ground-truth-gate

ground-truth-gate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CALLE-AI/awesome-phone-call-agents. It costs 91 tokens per session (3,101 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision step for checking whether a physical-world fact needs a phone call before it is stated as true. It compares the available evidence with the exact question, gives a provisional answer when appropriate, and uses a disclosed call to confirm the fact with the authoritative person.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify facts such as stock at a particular branch, current availability, advertised price, or whether a slot is open today.
Why use it?
Online information may be stale, too broad, or about the wrong branch, item, price, or time. This prevents an unsupported claim from becoming a confident answer and only treats positive, relevant evidence as confirmation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ground-truth-gate scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/demo_card.py, scripts/gate.py, scripts/mock_calle.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Ground Truth Gate

Overview

Some facts are not on the web. They live in one human's head, behind a phone number: whether the part is on the shelf at this branch, whether the unit is still available at the advertised price, whether the slot is really open today.

An agent asked for such a fact has three options, and the first two both fail the user. It can assert from stale text, which produces a confident wrong answer. It can hedge and tell the user to go call, which hands the work straight back. The third option is to gate the claim: answer provisionally now, place one disclosed call to the party that actually knows, and correct the record when the call lands.

Core principle: absence of evidence is never evidence. A claim is released as fact only on positive evidence from an authoritative source, and only when the abstention gate agrees.

When To Use

  • The agent is about to state a physical-world fact its sources cannot currently support, and it has not yet decided whether calling is justified.
  • The evidence is stale, or its scope does not match the question asked. Text saying an item is "in stock at Northgate Appliance" does not answer "in stock at the Bellevue branch today".
  • A wrong assertion is expensive and asymmetric: a wasted trip, a wired deposit, a missed deadline.
  • The authoritative party is known and reachable by phone, and the user asked for the answer.

When Not To Use

  • The decision to call is already made. Use verify-by-phone, which owns disclosed verification calls and the calibrated abstention this skill defers to.
  • The fact is cheap to be wrong about, or a real API answers it authoritatively. Both are disclose or answer outcomes here, not calls.
  • No authoritative phone contact was supplied by the user. Guessing a number is a blocker, never a default.
  • The user has not asked for the answer. This skill never places a call to satisfy the agent's own curiosity.
  • The question is time-critical to someone's safety. An emergency is not a claim to triage.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

ground-truth-gate is a skill published in the GitHub repository CALLE-AI/awesome-phone-call-agents (109 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 91 tokens to every session and 3,101 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-15.
