Description
Join a source identifier and supplied context note.
Critical annotations distinguish source voices, editorial insertions, omission markers, edition locators and caller-assigned interpretations. Case preservation and half-open text offsets describe representation rather than meaning. A bracketed token or source-role label does not verify faithful quotation, authority, an argument or its historical context.
Join a source identifier and supplied context note.
When to use this tool
Use Critical Source Context Note when you already have sourceId, contextNote and need to join a source identifier and supplied context note.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter sourceId, contextNote. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read note. Use the output convention below.
Require both strings nonempty; return sourceId: contextNote with a literal colon and space.1

{
"input": {
"sourceId": "S17",
"contextNote": "Quoted from revised edition"
},
"output": {
"note": "S17: Quoted from revised edition"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The tool does not retrieve the source, evaluate the note, check interpretation, establish authority or verify quotation context.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Read the original passage and relevant edition with the stated interpretive and editorial conventions. Verify source context and attribution before reuse; local span labels and interpretation-objection pair keys organize records without evaluating the argument or granting quotation rights.
