Is it true?

01 · The problem

The agent will state a date, a name, or a cause with a straight face. If you did not give that fact, it may have guessed.

02 · The prompt

Ask it to mark each claim: given by you, generally known, or uncertain. Uncertain claims should not look like facts.

Sort the claims

Read this answer. For each sentence, label it Given, Known, or Uncertain. If Uncertain, say what would confirm it.
Answer: “Mara at Northline confirmed Friday in writing. Pallet delays are usually weather. We should order twice as much next time.”
03 · Try it

You did not give Friday-in-writing or the weather. Watch those labels.

Illustrative answer — written for this lesson, not a live model

1. Uncertain — confirmation in writing was not in the brief; check the inbox. 2. Uncertain — “usually weather” is a guess; ask Mara. 3. Uncertain — a recommendation, not a fact; decide separately.

04 · What you made

A way to strip confidence from guesses. If you did not supply it, do not ship it.
