# Fact Check Verify a claim by actively searching for BOTH supporting and contradicting evidence. Counteracts LLM confirmation bias by enforcing adversarial search. ## Steps 1. **Decompose the claim** into verifiable sub-claims: - Separate factual assertions from opinions - Identify the core falsifiable statement - Note the domain: scientific, technical, historical, statistical, or current events 2. **Search for SUPPORTING evidence** using `search`: - `search(action="search", query="[claim as stated]")` - For scientific claims: `search(action="search", query="[claim] research evidence", search_type="academic")` - Extract 2-3 strongest supporting sources with `extract` 3. **Search for CONTRADICTING evidence** (mandatory — do NOT skip): - `search(action="search", query="[claim] debunked OR wrong OR myth OR criticism")` - `search(action="search", query="[opposite of claim] evidence")` - For scientific claims: `search(action="search", query="[claim] replication failure OR meta-analysis", search_type="academic")` - Extract 2-3 strongest contradicting sources with `extract` 4. **Assess source quality** for each piece of evidence: - **Tier 1**: Peer-reviewed journals, official statistics, primary sources - **Tier 2**: Established news outlets, institutional reports, expert analysis - **Tier 3**: Blogs, forums, social media, opinion pieces - **Tier 4**: Anonymous sources, undated content, known biased outlets - Discard Tier 4 unless
