Concordance

@matharrismma

Language models generate; Concordance verifies. The verify tool checks a claim deterministically (no model in the loop) and returns HOLDS / BROKEN / INCOMPLETE with the worked reasoning and a sealed receipt (content_hash + cite_url) that re-fetches byte-identical or not at all. Also: ranked search over an ~11k-record library, seal_fetch to re-verify any receipt, redact to strip PII before text travels, and a sealed connection graph. Runs sovereign/offline too (stdlib-first Python). A public false-positive benchmark covers every domain: the engine has never sealed a falsehood. 38 tools live; remote endpoint at https://narrowhighway.com/mcp.
