Use this after drafting an article, before publish, to verify every factual claim and statistic against a named source.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Source check Verify every factual claim before publish. Read-only except adding a Sources section. ## Pass 1 — Extract Line by line, log factual claims, statistics, attributed statements, historical claims, causal assertions. Skip clearly labeled personal opinion. ## Pass 2 — Verify For each claim, in order: named in the draft, then available files/notes, then a primary web source. Rate: Verified, Unverified, Unsupported, Overstated. Record publication, title, date, URL. ## Pass 3 — Quality Flag single-source lean, stale stats, cherry-picking, vague attribution (“studies show”, “experts agree”), weak outlets. ## Pass 4 — Sources section Numbered list grouped by section. Update, do not duplicate. ## Verdict Solid / Mostly solid / Needs work / Unreliable. Suggest a fix for every problem. Do not rewrite prose. Original sources only. If a reporter cites a study, cite the study. Personal observation and common knowledge do not need a citation. …

How to install
mdr add coolxeo/grok-bot-skills/source-check@sha256:eeea2a096e9e2998The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.3ba1fbe, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
