# source-grounding-audit — Input Tracing Grounding Audit
> Just because an artifact looks plausible doesn't mean it's grounded in source. plausible ≠ grounded.
When AI generates artifacts without reading the source, those artifacts look like domain knowledge but are actually **Phantom Claims** coming from LLM weights. This skill back-traces each claim in the artifact to the declared source to explicitly mark Phantoms.
## Role Separation from steel-quench
| Dimension | steel-quench | source-grounding-audit |
|---|---|---|
| **Attack target** | Output patterns (self-declarations, cushion language, reason for existence) | Input tracing (is the claim in the source?) |
| **Core question** | "Is this structure flawed?" | "Where did this content come from?" |
| **Activation timing** | All-angle quench just before completion | Immediately after source-based artifact generation or at point of suspicion |
| **Primary attack vector** | Bus factor, self-reference, platform obsolescence | Phantom Claim, source not read, fabricated branching conditions |
| **Representative pattern** | "Declaration only, no evidence" | "Number in TC that doesn't exist in source" |
**Can be used together**: steel-quench Wave 1 real-code-based attack + source-grounding-audit Phantom marking can be run sequentially in the same session. But do not mix the roles of the two skills.
