Citation Anchoring (regression)

Purpose: prevent a common failure mode: polishing rewrites text and accidentally moves citation markers into a different ### subsection, breaking claim→evidence alignment.

Inputs

  • output/DRAFT.md
  • output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl (baseline; created by draft-polisher on first run)

Outputs

  • output/CITATION_ANCHORING_REPORT.md (PASS/FAIL + drift examples)

Baseline policy

  • draft-polisher captures a baseline once per run: output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl.
  • Subsequent polish runs should keep per-H3 citation sets stable.

Workflow (analysis-only)

Role:

  • Auditor: only checks and reports; does not edit.

Steps:

  1. Load the baseline anchors.
  2. Parse the current output/DRAFT.md into ### subsections and extract citation keys per subsection.
  3. Compare current sets to baseline sets:
  • keys added/removed within a subsection
  • keys that migrated across subsections
  1. Write output/CITATION_ANCHORING_REPORT.md:
  • - Status: PASS only if no drift is detected
  • otherwise, - Status: FAIL with a short diff table + examples

Notes

If you intentionally restructure across subsections:

  • delete output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl and regenerate a new baseline (then treat that as the new regression anchor).

Troubleshooting

Issue: baseline anchor file is missing

Fix:

  • Run draft-polisher once to generate output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl, then rerun the anchoring check.

Issue: citations intentionally moved across subsections

Fix:

  • Delete output/citation_anchors.prepolish.jsonl and regenerate a new baseline (then treat that as the new regression anchor).
