Fetching from the wire…

LLMs barely correct errors in their own reasoning traces but readily correct the identical claim when it's attributed to an external source. Relabeling a claim from the agent's own role to an external one raises the explicit-correction rate by 23 to 93 percentage points across model families. That's a massive, free lift, and it has direct implications for how you wire any review step. More on the practical move in skills.
