Avoid turning plausible matches into confirmed records.
Practical procedure
- List the minimum evidence required for inclusion and the reasons a candidate should be excluded. Apply the same criteria to every candidate.
- Inspect identifier, effective date and scope in each source passage. Record conflicts rather than picking the value that makes the collection look more complete.
- Keep accepted, rejected and unresolved candidates in separate result sections. Retain the evidence reference alongside the decision.
Build an approved evidence path
GoCux Research works with Knowledge sources in the selected project. A plan separates the question and ordered steps from the source allowlist. Creating the plan records a draft; it does not approve or execute the work. Review the actual source selection before approving, because an empty allowlist permits no source and an execution request cannot expand an approved plan.
Contract example
Developer examples below describe routes on an authorized, configured GoCux control-plane base URL. They are request shapes or operation references, not claims that a particular public hostname exposes the API. Use the workspace for the corresponding human workflow; availability and permissions depend on the actual deployment.
POST /research-plans — example request body
{
"projectId": "project-id",
"title": "Review documented renewal conditions",
"question": "What renewal conditions are supported by these documents?",
"steps": [
"Find the renewal terms and their effective dates"
],
"allowedSourceIds": [
"source-id"
]
}Inspect the result
Read the saved plan before deciding. After approval and execution, retrieve its findings and inspect the cited source chunks. A finding supported by a quotation is different from a question for which no source was found. Keep that difference in the final report and in any downstream table.
What to keep explicit
A model-generated candidate is a suggestion for review. It becomes a supported entry only when the selected evidence satisfies the collection’s stated criteria.
Handle incomplete and refused work
An unapproved plan cannot execute. A 409 can mean the state or expected version changed; reread before deciding again. A 503 means the research store is unavailable, not that research found no evidence. Access is scoped to the authenticated company; knowing an identifier does not grant another company access.
