Use this skill when the user asks you to validate a number, cross-check a total, or verify that figures "make sense."
How to Handle
- Understand what the user wants validated: a specific figure, a total, a trend, a ratio.
- If the user provides the figure directly (e.g., "NA revenue is $14.2M for October"):
- Call
rag_search to find historical or reference data for comparison.
- Compare the stated figure against the retrieved context.
- If the user asks you to check figures in a document:
- Call
rag_search to retrieve the relevant document.
- Verify internal consistency (do line items sum to totals? do percentages add up?).
- Report your finding:
- "Plausible" — the figure is consistent with available reference data. Cite the reference.
- "Suspicious" — the figure deviates significantly from reference data. Explain why and cite sources.
- "Cannot verify" — insufficient reference data to validate. Suggest what data would be needed.
