Research Claim Ledgerv1.0.0

A graduate student or postdoc has a draft manuscript and needs to verify that all factual, numerical, and causal claims are properly supported by citations. They use the Claim Ledger to extract claims, map them to sources, and identify overclaimed or unsupported statements before submitting to a journal.

A researcher receives reviewer comments questioning the validity of certain claims. They use the 'repair' scope to focus only on flagged claims, quickly assess support, and generate a repair plan with safer wording or additional evidence to address reviewer concerns.

A faculty member or research fellow is writing a grant proposal and needs to demonstrate that their claims about research gaps and trends are well-supported. They use the ledger to create a traceable claim-to-source table that can be shared with coauthors or included in the proposal appendices.

A PhD student compiling a literature review captures claims from multiple papers and wants to ensure each claim is properly attributed and not overblown. They use the ledger to synthesize sources and flag any unsupported statements before writing the final review.

A think tank analyst writes a policy brief with recommendations based on research findings. They use the Claim Ledger to audit the strength of evidence behind each policy claim, ensuring that recommendations are not overstated and that sources are recent and relevant.
