# Quote Attribution Verifier

Get a quote-by-quote evidence table and corrections.

## Requirements

Provide the draft and source passages or accessible source URLs.

## Workflow

1. Extract every direct quotation and the person, date and publication attributed to it.
2. Locate the exact wording in a primary source; preserve a page, timestamp or stable link.
3. Distinguish exact matches, disclosed omissions, paraphrases and unsupported quotations.
4. Check whether surrounding context changes the meaning and whether the named speaker is correct.
5. Offer a supported correction without silently rewriting someone’s words inside quotation marks.

## Worked example

Read `examples/input.txt` and `examples/expected.txt` before adapting the workflow.

## Acceptance checks

Flag the numeric difference and preserve the source wording; an inaccessible source is unverified, not confirmed false.

## Limits

Search snippets and secondary repetitions are not substitutes for the original source.

Worked example included. Model-specific performance and vendor compatibility have not been benchmarked.
