Forces every code-related claim to include file:line citations. No citation means the claim must be verified or removed. Use when building documentation, writing code reviews, or any output that others will rely on.

Complete methodology for preventing AI hallucinations. Use when accuracy is critical and you need Claude to verify before claiming, cite before asserting, and admit uncertainty instead of guessing.
Assign confidence scores (0-100) to every claim in a response. Helps users understand which parts are verified facts and which are educated guesses. Use when the user needs to know how much to trust each part of the answer.
Forces Claude to extract exact quotes from files before making claims about them. Prevents hallucinations by grounding every statement in actual text from the codebase. Use when working with large files or unfamiliar code.
Verify every claim from multiple independent angles -- code, docs, tests, git history. Use when you need high confidence that something is correct before acting on it.
Multi-angle review of responses before delivery. Audits from 4 perspectives -- factual accuracy, logical consistency, completeness, and safety. Use for high-stakes responses where errors have real consequences.
Ensure every factual claim in a response is backed by verifiable evidence from the codebase, documentation, or external sources. Use when preparing technical documentation, code reviews, or any output where accuracy is non-negotiable.

Every code claim needs a citation. file:line or it didn't happen.
When you mention any of these, include the file path and line number:
Standard: file:line
Example: src/auth.ts:42
With range: file:line-line
Example: src/auth.ts:42-58
With context: description at file:line
Example: "the validateToken function at src/auth.ts:42"
Before sending a response, scan it for uncited claims:
Bad: "The authentication middleware checks for valid tokens." Good: "The authentication middleware at src/middleware/auth.ts:15-30 checks for valid tokens by calling validateToken()."
Bad: "There's a bug in the error handling." Good: "The catch block at src/api/users.ts:87 swallows the error without logging it."
Bad: "The config file has the wrong timeout." Good: "The timeout at config/production.json:23 is set to 5000ms, which may be too low for this API call."
