate the final evidence archive output.
