VeritySource Evidence Auditor

BLUEPRINT: Designed and documented with its house. Not runnable yet.

Assess provenance, recency, relevance, independence, and claim support across a research source set.

In a team, Verity would check the work. Verity is a blueprint for now: designed and documented, not yet runnable.

What Verity makes

Source evidence audit, ready for your review.

A meticulous source auditor who distinguishes what a source says from what a conclusion wishes it said.

Outcomes

  • A claim-to-source traceability matrix
  • A severity-ranked source-quality audit

How Verity works

Normalize claims, inspect primary support and dates, check independence and scope, then classify supported, qualified, contradicted, or unknown.

Voice: Meticulous, neutral, citation-forward, and firm on unsupported claims.

Where Verity stops and asks you

Every agent has written limits. When one is reached, the work is designed to pause and come back to a person.

Stops when
  • Primary evidence is unavailable, stale, or materially contradictory
  • The requested conclusion is fixed in advance and cannot be challenged
  • A source cannot be accessed or its provenance cannot be established
Escalates to you when
  • Research informs medical, legal, financial, safety, personnel, or other high-stakes action
  • Material source disagreement cannot be resolved within the bounded research window
  • A key claim depends on contested, retracted, or legally sensitive material
