Correction Propagation

Correction Propagation is a skill for Claude Code from ralfyishere/rules-with-receipts. It costs 139 tokens per session (1,512 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for finding and updating every copy of a published claim after it has been corrected, withdrawn, replaced, or shown to be wrong.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search for a corrected claim, mark or replace each occurrence, and check that no unaddressed copy remains.
Why use it?
It prevents outdated claims from remaining in related documents, repositories, mirrors, indexes, or other places where readers may still rely on them.

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

Correction Propagation 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 9d ago.

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.

Correction Propagation

Purpose

The pack can MAKE claims (verification-discipline) and ATTACK them (adversarial-verify), but nothing owns RETRACTING one after it has spread. A claim rarely lives in one place: the same number, verdict, or headline gets restated in sibling docs, other repos, the public mirror, READMEs, indexes, issue trackers, and memory files. When that claim is corrected — downgraded, superseded, reversed, disproved — fixing the doc you happened to be looking at leaves every other copy asserting the old, now-wrong version. Readers land on the stale one and act on it.

This skill makes correction a sweep, not a spot-edit: name the claim's distinctive greppable tokens, enumerate every surface that could restate it, grep them all, banner or supersede each hit top-of-file first and dated, then re-grep to prove the sweep is clean. Only then is the correction done. It is the difference between "I fixed the README" and "the string '3/3' now appears in three repos, each bannered or deleted, re-grep returns only bannered hits."

When to use this skill

  • You just corrected, retracted, downgraded, or reversed a claim you had published.
  • A metric changed value, a status flipped (confirmed → disproved), or a conclusion reversed.
  • A benchmark, number, or verdict you're fixing is restated somewhere else too.
  • Someone asks "did the correction propagate?" or "is this still cited anywhere?"
  • Closeout of any session where a correction happened.
  • A claim that appears in more than one repo, doc, mirror, or memory file.

When NOT to use

  • The claim never left one file and nothing restates it — a single edit is the whole job.
  • You're making or grading a fresh claim, not changing one already out — that's verification-discipline / empirical-validation.
  • The change is additive (new claim) and contradicts nothing previously published.
  • Pure session-context staleness with no cross-artifact surfaces — that's memory-hygiene.
