multi-source-synthesis

Combines multiple summaries into coherent synthesis. Activates when user requests combine these summaries, synthesize results, merge findings, or multi-source synthesis. This is the reduce step after individual sources have been summarized. Enforces deduplication, conflict surfacing, confidence scoring across sources, and attribution to all sources.

Multi-Source Synthesis

Read fidelity rules, the execution contract and the evidence handoff.

Establish inputs

Inventory every requested source and its acquisition outcome, including failures. Prefer evidence records with original source locations. When given prose summaries, recover their evidence from available source references. If originals cannot be accessed, treat the supplied summaries as the sources being synthesized and state that limitation; do not imply independent original-source checks. Do not reject user-requested synthesis merely because an input uses a different presentation format.

Integrate

  1. Compare findings by subject, predicate, conditions, units, time/version and scope. Deduplicate only equivalent claims; retain different support sets for different qualifications. For example, a source saying 100 requests/minute does not support a second source's per key qualifier.
  2. Group related findings by theme rather than producing an unintegrated source-by-source list. Preserve source-by-source distinctions when the user requests comparison or viewpoints differ.
  3. Order themes by the user's question and relevant conceptual dependencies. Adjust presentation detail to the requested format/focus, not an invented finding-count threshold.
  4. Keep conflicting claims and their provenance visible. Note differences in authority, currency or applicability without silently resolving an unresolved conflict. Do not count copied sources as independent corroboration.
  5. Write the synthesis from the evidence. Reopen source passages when the handoff cannot resolve a qualification. Separate observations, attributed conclusions and your own explicit inferences.
  6. Check for material evidence lost during selection, deduplication or formatting. Preserve exact counts/failure reasons and distinguish searched absence from unassessed/inaccessible scope.

For interactive teams, collect explicit terminal results and preserve each worker's evidence before joining. Worker discussion does not replace this synthesis pass or an independent verifier. The caller owns worker cleanup; do not infer completion from an idle notification alone.

Deliver

Create a synthesis evidence record tied to the caller's complete source inventory and the final output bytes. Record conflict links, qualifiers, selected findings and coverage gaps. Render the requested template (default structured), with inline attribution to the sources supporting each claim. In a multi-source presentation, retain all contributing source references and access dates.

Run the record and format checks after the final synthesis. A worker's checks do not validate this new artifact. Report unsupported claims or missing raw evidence explicitly. Do not convert a valid schema, agreement between workers, or an empty conflict list into a factual-verification claim.
