verifyinglisted

Use when verifying information (fact, number, quote, event, statement) against authoritative primary sources, or cross-checking a number via one-level metric decomposition (Z = P × Q). Triggers: "verify X", "is this true", "find the original source", "where is this number from", "two sources disagree", "is it true X never did Y". Covers five scenarios: (1) basic truthfulness check, (2) completeness / out-of-context quoting, (3) one-level reasoning verification, (4) negative-statement handling, (5) multi-source conflict side-by-side output. Dig into whitelisted primary sources only (user-supplied files, official websites & databases, authoritative industry sources); cited reports / charts / datasets must be downloaded and read locally to count as verified — if download is blocked, hand the link to the user. If nothing can be found, plainly state "cannot verify" rather than guessing, patching, or citing secondary paraphrases. Always reply in the user's question language.

# Information Verification Skill > Bilingual skill. Chinese version: `SKILL.zh.md`. English is the single source of truth; the `.zh.md` is a synchronized translation — always edit the English first, then mirror the change into `.zh.md` in the same change-set, never edit only the Chinese. ## Purpose The user provides a sentence or paragraph that needs verification. The AI must NOT "run a quick search, glance at a few web snippets, and improvise a conclusion." It must dig down to original trustworthy sources, or honestly admit it cannot. Five scenarios are covered: 1. **Basic truthfulness check**: whether the numbers / facts / quotes in the statement are accurate. 2. **Completeness**: when the source is correct but the user's quotation is out of context — supply the missing context. 3. **One-level reasoning verification**: when a direct number cannot be traced to a primary source, cross-check via metric decomposition (Z = P × Q). 4. **Negative statements**: detect unfalsifiable claims like "X has never done Y" and switch to a "search for a counter-example" path. 5. **Multi-source conflict**: when two authoritative sources disagree on the same figure, present them side-by-side with a difference attribution. ## Input The user supplies one statement (or paragraph) to verify. Optional attachments (PDFs, links, screenshots, notes) take priority as material to verify against. ## Scope exclusions (refused topics) Before any verification work begins, check whether the statemen
