# Research Claim Ledger

> ClawHub skill-build case study for turning research drafts, source packets, literature matrices, or reviewer notes into source-backed claim ledgers.

## Summary
Research Claim Ledger is a narrow public ClawHub skill for academic and technical writing review. It avoids the over-broad promise of a full research suite and focuses on one trust-building artifact: a claim-by-claim ledger that marks each sentence as supported, weakly-supported, overclaimed, wrong-source, missing-locator, stale-source, inaccessible, unsupported, or needing human review. The public case study compares this narrower wedge against broad academic-agent workflows and frames the deliverable as a receipt a writer can share with a supervisor, coauthor, or reviewer.

## Key Features
- Turns draft sections, literature matrices, notes, citation lists, source packets, or reviewer comments into a structured claim ledger
- Separates supported claims from overclaims, missing locators, stale sources, inaccessible evidence, and human-review cases
- Keeps the first release instruction-only with no bundled scraping helper or hidden dependency surface
- Positions the skill as a small evidence receipt rather than a paper-writing, plagiarism, legal, medical, or financial review tool
