Claim Evidence Traceback Auditor helps you trace a statement back to its original evidence instead of relying on repeated citations or paraphrases. It is designed for situations where a claim appears in a report, article, or deck, and you need to know exactly which source supports it. This is especially useful for source tracing in research-heavy workflows.
The prompt is ideal for journalists, analysts, and research teams who need to verify attribution chains and detect citation drift. It asks the model to identify the most direct source, determine whether the claim is well supported, and note any gaps between the original evidence and the current wording. That makes it easier to catch overstatement, missing context, or unsupported extrapolation before publication.
Customize it by providing the claim in {{CLAIM_TEXT}} and the supporting materials in {{SOURCE_PACK}}. Add {{TRACE_DEPTH}} to control how far back the model should search through citations or references, and use {{RISK_LEVEL}} to define how cautious the output should be. The result is a traceability report that shows where the claim came from, how strong the support is, and whether the wording should be revised.
