(Real output, 2026-10-17, --thorough. The quoted line under each verdict is the exact span the verifier judged — so you can check the check. --verbose prints every source it weighed.)

Every AI answer, every page an agent reads, every claim in a doc — nobody can tell what's true. verify takes any input, extracts up to 20 factual claims (configurable with --max, up to 50), and judges each one against web evidence: verified / contradicted / unverified, with confidence, the source, and the reason.

• Any input — a sentence, a paragraph, a URL, a file, or stdin (paste a ChatGPT answer)

• Every agent — verify mcp exposes a verify tool; verify setup adds it to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf and Gemini CLI in one command. Your agent gets a conscience: verify before you answer.

• Evidence, not vibes — claim-level NLI entailment against fetched sources, cross-source consensus and contradiction detection (live citation checks on deeper keyed runs). Powered by the LastSearch verification API.

• Honest — confidence is an evidence-based estimate, not a guarantee; sources are shown so you can check.

Use

npx verify-anything@0.2.0 "<text>"            # a claim or paragraph (50+ chars)
npx verify-anything@0.2.0 https://example.com # a page
npx verify-anything@0.2.0 report.md           # a text file (up to 50,000 chars)
pbpaste | npx verify-anything@0.2.0           # whatever's on your clipboard
npx verify-anything@0.2.0 ... --verbose       # every source judged, with entailment / contradiction scores
npx verify-anything@0.2.0 ... --json          # machine-readable; exit code 1 if anything is contradicted

Give your agent a conscience

npx verify-anything@0.2.0 setup              # registers the MCP server with your installed clients
npx verify-anything@0.2.0 setup --with-key   # also writes $LASTSEARCH_API_KEY into each client config

setup pins the version it writes, backs up each config to <file>.bak, leaves files it can't parse untouched, and won't replace a different server already named verify unless you pass --force. For Codex CLI: codex mcp add verify -- npx -y verify-anything@0.2.0 mcp.

Then: "Draft the answer, then run verify on it before you show me."

Library

import { verifyText } from "verify-anything";
const r = await verifyText("...", { depth: "thorough" });
r.claims.forEach(c => console.log(c.status, c.confidence, c.text));

Limits (read this)

Verification is only as good as the evidence found and the verifier reading it. It will miss things and occasionally be wrong; thorough (the default) uses the stronger verifier. Treat the output as a fast, sourced second opinion — not an oracle.

Output is automated and may be wrong or incomplete; it is not professional advice. You (and your agent) decide what to rely on.
