Rebuttal Documentation
Document counter-claims and rebuttals that challenge existing claims.
Tool
CC file write + vault_add_edge
Protocol
- Write
wiki/claims/<rebuttal-slug>.md with frontmatter:
type: claim
claim-type: matching the type of the claim being rebutted
confidence: initial confidence based on rebuttal evidence
rebuttal-of: wikilink to the target claim
- Body: the rebuttal stated clearly, with reasoning for why it contradicts the target
- Add edge:
contradicts (rebuttal → target claim)
- Add edge:
derived_from (rebuttal → source providing the rebuttal)
- Inline wikilinks: For each edge created, ensure the rebuttal page body contains
[[dir/slug]] pointing to the target (dir/slug = target path minus .md). Place inline at semantically relevant location. Skip if already present.
HARD-GATE
Must specify exactly which claim is being rebutted and the type of contradiction (direct negation, scope limitation, alternative explanation, or undermining evidence).
Yield
Returns: { path: string, target_claim: string, contradiction_type: string }
