Reads what it retrieves, and shows the source for every claim. Says “not stated” rather than guessing.
Reads the open web and repeats what it finds — sometimes wrongly. Not advice, and not for a crisis: Samaritans 116 123.
Source The open web Canon A canon is a fixed, curated corpus the operator chose — here, this project’s design docs. Deterministic and fast. The web is live and messy.
Sources to read More sources, more to read — and more places to go wrong.
Span veto Rejects an answer whose quoted span doesn’t answer this question. On noisy sources it is the main defence.
Veto threshold Lower vetoes less. 0 disables it.
Read sources separately On failure, re-reads each source alone and keeps the answer most of them agree on.
Temperature 0 is greedy, the setting every published number was measured under. Raise it to watch a grounded answer drift into invention. Nothing is cached above 0.
Sampling top-k Sample only from the k likeliest next tokens; 0 means no limit. Does nothing at temperature 0. Not the same as “sources to read”.
