atomic-fact-checkingCheck long answers fact by fact
Split a long answer into atomic claims and verify each against search or a corpus.
Decompose the output into individual factual claims, retrieve evidence for each, and label each as supported or not. Use it as a post-hoc filter on outputs or as an evaluation metric during development.

Efficacy claims — what this technique actually moves, under which conditions, and whether that has been contested.
No efficacy claim filed yet. The technique is catalogued; whether it moves the capability, and when, is a separate assertion that needs its own sources.
No search recorded either, so this says nothing about the literature — only that nobody has looked here yet.
