Phase 3: Report
Generate a human-readable audit report and present to the user for review before applying corrections.
What This Phase Does
- Merge three-layer findings: mechanical + Gemini per-footnote + Claude cross-footnote review (mechanical > Claude > Gemini priority — see audit-check merge rules)
- Categorize by issue type and severity
- Flag items needing manual review (low-confidence cross-refs, ambiguous citations)
- Generate
scratch/AUDIT_REPORT.md
- Present summary to user
Three-Layer Merge Priority
Mechanical > Claude cross-review > Gemini per-footnote
- Mechanical findings (signal italic, terminal periods, Id. chains, small caps patterns) are deterministic and must never be dropped
- Claude cross-review adds cross-footnote patterns (supra chains, hereinafter consistency) and filters Gemini false positives
- Gemini per-footnote adds individual source type classification and abbreviation checks
Report Structure
# Bluebook Audit Report
## Summary
- Total footnotes: N
- Clean: N (XX%)
- Issues found: N across M footnotes
## Fix Counts by Category
| Category | Count | Auto-fixable |
|----------|-------|-------------|
| Journal name small caps | N | Yes |
| Book title small caps | N | Yes |
| Cross-reference resolution | N | Yes (high confidence) |
| Id. chain errors | N | Partial |
| Signal formatting | N | Yes |
| Terminal periods | N | Yes |
| Typeface errors (other) | N | Manual |
## Issues by Footnote
[sorted by footnote number]
## Items Needing Manual Review
[low-confidence cross-refs, ambiguous citations, judgment calls]
## Correct As-Is (Gemini False Positives)
[Items Gemini flagged but are actually correct, with reasoning]
[Group by source type: SEC releases (roman), exec orders (roman), etc.]
[Reference: audit-patterns.md Source Type Typeface Reference table]
Why "Correct As-Is" Matters
Many Gemini suggestions are wrong — especially for non-standard source types (SEC releases, exec orders, working paper designations). Documenting WHY these are correct:
- Prevents re-flagging if someone re-runs the audit
- Forces the reviewer to consciously evaluate each judgment call
- Creates a record of the source type classification decisions
Gate: Exit Report
This is a user gate. The workflow pauses here.
Do NOT proceed to corrections without user acknowledgment.
Next Phase
After user approval:
Read ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../../skills/bluebook-audit/skills/audit-correct/SKILL.md and follow its instructions.
