radar-source-verifylisted

Verify a signal or evidence candidate for the AI Radar ledger: open primary sources, pin exact dates and authors, check source independence, and classify the result as citable evidence or an unverified observation_queue item. Use whenever adding evidence to TRENDS.md, promoting a queue item, or fact-checking a claim found in search results.

# Verify a source for the ledger Goal: every evidence line in `TRENDS.md` has (a) a URL that was actually opened this session, (b) a real date, (c) one line of context. ## Procedure 1. **Find** candidates with the `tavily-search` skill (`--include-domains arxiv.org,github.com,huggingface.co` for primary sources, `--time-range` for recency). Search snippets are never citable on their own. 2. **Open** each candidate with the `tavily-extract` skill. Opened = citable. 3. **Pin dates** — by source type: - Date by the NEWS EVENT: the evidence-line date is the date of whatever makes the item worth logging now — v1 for a new paper, the acceptance or latest-version date for an older paper that just got accepted/revised, the release date for software. Keep the other dates in the context line, e.g. "(v1 2025-11-12; accepted ACL 2026, v4 2026-04-16)" with the line dated 2026-04-16. This keeps the ledger's freshness machine-readable. - arXiv: `curl -sL 'https://export.arxiv.org/api/query?id_list=ID1,ID2'` gives exact v1/latest dates and the full author list (the abs page often hides them from extraction). Use https, not http. - GitHub: cite the latest release tag and its date, not the access date. - Hugging Face org pages: "updated X days ago" → compute the estimate and write "(date estimated from the org page)". - Undated pages: "(undated, accessed YYYY-MM-DD)". 4. **Independence check** (for the ≥3-sources trend bar): sourc
