Claim-heavy niches - finance, health, history, science, travel - need grounded citations or the script generator hallucinates. A Source Pack is the bundle of research attached to a topic before a script gets written.
The Pack travels with the topic. The script generator reads it. Cited facts appear in the output verbatim; uncited claims get flagged.
Anatomy of a Source Pack
Each Pack has three tiers:
- Primary sources. Official documents, original reporting, peer-reviewed studies. High confidence.
- Secondary sources. Reputable summaries (Wikipedia, established trade press). Medium confidence.
- Low-confidence sources. Reddit threads, blog posts, anecdotes. Cite cautiously or not at all.
Building one in five minutes
For most topics you need three to five sources. Paste URLs into the Source Pack panel; the system extracts the key claims; you tag each claim with confidence; the script generator does the rest.
What the script generator does with it
The output is structured around your sources. Each claim in the script references which source supported it. Lines without source support get marked LOW-CONFIDENCE so you can rewrite them or cut them before publish.
