Verifies factual claims in documents using web search and official sources, then proposes corrections with user confirmation. Use when the user asks to fact-check, verify information, validate claims, check accuracy, or update outdated information in documents. Supports AI model specs, technical documentation, statistics, and general factual statements.

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

# Fact Checker

Verify factual claims in documents and propose corrections backed by authoritative sources.

## When to use

Trigger when users request:
- "Fact-check this document"
- "Verify these AI model specifications"
- "Check if this information is still accurate"
- "Update outdated data in this file"
- "Validate the claims in this section"

## Workflow

Copy this checklist to track progress:

```
Fact-checking Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Identify factual claims
- [ ] Step 2: Search authoritative sources
- [ ] Step 3: Compare claims against sources
- [ ] Step 4: Generate correction report
- [ ] Step 5: Apply corrections with user approval
```

### Step 1: Identify factual claims

Scan the document for verifiable statements:

**Target claim types:**
- Technical specifications (context windows, pricing, features)
- Version numbers and release dates
- Statistical data and metrics
- API capabilities and limitations
- Benchmark scores and performance data

**Skip subjective content:**
- Opinions and recommendations
- Explanatory prose
- Tutorial instructions
- Architectural discussions

### Step 2: Search authoritative sources

For each claim, search official sources:

**AI models:**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add daymade/claude-code-skills/fact-checker@sha256:1a09e288c4317314

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260524.69aba68, 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.
