SKILL.md# Clarity Gate v2.1
**Purpose:** Pre-ingestion verification system that enforces epistemic quality before documents enter RAG knowledge bases. Produces Clarity-Gated Documents (CGD) compliant with the Clarity Gate Format Specification v2.1.
**Core Question:** "If another LLM reads this document, will it mistake assumptions for facts?"
**Core Principle:** *"Detection finds what is; enforcement ensures what should be. In practice: find the missing uncertainty markers before they become confident hallucinations."*

| **Claim ID Format Guidance** | Hash-based IDs preferred, collision analysis for scale |
| **Body Structure Requirements** | HITL Verification Record section mandatory when claims exist |
| **New Validation Codes** | E-ST10, W-ST11, W-HC01, W-HC02, E-SC06 (FORMAT_SPEC); E-TB01-07 (SOT validation) |
| **Bundled Scripts** | `claim_id.py` and `document_hash.py` for deterministic computations |
---
## Specifications
This skill implements and references:
| Specification | Version | Location |
|---------------|---------|----------|
| Clarity Gate Format (Unified) | v2.1 | [docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md) |
**Note:** v2.0 unifies CGD and SOT into a single `.cgd.md` format. SOT is now a CGD with an optional `tier:` block.
---
## Validation Codes
Clarity Gate defines validation codes for structural and semantic checks per FORMAT_SPEC v2.1:
### HITL Claim Validation (§1.3.2-1.3.3)
| Code | Check | Severity |
|------|-------|----------|
| **W-HC01** | Partial `confirmed-by`/`confirmed-date` fields | WARNING |
| **W-HC02** | Vague source (e.g., "industry reports", "TBD") | WARNING |
| **E-SC06** | Schema error in `hitl-claims` structure | ERROR |
### Body Structure (§1.2.1)
| Code | Check | Severity |
|------|-------|----------|
| **E-ST10** | Missing `## HITL Verification Record` when claims exist | ERROR |
| **W-ST11** | Table rows don't match `hitl-claims` count | WARNING |
### SOT Table Validation (§3.1)
| Code | Check | Severity |
|------|-------|----------|
| **E-TB01** | No `## Verified Claims` section | ERROR |
| **E-TB02** | Table has no data rows | ERROR |
| **E-TB03** | Required columns missing | ERROR |
| **E-TB04** | Column order wrong | ERROR |
| **E-TB05** | Empty cell in required column | ERROR |
| **E-TB06** | Invalid date format in Verified column | ERROR |
| **E-TB07** | Verified date in future (beyond 24h grace) | ERROR |
**Note:** Additional validation codes may be defined in RFC-001 (clarification document) but are not part of the normative FORMAT_SPEC.
---
## Bundled Scripts
This skill includes Python scripts for deterministic computations per FORMAT_SPEC.
### scripts/claim_id.py
Computes stable, hash-based claim IDs for HITL tracking (per §1.3.4).
```bash
# Generate claim ID
python scripts/claim_id.py "Base price is $99/mo" "api-pricing/1"
# Output: claim-75fb137a
# Run test vectors
python scripts/claim_id.py --test
```
**Algorithm:**
1. Normalize text (strip + collapse whitespace)
2. Concatenate with location using pipe delimiter
3. SHA-256 hash, take first 8 hex chars
4. Prefix with "claim-"
**Test vectors:**
- `claim_id("Base price is $99/mo", "api-pricing/1")` → `claim-75fb137a`
- `claim_id("The API supports GraphQL", "features/1")` → `claim-eb357742`
### scripts/document_hash.py
Computes document SHA-256 hash per FORMAT_SPEC §2.2-2.4 with full canonicalization.
```bash
# Compute hash
python scripts/document_hash.py my-doc.cgd.md
# Output: 7d865e959b2466918c9863afca942d0fb89d7c9ac0c99bafc3749504ded97730
# Verify existing hash
python scripts/document_hash.py --verify my-doc.cgd.md
# Output: PASS: Hash verified: 7d865e...
# Run normalization tests
python scripts/document_hash.py --test
```
**Algorithm (per §2.2-2.4):**
1. Extract content between opening `---\n` and `<!-- CLARITY_GATE_END -->`
2. Remove `document-sha256` line from YAML frontmatter ONLY (with multiline continuation support)
3. Canonicalize:
- Strip trailing whitespace per line
- Collapse 3+ consecutive newlines to 2
- Normalize final newline (exactly 1 LF)
- UTF-8 NFC normalization
4. Compute SHA-256
**Cross-platform normalization:**
- BOM removed if present
- CRLF to LF (Windows)
- CR to LF (old Mac)
- Boundary detection (prevents hash computation on content outside CGD structure)
- Whitespace variations produce identical hashes (deterministic across platforms)
---
## The Key Distinction
Existing tools like UnScientify and HedgeHunter (CoNLL-2010) **detect** uncertainty markers already present in text ("Is uncertainty expressed?").
Clarity Gate **enforces** their presence where epistemically required ("Should uncertainty be expressed but isn't?").
| Tool Type | Question | Example |
|-----------|----------|---------|
| **Detection** | "Does this text contain hedges?" | UnScientify/HedgeHunter find "may", "possibly" |
| **Enforcement** | "Should this claim be hedged but isn't?" | Clarity Gate flags "Revenue will be $50M" |
---
## Critical Limitation
> **Clarity Gate verifies FORM, not TRUTH.**
>
> This skill checks whether claims are properly marked as uncertain—it cannot verify if claims are actually true.
>
> **Risk:** An LLM can hallucinate facts INTO a document, then "pass" Clarity Gate by adding source markers to false claims.
>
> **Solution:** HITL (Human-In-The-Loop) verification is **MANDATORY** before declaring PASS.
---
## When to Use
- Before ingesting documents into RAG systems
- Before sharing documents with other AI systems
- After writing specifications, state docs, or methodology descriptions
- When a document contains projections, estimates, or hypotheses
- Before publishing claims that haven't been validated
- When handing off documentation between LLM sessions
---
## The 9 Verification Points
### Relationship to Spec Suite
The 9 Verification Points guide **semantic review** — content quality checks that require judgment (human or AI). They answer questions like "Should this claim be hedged?" and "Are these numbers consistent?"
When review completes, output a CGD file conforming to [CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md). The C/S rules in [CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md) validate **file structure**, not semantic content.
**The connection:**
1. Semantic findings (9 points) determine what issues exist
2. Issues are recorded in CGD state fields (`clarity-status`, `hitl-status`, `hitl-pending-count`)
3. State consistency is enforced by structural rules (C7-C10)
*Example: If Point 5 (Data Consistency) finds conflicting numbers, you'd mark `clarity-status: UNCLEAR` until resolved. Rule C7 then ensures you can't claim `REVIEWED` while still `UNCLEAR`.*
---
### Epistemic Checks (Core Focus: Points 1-4)
**1. HYPOTHESIS vs FACT LABELING**
Every claim must be clearly marked as validated or hypothetical.
| Fails | Passes |
|-------|--------|
| "Our architecture outperforms competitors" | "Our architecture outperforms competitors [benchmark data in Table 3]" |
| "The model achieves 40% improvement" | "The model achieves 40% improvement [measured on dataset X]" |
**Fix:** Add markers: "PROJECTED:", "HYPOTHESIS:", "UNTESTED:", "(estimated)", "~", "?"
---
**2. UNCERTAINTY MARKER ENFORCEMENT**
Forward-looking statements require qualifiers.
| Fails | Passes |
|-------|--------|
| "Revenue will be $50M by Q4" | "Revenue is **projected** to be $50M by Q4" |
| "The feature will reduce churn" | "The feature is **expected** to reduce churn" |
**Fix:** Add "projected", "estimated", "expected", "designed to", "intended to"
---
**3. ASSUMPTION VISIBILITY**
Implicit assumptions that affect interpretation must be explicit.
| Fails | Passes |
|-------|--------|
| "The system scales linearly" | "The system scales linearly [assuming <1000 concurrent users]" |
| "Response time is 50ms" | "Response time is 50ms [under standard load conditions]" |
**Fix:** Add bracketed conditions: "[assuming X]", "[under conditions Y]", "[when Z]"
---
**4. AUTHORITATIVE-LOOKING UNVALIDATED DATA**
Tables with specific percentages and checkmarks look like measured data.
**Red flag:** Tables with specific numbers (89%, 95%, 100%) without sources
**Fix:** Add "(guess)", "(est.)", "?" to numbers. Add explicit warning: "PROJECTED VALUES - NOT MEASURED"
---
### Data Quality Checks (Complementary: Points 5-7)
**5. DATA CONSISTENCY**
Scan for conflicting numbers, dates, or facts within the document.
**Red flag:** "500 users" in one section, "750 users" in another
**Fix:** Reconcile conflicts or explicitly note the discrepancy with explanation.
---
**6. IMPLICIT CAUSATION**
Claims that imply causation without evidence.
**Red flag:** "Shorter prompts improve response quality" (plausible but unproven)
**Fix:** Reframe as hypothesis: "Shorter prompts MAY improve response quality (hypothesis, not validated)"
---
**7. FUTURE STATE AS PRESENT**
Describing planned/hoped outcomes as if already achieved.
**Red flag:** "The system processes 10,000 requests per second" (when it hasn't been built)
**Fix:** Use future/conditional: "The system is DESIGNED TO process..." or "TARGET: 10,000 rps"
---
### Verification Routing (Points 8-9)
**8. TEMPORAL COHERENCE**
Document dates and timestamps must be internally consistent and plausible.
| Fails | Passes |
|-------|--------|
| "Last Updated: December 2024" (when current is 2026) | "Last Updated: January 2026" |
| v1.0.0 dated 2024-12-23, v1.1.0 dated 2024-12-20 | Versions in chronological order |
**Sub-checks:**
1. Document date vs current date
2. Internal chronology (versions, events in order)
3. Reference freshness ("current", "now", "today" claims)
**Fix:** Update dates, add "as of [date]" qualifiers, flag stale claims
---
**9. EXTERNALLY VERIFIABLE CLAIMS**
Specific numbers that could be fact-checked should be flagged for verification.
| Type | Example | Risk |
|------|---------|------|
| Pricing | "Costs ~$0.005 per call" | API pricing changes |
| Statistics | "Papers average 15-30 equations" | May be wildly off |
| Rates/ratios | "40% of researchers use X" | Needs citation |
| Competitor claims | "No competitor offers Y" | May be outdated |
**Fix options:**
1. Add source with date
2. Add uncertainty marker
3. Route to HITL or external search
4. Generalize ("low cost" instead of "$0.005")
---
## The Verification Hierarchy
```
Claim Extracted --> Does Source of Truth Exist?
|
+---------------+---------------+
YES NO
| |
Tier 1: Automated Tier 2: HITL
Consistency & Verification Two-Round Verification
| |
PASS / BLOCK Round A → Round B → APPROVE / REJECT
```
### Tier 1: Automated Verification
**A. Internal Consistency**
- Figure vs. Text contradictions
- Abstract vs. Body mismatches
- Table vs. Prose conflicts
- Numerical consistency
**B. External Verification (Extension Interface)**
- User-provided connectors to structured sources
- Financial systems, Git commits, CRM, etc.
### Tier 2: Two-Round HITL Verification — MANDATORY
**Round A: Derived Data Confirmation**
- Claims from sources found in session
- Human confirms interpretation, not truth
**Round B: True HITL Verification**
- Claims needing actual verification
- No source found, human's own data, extrapolations
---
## CGD Output Format
When producing a Clarity-Gated Document, use this format per [CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md) v2.1:
```yaml
---
clarity-gate-version: 2.1
processed-date: 2026-01-12
processed-by: Claude + Human Review
clarity-status: CLEAR
hitl-status: REVIEWED
hitl-pending-count: 0
points-passed: 1-9
rag-ingestable: true # computed by validator - do not set manually
document-sha256: 7d865e959b2466918c9863afca942d0fb89d7c9ac0c99bafc3749504ded97730
hitl-claims:
- id: claim-75fb137a
text: "Revenue projection is $50M"
value: "$50M"
source: "Q3 planning doc"
location: "revenue-projections/1"
round: B
confirmed-by: Francesco
confirmed-date: 2026-01-12
---
# Document Title
[Document body with epistemic markers applied]
Claims like "Revenue will be $50M" become "Revenue is **projected** to be $50M *(unverified projection)*"
---
## HITL Verification Record
### Round A: Derived Data Confirmation
- Claim 1 (source) ✓
- Claim 2 (source) ✓
### Round B: True HITL Verification
| # | Claim | Status | Verified By | Date |
|---|-------|--------|-------------|------|
| 1 | [claim] | ✓ Confirmed | [name] | [date] |
<!-- CLARITY_GATE_END -->
Clarity Gate: CLEAR | REVIEWED
```
**Required CGD Elements (per spec):**
- YAML frontmatter with all required fields:
- `clarity-gate-version` — Tool version (no "v" prefix)
- `processed-date` — YYYY-MM-DD format
- `processed-by` — Processor name
- `clarity-status` — CLEAR or UNCLEAR
- `hitl-status` — PENDING, REVIEWED, or REVIEWED_WITH_EXCEPTIONS
- `hitl-pending-count` — Integer ≥ 0
- `points-passed` — e.g., `1-9` or `1-4,7,9`
- `hitl-claims` — List of verified claims (may be empty `[]`)
- End marker (HTML comment + status line):
```
<!-- CLARITY_GATE_END -->
Clarity Gate: <clarity-status> | <hitl-status>
```
- HITL verification record (if status is REVIEWED)
**Optional/Computed Fields:**
- `rag-ingestable` — **Computed by validators**, not manually set. Shows `true` only when `CLEAR | REVIEWED` with no exclusion blocks.
- `document-sha256` — Required. 64-char lowercase hex hash for integrity verification. See spec §2 for computation rules.
- `exclusions-coverage` — Optional. Fraction of body inside exclusion blocks (0.0–1.0).
**Escape Mechanism:** To write about markers like `*(estimated)*` without triggering parsing, wrap in backticks: `` `*(estimated)*` ``
### Claim Completion Status (v2.1)
Claim verification status is determined by field **presence**, not an explicit status field:
| State | `confirmed-by` | `confirmed-date` | Meaning |
|-------|----------------|------------------|----------|
| **PENDING** | absent | absent | Awaiting human verification |
| **VERIFIED** | present | present | Human has confirmed |
| *(invalid)* | present | absent | W-HC01: partial fields |
| *(invalid)* | absent | present | W-HC01: partial fields |
**Why no explicit status field?** Field presence is self-enforcing—you can't accidentally set status without providing who/when.
### Source Field Semantics (v2.1)
The `source` field meaning changes based on claim state:
| State | `source` Contains | Example |
|-------|-------------------|----------|
| **PENDING** | Where to verify (actionable) | `"Check Q3 planning doc"` |
| **VERIFIED** | What was found (evidence) | `"Q3 planning doc, page 12"` |
**Vague source detection (W-HC02):** Sources like `"industry reports"`, `"research"`, `"TBD"` trigger warnings.
### Claim ID Format (v2.1)
**General pattern:** `claim-[a-z0-9._-]{1,64}` (alphanumeric, dots, underscores, hyphens)
| Approach | Pattern | Example | Use Case |
|----------|---------|---------|----------|
| **Hash-based** (preferred) | `claim-[a-f0-9]{8,}` | `claim-75fb137a` | Deterministic, collision-resistant |
| **Sequential** | `claim-[0-9]+` | `claim-1`, `claim-2` | Simple documents |
| **Semantic** | `claim-[a-z0-9-]+` | `claim-revenue-q3` | Human-friendly |
**Collision probability:** At 1,000 claims with 8-char hex IDs: ~0.012%. For >1,000 claims, use 12+ hex characters.
**Recommendation:** Use hash-based IDs generated by `scripts/claim_id.py` for consistency and collision resistance.
---
## Exclusion Blocks
When content cannot be resolved (no SME available, legacy prose, etc.), mark it as excluded rather than leaving it ambiguous:
```markdown
<!-- CG-EXCLUSION:BEGIN id=auth-legacy-1 -->
Legacy authentication details that require SME review...
<!-- CG-EXCLUSION:END id=auth-legacy-1 -->
```
**Rules:**
- IDs must match: `[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]{0,63}`
- No nesting or overlapping blocks
- Each ID used only once
- Requires `hitl-status: REVIEWED_WITH_EXCEPTIONS`
- Must document `exceptions-reason` and `exceptions-ids` in frontmatter
**Important:** Documents with exclusion blocks are **not RAG-ingestable**. They're rejected entirely (no partial ingestion).
See [CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md §4](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md) for complete rules.
---
## SOT Validation
When validating a Source of Truth file, the skill checks both **format compliance** (per [CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md](../../docs/CLARITY_GATE_FORMAT_SPEC.md)) and **content quality** (the 9 points).
### Format Compliance (Structural Rules)
SOT documents are CGDs with a `tier:` block. They require a `## Verified Claims` section with a valid table.
| Code | Check | Severity |
|------|-------|----------|
| E-TB01 | No `## Verified Claims` section | ERROR |
| E-TB02 | Table has no data rows | ERROR |
| E-TB03 | Required columns missing (Claim, Value, Source, Verified) | ERROR |
| E-TB04 | Column order wrong (Claim not first or Verified not last) | ERROR |
| E-TB05 | Empty cell in required column | ERROR |
| E-TB06 | Invalid date format in Verified column | ERROR |
| E-TB07 | Verified date in future (beyond 24h grace) | ERROR |
### Content Quality (9 Points)
The 9 Verification Points apply to SOT content:
| Point | SOT Application |
|-------|-----------------|
| 1-4 | Check claims in `## Verified Claims` are actually verified |
| 5 | Check for conflicting values across tables |
| 6 | Check claims don't imply unsupported causation |
| 7 | Check table doesn't state futures as present |
| 8 | Check dates are chronologically consistent |
| 9 | Flag specific numbers for external check |
### SOT-Specific Requirements
- **Tier block required:** SOT is a CGD with `tier:` block containing `level`, `owner`, `version`, `promoted-date`, `promoted-by`
- **Structured claims table:** `## Verified Claims` section with columns: Claim, Value, Source, Verified
- **Table outside exclusions:** The verified claims table must NOT be inside an exclusion block
- **Staleness markers:** Use `[STABLE]`, `[CHECK]`, `[VOLATILE]`, `[SNAPSHOT]` in content
- `[STABLE]` — Safe to cite without rechecking
- `[CHECK]` — Verify before citing
- `[VOLATILE]` — Changes frequently; always verify
- `[SNAPSHOT]` — Point-in-time data; include date when citing
---
## Output Format
After running Clarity Gate, report:
```
## Clarity Gate Results
**Document:** [filename]
**Issues Found:** [number]
### Critical (will cause hallucination)
- [issue + location + fix]
### Warning (could cause equivocation)
- [issue + location + fix]
### Temporal (date/time issues)
- [issue + location + fix]
### Externally Verifiable Claims
| # | Claim | Type | Suggested Verification |
|---|-------|------|------------------------|
| 1 | [claim] | Pricing | [where to verify] |
---
## Round A: Derived Data Confirmation
- [claim] ([source])
Reply "confirmed" or flag any I misread.
---
## Round B: HITL Verification Required
| # | Claim | Why HITL Needed | Human Confirms |
|---|-------|-----------------|----------------|
| 1 | [claim] | [reason] | [ ] True / [ ] False |
---
**Would you like me to produce an annotated CGD version?**
---
**Verdict:** PENDING CONFIRMATION
```
---
## Severity Levels
| Level | Definition | Action |
|-------|------------|--------|
| **CRITICAL** | LLM will likely treat hypothesis as fact | Must fix before use |
| **WARNING** | LLM might misinterpret | Should fix |
| **TEMPORAL** | Date/time inconsistency detected | Verify and update |
| **VERIFIABLE** | Specific claim that could be fact-checked | Route to HITL or external search |
| **ROUND A** | Derived from witnessed source | Quick confirmation |
| **ROUND B** | Requires true verification | Cannot pass without confirmation |
| **PASS** | Clearly marked, no ambiguity, verified | No action needed |
---
## Quick Scan Checklist
| Pattern | Action |
|---------|--------|
| Specific percentages (89%, 73%) | Add source or mark as estimate |
| Comparison tables | Add "PROJECTED" header |
| "Achieves", "delivers", "provides" | Use "designed to", "intended to" if not validated |
| Checkmarks | Verify these are confirmed |
| "100%" anything | Almost always needs qualification |
| "Last Updated: [date]" | Check against current date |
| Version numbers with dates | Verify chronological order |
| "$X.XX" or "~$X" (pricing) | Flag for external verification |
| "averages", "typically" | Flag for source/citation |
| Competitor capability claims | Flag for external verification |
---
## What This Skill Does NOT Do
- Does not classify document types (use Stream Coding for that)
- Does not restructure documents
- Does not add deep links or references
- Does not evaluate writing quality
- **Does not check factual accuracy autonomously** (requires HITL)
