# Authenticity Pass

Read the supplied draft; a missing or empty draft is BLOCK. This checks substance, not whether a human literally authored it. Do not invent personal experience, numbers, or opinions to satisfy the rubric.
Score three markers with exact phrases from the draft: METRIC (specific defensible number), CONSTRAINT (real limitation, failure, condition, or tradeoff), and OPINION (an arguable point of view).
For long-form posts over 280 characters, require all three. For short posts and replies, require METRIC or CONSTRAINT; opinion alone is insufficient.
Return `AUTHENTICITY VERDICT: PASS` or `AUTHENTICITY VERDICT: BLOCK`, the marker evidence, and specific sourcing or revision steps for missing markers. After two unsuccessful revision cycles, explain the missing source material instead of manufacturing specificity. Passing is an editorial result; publication still requires the user's authorization.
