Getting the Source Right, Not Just the Fact: Source-Aware Verification for MCP Agents
MCP agents are shipping to production. Now the hard part: verifying they're pulling data from the RIGHT source, not just ANY source.
Why it matters
Source-aware verification is emerging as a critical safety and reliability layer for agentic systems. As agents access knowledge bases, APIs, and external data, distinguishing between correct and plausible-but-wrong sources prevents hallucination-backed decision-making in production workflows.
