Smart Sourcing
Intelligent sourcing that requires citations only when the cost is justified by the value of verification.
Philosophy
Full sourcing is prohibitively expensive (10-16x token increase). Smart sourcing targets high-value claims where verification materially improves accuracy.
When to Source
REQUIRE Sources
| Claim Type | Example | Why Source |
|---|---|---|
| Version numbers | "Python 3.12 added..." | Versions change, easy to verify |
| Performance claims | "30% faster than..." | Quantitative claims need evidence |
| Security recommendations | "Use bcrypt for..." | Security advice must be current |
| API specifications | "The function accepts..." | APIs change between versions |
| Release dates | "Released in Q4 2025" | Factual, verifiable |
| Pricing/limits | "Free tier allows 1000 requests" | Business terms change |
