Blind the Investigator

Give investigators the question, vocabulary, and evidence source; withhold the wanted answer and framing.

  • Research from neutral questions, never the task framing; surface missing context as an open question, not guessed intent.
  • Give scouts only verbatim question text and stated context: add no framing, goal, or intent speculation.
  • Give verification helpers neutral, falsifiable claims with file:line; omit your verdict, severity, and reasoning, but include any rule that makes a violation falsifiable.
  • Assign one fresh skeptic per claim.
  • Treat leakage as a critical defect: stop and report.
  • Apply principle-generator-evaluator for review-gate fresh context, no shared history, and one-claim-one-fresh-judge separation.
