What is a gap?
Claim evaluation, which produces the seven kinds in the table, is not part of the published API yet. API search gaps are.
A gap is a problem evaluation found in your context. There are seven kinds: contradicted claim, unsupported claim, missing evidence, incomplete context, stale fact, ambiguous authority, and conflict between approved sources.
Gaps are surfaced, never silently fixed. Remediate prioritizes them by consequence, relevance and funnel stage, and material ones route to a person with the authority to settle them.
One more kind is produced from your API traffic today: an API search gap, filed when a query through the org API, the MCP server or the CLI finds nothing. Every gap in your queue can be read and resolved over the API.
| Kind | Means |
|---|---|
| Contradicted claim | An answer conflicts with an approved source |
| Unsupported claim | Nothing in the Context Layer backs it |
| Missing evidence | The claim is plausible but nothing was cited |
| Incomplete context | The source covers part of the question |
| Stale fact | The source is right but out of date |
| Ambiguous authority | Two approved sources disagree |
| Conflict between approved sources | The disagreement is material |
