Citations, Evidence & Traceability

CORA is designed for regulated work. That means you should always be able to answer:

  • Where did this statement come from?
  • Which document/version was used?
  • What did I open, and how did I get here?

This section explains the evidence loop in CORA:

Answer → Citation → Source (internal or external) → Evidence (grounding) → Traceability (history)

Answer with citations and evidence

1) Citations (internal vs external)

CORA answers include inline citations. Citations are interactive, hover or click them to open the supporting text.

  • Internal citation: points within the same document (often used to narrow scope)
  • External citation: points to another document (opens in a sub-tab)

2) Evidence / grounding (what was used)

Grounding shows the exact passages CORA relied on to generate the answer.

3) Traceability panel (history and navigation)

CORA maintains traceability as you open citations, jump into sub-tabs, and narrow scope.
