Fact-Checker

About

The Fact-Checker skill is a specialized tool designed for editors and technical writers to audit content before publication. It systematically scans drafts to extract and validate technical claims—including live code execution in sandboxed environments—while cross-referencing statistics, API documentation, and attributions. By producing structured reports with clear verdicts, it streamlines the editorial process, catching outdated package names, broken links, and misattributed quotes to maintain high standards of factual integrity.
