Verify factual claims, statistics, and attributions

Scans a near-final asset for checkable assertions and for each surfaces what to verify, a confidence read, and where the source disagrees or is missing — flagging items requiring author confirmation before publication.

You might say…

There was a statistic I'd been citing for two years that turned out to be misattributed — the fact-check pass caught it before it went to print.

What it does

Single-judgement skill: scans the near-final asset for checkable assertions — statistics, dates, named facts, quotations, attributions — and for each surfaces what to verify, a confidence read, and where the source disagrees or is missing, flagging items the author must confirm before publication. Judgement-bearing because deciding what counts as sufficiently verified is editorial. Used as a dedicated fact-check pass before ship.
