Hackathon #3 Asks¶

Last updated: 2026-06-28

These asks translate Hackathon #3's validation theme into concrete fact-oracle, verifier, and evidence-building projects.

Fact And Verification Ideas¶

Ask	What to build
ClaimCheck API	General fact oracle with claim, context, verdict, confidence, rationale, and sources.
DAO proposal fact oracle	Checks governance claims, proposal summaries, and cited facts before voting.
News and social verifier	Reviews social posts or news claims, separates factual claims from opinion, and returns confidence.
Research scanner	Extracts claims from papers/articles and marks support, conflict, or missing evidence.
Code-change risk oracle	Reviews diffs, release notes, or PRs and highlights risk, tests, and likely blast radius.
Contract/TOS explainer	Summarizes terms, flags confusing clauses, and checks whether claims match the document.
Agent watchdog	Verifies another AI output and returns pass/fail/unclear with evidence.
Market narrative checker	Compares market claims against multiple sources and produces a structured confidence summary.
Proof of reading	Checks whether a summary faithfully represents a source document.
On-chain truth widget	Simple yes/no oracle pattern for verifiable on-chain or app-facing claims.

Expected Shape¶

Each verifier should return a structured result:

{
  "verdict": "true | false | partial | unclear",
  "confidence": "low | medium | high",
  "rationale": "short explanation",
  "evidence": ["source or artifact references"],
  "limitations": ["known gaps or assumptions"]
}
