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:

  1. Generate Initial Answer (or use previous response if verifying)
  2. Create 3-5 Verification Questions targeting potential errors
  3. Answer questions independently without referencing the initial answer
  4. 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)
