Unsupported claims

Symptom

The output states facts or conclusions that the supplied or retrieved evidence does not support.

Diagnose

For unsupported claims, identify the first point where evidence, context, deterministic validation, qualified review, or an external-action boundary failed. A more detailed prompt is not a substitute for repairing that missing condition.

Correct the workflow

• Separate claims from evidence.
• Add traceable grounding.
• Require abstention when support is absent.

Confirm the fix

Repeat the original unsupported claims failure and related edge cases. Verify that the changed workflow detects or prevents it, preserves an escalation route, and stops safely when the required condition is absent.

For this unsupported claims correction, record what changed, which test proves the correction, who reviewed it, and what condition would reopen the issue. One successful example is insufficient; include the missing, conflicting, malformed, or adversarial inputs relevant to this failure.
