Clarity Gate FAQs

Question 1

Does Clarity Gate check if my facts are true?

Accepted Answer

No, it verifies epistemic quality (how claims are stated). It ensures guesses are marked as guesses and hypotheses are labeled, but it requires human review to confirm the underlying truth.

Question 2

When should I use the clarity-gate skill?

Accepted Answer

Use it before ingesting documents into RAG systems, after writing new specifications, or when handing off documentation between different LLM-driven development sessions.

Question 3

Is human verification required for Clarity Gate?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the protocol mandates a Human-In-The-Loop (HITL) process because the tool verifies document form and epistemic markers, not the objective truth of the content itself.

Question 4

How does Clarity Gate differ from standard uncertainty detection?

Accepted Answer

While most tools detect existing hedges like 'maybe' or 'possibly', Clarity Gate enforces them, flagging claims that should be qualified but aren't, such as unverified projections presented as facts.

Question 5

What is a Clarity-Gated Document (CGD)?

Accepted Answer

A CGD is a standardized markdown file that includes specific epistemic markers and YAML metadata ensuring its claims have been verified for clarity and uncertainty before AI ingestion.
