MCP Contradiction Check Tools (4)

find_contradictions

Scan the vault for note pairs with high concept overlap but conflicting numerical or qualitative claims. Returns all detected conflicts with the specific issues flagged.

check_pair

Run the full contradiction check between two specific notes (by path or filename stem). Returns the detailed conflict analysis — shared concepts, quantitative conflicts, negation conflicts.

extract_claims

Pull all quantitative claims (numbers with units) and negation patterns from a single note. Useful as input to your own verification pipeline.

generate_reconciliation_prompt

For a detected contradiction, produce a structured prompt you can feed to an LLM to reason through the conflict and suggest a resolution. Preserves the exact claims + shared concepts + both notes' context windows.
