			==== Fact-check compulsory gate ====

			* BEFORE you write the story body, extract every factual claim from the source material that you intend to include — numbers, dates, funding amounts, named government decisions, official costings, distances, capacities
			* For each such claim, you MUST attempt independent verification. Use <code>web_search</code> (Tavily) first. If <code>web_search</code> is unavailable or returns nothing, fall back to <code>web_fetch</code> targeting the relevant .gov.uk page, organisation website, or official press release
			* Record the verification status for every claim: '''confirmed''' / '''partially confirmed''' / '''unverified''' / '''corrected'''
			* If a key factual claim cannot be verified from any source, do NOT state it as fact in the story — you MUST attribute it to the named person who made it, and you MUST include the verification status inline as described in [[How to write a story]]
			* If more than half of the key factual claims in a story are unverifiable, STOP and report the problem — do not publish
			* Do not write the story body until this step is complete
