+# inspect-claim-support
+
+A **claim-support** (faithfulness / groundedness) scorer for
+[Inspect AI](https://inspect.aisi.org.uk/), packaged as a standalone extension.
+
+`claim_support` assesses whether a claimed answer is *actually substantiated by
+the conversation transcript* — not whether it is correct in absolute terms. It is
+a model-graded scorer with a rubric that maps SUPPORTED / PARTIAL / UNSUPPORTED
+onto Inspect's CORRECT / PARTIAL / INCORRECT, and returns NOANSWER on a grader
+parse failure.
+
+### Why it earns its place: absence isn't support
+
+The rubric refuses to let *absence of evidence* pass as support. A negative claim
+like "I made no network calls" only scores SUPPORTED if the transcript is actually
+capable of showing that class of event. If the transcript cannot expose the
+relevant events, the claim is PARTIAL or UNSUPPORTED — never SUPPORTED. This
+surfaces overclaims instead of laundering them through a plausible rationale.
+
+The scorer assesses support against the **Inspect transcript only**
+(transcript-visible events), not against actual runtime truth in the environment.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pip install inspect-claim-support
+```
+
+## Use
+
+```python
+from inspect_ai import Task
+from inspect_claim_support import claim_support
+
+task = Task(
+    dataset=...,
+    solver=...,
+    scorer=claim_support(),   # optionally: claim_support(model="openai/gpt-4o")
+)
+```
+
+Once installed, the scorer is also resolvable by its namespaced registry name
+`inspect_claim_support/claim_support` via Inspect's setuptools entry point.
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `template` — grading template (defaults to a SUPPORTED / PARTIAL / UNSUPPORTED
+  rubric with the absence-isn't-support boundary built in).
+- `model` — model to use for grading (defaults to the model being evaluated).
+
+## Origin & credit
+
+This scorer originated as
+[UKGovernmentBEIS/inspect_ai#4166](https://github.com/UKGovernmentBEIS/inspect_ai/pull/4166)
+(addressing issue #4143). The Inspect maintainers judged that it better fits an
+external package than Inspect core, so it is distributed here. The implementation
+uses only Inspect's public API (the internal `chat_history` helper is
+reimplemented locally for transcript rendering).
