Blog Fact Check
blog-fact-check
Extracts every factual claim and every external hyperlink from a post, verifies each against independent credible sources (and, for links, by actually fetching the destination), and scores them on journalistic accuracy and link-integrity scales. Problematic claims get walked through one by one - rewrite, mark as opinion, leave, remove, or fix the URL - and every decision lands in a persistent report so re-runs after edits only re-check what changed.
What it does
- Extracts every factual claim and external link from the post
- Verifies claims against independent credible sources and fetches every link
- Scores claims and links on accuracy and link-integrity scales
- Walks through problem items with clear options for each
- Maintains a persistent per-post report in fact-checks/ across re-runs

- 01Extract claims and links from the MDX post
- 02Verify each against the web and score it
- 03Review problem items with the author, one at a time
- 04Record findings and decisions in fact-checks/{slug}.md
