How it is built
- Draft: {{draft}}
- Task: List every factual claim that could be wrong: numbers, dates, names, quotes and statements about the world.
- Format: A table: the claim as written, why it might be wrong, how to check it, and a risk level (high, medium, low). High-risk claims first.
- Constraints: Do not say whether claims are true unless the draft itself provides the evidence; your job is to find what needs checking.
Tips
