CommunityGuarantee citations match real source lines.
System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
It prevents fabricated or inaccurate citations by verifying that every cited_locations entry in a decode spec points to an existing file, a valid line range, and source text that matches the referenced excerpt.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Static citation verification: Checks cited file existence, validates line_start/line_end bounds, and compares extracted source content against the cited excerpt using the selected normalization mode.
- Deterministic, no-LLM enforcement: Runs as a pure read-and-compare pass with no model reasoning, suitable for tight enterprise-grade auditability.
- Actionable integrity reports: Produces a citation-integrity report with per-citation breadcrumbs and mismatch details, enabling fast correction before specs are marked captured.
Use case: when a /decode workflow proposes behavior/flow/aspect content with citations, this skill ensures the citations are real and exact (modulo configured whitespace normalization), stopping capture if integrity fails.
Quick Start
Run verify-citation-integrity on the target decode spec to generate a citation integrity report at the configured output path.
