VE Evidence Auditor
Use this skill to turn project claims into an evidence-backed claim matrix before publishing them in a resume, portfolio, report, or internal best-practice document.
Inputs
Accept any of:
- Resume bullets or project descriptions.
- GitHub repositories, releases, pull requests, issues, CI runs, or portfolio pages.
- Work logs, adoption reports, Skill outputs, SOPs, and demo artifacts.
- A CSV claim ledger with
claim,source_kind,evidence_level,verdict,evidence_status,evidence_url,resume_wording, andboundary.
Workflow
- Break the text into atomic claims. Each claim should assert one thing only.
- Attach a concrete evidence URL or file path to every claim.
- Grade the source:
source_kind:platform-record,repository-artifact,third-party,self-reported, ormixed.evidence_level:L4for directly checkable platform/repository records;L3for multiple independent sources;L2for one credible third-party source;L1for self-reported or weak evidence.verdict:confirmed,largely-credible,doubtful, ordebunked.
- Mark evidence status:
verified: public link or local artifact proves the claim.open: submitted but not merged, approved, or accepted.pending-review: waiting for maintainer, manager, or business review.missing: no evidence yet.
- Classify claim level:
resume-ready: verified evidence exists and wording is not overstated.boundary-only: evidence exists, but wording must mention open or pending status.do-not-claim: evidence is missing, wording implies unearned completion, or the claim depends on confidential/internal facts not available.
- Rewrite risky claims into safe wording.
- Keep a "do not claim yet" section for tempting but unsupported statements.

## Do Not Claim Yet
- <claim>: <reason>
Quality Checks
- Never upgrade
openorpending-reviewPRs into merged contribution claims. - Never claim internal deployment, supplier data handling, or business impact unless there is approved evidence.
- Prefer "submitted PR", "published demo", "verified by CI", and "review-pending" over vague prestige wording.
- Treat self-reported or marketing-only evidence as
L1unless it is backed by a directly checkable platform record. - If a claim has no URL, artifact, or owner-verifiable source, keep it out of the resume.
- Preserve the difference between public portfolio evidence and real enterprise work.
