Methodology

Provenance before persuasion

SignalForge treats interpretations as hypotheses. Material claims without evidence links stay unsupported. Discovery URLs are not the same as verified claim support.

Provenance lifecycle

  • Unverified — no usable locator, or fictional demo only.
  • Source located — URL/identifier found; review incomplete.
  • Evidence reviewed — human review recorded; support not yet established.
  • Supported — linked via verified source to a supported fact/interpretation.
  • Conflicting — contradictions or mixed support.
  • Insufficient — cannot establish verified claim support.

Ask Signal honesty

Queries run through a deterministic matcher over the seed corpus with rate limiting and abstention (including prompt-injection style inputs and patient-advice requests). The UI never claims a live model.

What we do not claim

Regulatory compliance, production pharmacovigilance validation, live proprietary feeds, or clinical decision support. See About and AUDIT.md in the repository.
