Claude Code Knowledge Pack7/10/2026
Overview
Apply Chain-of-Verification (CoVe) prompting to improve response accuracy through self-verification.
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Invocation
If $ARGUMENTS is provided: Apply the CoVe verification process to answer the given question with systematic fact-checking.
If $ARGUMENTS is empty: Apply CoVe to verify the previous response in the conversation, generating verification questions and reconciling any errors found.
Process
Invoke the kk:chain-of-verification skill and follow the 4-step workflow in chain-of-verification-process.md:
- Generate Initial Answer (or use previous response if verifying)
- Create 3-5 Verification Questions targeting potential errors
- Answer questions independently without referencing the initial answer
- Reconcile findings and produce the final verified answer
Examples
/kk:chain-of-verification What is the time complexity of Python's sorted()?
/kk:chain-of-verification
(Use after receiving a response to verify it)
