Multi Source Required For Load Bearing Claims

Category: Security  ·  Sub-category: security-misc  ·  Last updated:
Architecture decisions, security claims, and performance claims must cite at least two independent sources or escalate the gap to the user. A load-bearing claim is one that, if wrong, causes downstream cascade — choosing the wrong session-store changes every middleware that touches the session; picking bcrypt vs argon2 sets a security baseline for every credential write; assuming an O(log n) lookup when the implementation is O(n) breaks every consumer at scale. Silent single-source picks on these claims are the canonical rationalization-trap shape per K2 §3.3 and link to the rationalization-trap-check skill in the knowledge-hygiene plugin (commit b28aa0f). Cites K2 §3.3 (conflict surfacing) and reuses the multi-source-research pipeline. Use when: writing an architectural decision into a spec or design doc, asserting a security primitive selection in code or review, asserting a performance characteristic that downstream consumers will depend on, reviewing a PR whose description or commits introduce a load-bearing assertion, dispatching a subagent that will produce a design doc or ADR. Skip when: the claim is non-load-bearing (typo fix, comment update, docstring rewording), a single authoritative source is genuinely sufficient and explicitly documented as such (e.g., a function's signature read from its own source file via lci_get_context — the source is authoritative because it is the artifact itself), the claim is exploratory and explicitly labeled as a hypothesis rather than a decision.

From the source SKILL.md

Project-level value-layer rule. Load-bearing claims drive downstream decisions that are expensive to reverse. The discipline of citing at least two independent sources before committing to such a claim is the cheapest available defense against the rationalization-trap failure mode (K2 §3.3, ConflictQA 2604.11209 §4): silently rationalizing one source's claim into a spec because no second source was consulted to disagree.

What this skill does

Multi Source Required For Load Bearing Claims is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the security-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/multi-source-required-for-load-bearing-claims/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
