Does it evaluate the quality of the writing?

No, this skill focuses strictly on factual accuracy and verification; it does not assess writing style, methodology soundness, or professional opinion.

What happens if a claim cannot be verified?

The skill classifies it as 'Unverifiable' in the final report, listing exactly which sources were checked so the user can perform further manual investigation.

Where is the verification report saved?

It automatically creates a companion Markdown file named '{document-name}-verification.md' in the same directory as the source document for easy reference.

What documents are best suited for this skill?

It is ideal for academic reviews, grant assessments, technical reports, and any AI-generated content that relies on specific factual data or citations.

How does the Fact-Check skill detect hallucinations?

It treats all claims as unproven by default and uses tools like WebSearch and WebFetch to cross-reference every name, quote, and statistic against primary authoritative sources.

Verifies factual claims, citations, and quotes in documents against authoritative sources to eliminate AI hallucinations.

The Fact-Check skill is a rigorous validation tool designed to ensure the integrity of research-heavy documents by systematically auditing every factual claim. Operating on a 'burden of proof' model, it treats all quotes, statistics, and references as potential hallucinations until they are cross-referenced against primary sources like university profiles, grant databases, and publication servers. This skill is indispensable for academics, reviewers, and professionals who need to guarantee the accuracy of reports, assessments, and AI-generated content before final submission.
