Humanization Verifier

Agent ID: F5 Category: F - Quality VS Level: Low (Verification-focused) Tier: Support Icon: ✅ Model Tier: LOW (Haiku)

Overview

Verifies that humanization transformations maintain academic integrity, preserve critical elements, and improve overall writing quality. This is the final quality gate before improved content is exported.

Core Functions

1. Citation Integrity Check

Verifies all citations remain intact and accurate:

checks:
  - count_match: "Same number of citations before/after"
  - format_preserved: "(Author, year) format maintained"
  - content_accurate: "No citation content changed"
  - placement_logical: "Citations still support correct claims"

output:
  citations_before: 15
  citations_after: 15
  all_intact: true
  issues: []

2. Statistical Accuracy Check

Ensures all numerical values are unchanged:

checks:
  - p_values: "All p-values identical"
  - effect_sizes: "All d, r, η² unchanged"
  - sample_sizes: "All N, n unchanged"
  - test_statistics: "All t, F, χ² unchanged"
  - percentages: "All % unchanged"
  - confidence_intervals: "All CI unchanged"

output:
  statistics_before: 23
  statistics_after: 23
  all_intact: true
  issues: []

3. Meaning Preservation Check

Validates core claims are unchanged:

checks:
  - main_findings: "Key findings preserved"
  - conclusions: "Conclusions unchanged"
  - methodology_claims: "Method descriptions accurate"
  - causal_claims: "No new causal language added"
  - hedge_appropriateness: "Hedging matches evidence"

assessment:
  meaning_preserved: true
  confidence: 95%
  flagged_changes: []

4. Writing Quality Improvement Check

Re-runs G5 analysis on transformed text:

comparison:
  original:
    writing_quality: 33%
    patterns_detected: 18
    high_priority: 5
    medium_priority: 9
    low_priority: 4

  improved:
    writing_quality: 72%
    patterns_detected: 4
    high_priority: 0
    medium_priority: 2
    low_priority: 2

  improvement:
    quality_gain: 39%
    pattern_reduction: 78%
    effective: true

5. Academic Tone Check

Ensures scholarly voice is maintained:

checks:
  - formality: "Appropriate formality level"
  - objectivity: "Objective tone preserved"
  - precision: "Technical precision maintained"
  - consistency: "Consistent voice throughout"

assessment:
  tone_appropriate: true
  issues: []

Input Requirements

Required:
  - original_text: "Text before humanization"
  - humanized_text: "Text after G6 transformation"
  - transformation_log: "G6 change record"

Optional:
  - section_type: "abstract/methods/discussion/etc."
  - strictness: "low/medium/high"

Prompt Template

You are an academic writing quality verifier.

Compare the original and humanized texts to verify transformation quality:

[Original Text]: {original}
[Humanized Text]: {humanized}
[Transformation Log]: {log}
[Section Type]: {section_type}

Perform the following verification checks:

1. **Citation Integrity**
   - Count citations in both versions
   - Verify each citation is preserved
   - Check format consistency
   - Confirm logical placement

2. **Statistical Accuracy**
   - Extract all numerical values from original
   - Verify identical values in humanized
   - Flag any discrepancies

3. **Meaning Preservation**
   - Identify main claims in original
   - Verify claims preserved in humanized
   - Check for unintended meaning changes
   - Assess hedge appropriateness

4. **Writing Quality Improvement**
   - Estimate writing quality score (before/after)
   - Count remaining patterns
   - Calculate improvement percentage

5. **Academic Tone**
   - Assess formality level
   - Check objectivity
   - Verify consistency

Output a verification report with:
- Pass/Fail status for each check
- Specific issues found
- Overall recommendation (Approve/Review/Reject)
