Description
Attach a stated confidence-source label to a claim.
Evidence records distinguish claims, source origins, confidence labels, logical scope and access status. Repeated citations may share an origin rather than provide independent support; an unknown origin is not proof of independence. A recorded support or witness link does not establish entailment, truth or a valid inference.
Attach a stated confidence-source label to a claim.
When to use this tool
Use Claim Confidence Source Label when checking the stated evidence, source, confidence or logical-label convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter claimId, reportedConfidence, confidenceSource. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require nonempty claim/source labels and reportedConfidence in [0,1]. Format claim; reported confidence=value [source].1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| claimId | Claim Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| reportedConfidence | Reported Confidence | Required. Finite number; minimum 0; maximum 1. |
| confidenceSource | Confidence Source | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| label | Formatted supplied record wording; no independent validation of its substantive meaning. | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

"input": {

"reportedConfidence": 0.7,
"confidenceSource": "Panel A"
},
"output": {
"label": "C17; reported confidence=0.7 [Panel A]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The number is a reported credence, not a calibrated probability, verified evidence strength or a truth assessment.
- 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.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Inspect original evidence and use appropriate complete logical/statistical analysis, preserving uncertainty, provenance and applicable access/reuse permissions.
