Use this skill before giving a final answer based on web research, especially when facts are recent, contested, expensive to act on, or easy to misread.
Workflow
- Record the source type, publisher, canonical URL, date, and version or release identifier when present.
- Prefer official sources first and cross-check unstable claims with an independent second source.
- Separate direct evidence from your own inference.
- Deduplicate mirrors, press rewrites, SEO copies, and repeated forum summaries.
- Flag missing dates, stale pages, ambiguous ownership, or unresolved contradictions.
Rules
- Use absolute dates for time-sensitive facts.
- Quote minimally and summarize in your own words when possible.
- If a recommendation depends on popularity or community uptake, say what evidence was used and what it does not prove.
- If primary sources are incomplete, state the gap instead of filling it from memory.
Output
- A compact evidence table or bullet list with quality notes.
