Fact Check

jamie-bitflight/fact-check

Verifies claims in backlog items, skill documentation, or plugin content against primary sources using web lookups. Spawns parallel verification agents that must use WebFetch/WebSearch/gh — training data recall is explicitly rejected as evidence. Produces VERIFIED/REFUTED/INCONCLUSIVE verdicts with citations. Use when items are marked UNVERIFIED or when verifying tool API claims, CLI flags, or documented software behavior.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take jamie-bitflight/fact-check from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
