Probe responses for inconsistency, logic gaps, and unsupported claims.
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
# cross-examine ## Purpose Probe responses for inconsistency, logic gaps, and unsupported claims. ## Input contract ```yaml required: [claim, response, questions, evidence] optional: [criteria, prior_rounds] constraints: [questions must target explicit claims or assumptions] ``` ## Procedure 1. Identify unsupported or inconsistent assertions. 2. Ask targeted follow-up questions. 3. Record answers, unresolved gaps, and evidence requests. ## Output contract ```yaml produces: [cross_examination_record, inconsistency_findings, evidence_requests] delta_fields: [findings, evidence_updates, uncertainties, open_questions] ``` ## Quality gates - Each question maps to a claim, premise, or inference step. ## Failure and counterexamples Do not treat refusal or verbosity as inconsistency without a claim-level comparison. ## Provenance map - resolved: cross-examination

How to install
mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/cross-examine@sha256:d727285ca2cc1d2aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.cbc38aa, 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.
