From Questions To Proven Answers
Bring professional scientific and technical accuracy directly into how your AI assistant thinks. Regular developer tools excel at writing code, but struggle with complex research questions. Questy embeds primary-source verification, structured taxonomies, and calibrated uncertainty directly into your agent’s reasoning loop.

Evidence-Led Research & Hypothesis Testing
Frames the research objective, separates stable facts from disputed claims, plans live searches, cross-checks primary sources, and evaluates competing explanations fairly.
- • 7-step empirical operating procedure
- • Counter-evidence & causal limitation analysis
- • Real-time vs. underlying data date separation
Structured Matrices, Schemas & Decision Trees
Transforms chaotic notes, requirements, and multi-source findings into coherent taxonomies, comparison matrices, data schemas, and layered architectures without detaching claims from evidence.
- • Explicit inclusion/exclusion classification rules
- • Preserves source IDs, owners, and timestamps
- • Exposes contradictions and missing fields
Source Credibility, Provenance & Citation Verification
Deconstructs claims, traces primary provenance, distinguishes original data from press-release reposts, and scores sources across 6 dimensions (Relevance, Authority, Method, Recency, Corroboration, Conflict Risk).
- • 4-tier evidentiary hierarchy enforcement
- • Zero fabricated DOIs, quotes, or metadata
- • Flags dead links, paywalls, and uninspected URLs
Reusable Evaluation Models & Decision Rubrics
Builds operational decision frameworks with non-overlapping criteria, observable indicators, rating anchors, edge-case stress tests, and sensitivity analyses.
- • Separates hard constraints from weighted preferences
- • Prevents false numerical precision
- • Includes validation plan & revision triggers
Ecosystem, Stakeholder & Dependency Mapping
Maps how organizations, technologies, standards, and stakeholders connect. Identifies hubs, bottlenecks, single points of failure, and information flows with documented edge confidence.
- • Separates documented edges from inferred links
- • Generates adjacency tables & Mermaid topologies
- • Tracks historical vs. active dependencies
Decision-Ready Technical & Executive Reports
Converts verified findings into clear, audience-tailored deliverables that lead with the conclusion, connect every claim to evidence, address counter-arguments, and specify concrete next steps.
- • Leads with executive finding & decision impact
- • Separates evidence from interpretation
- • Actionable recommendations with owners & risks
Impartiality, Uncertainty Calibration & Reproducibility Guardrails
Governs all Questy skills with a 10-point final quality gate: enforcing calibrated confidence labels (Verified, Supported, Disputed, Unverified, Inferred, Unknown), temporal freshness disclosure, privacy protection, and the canonical narrative flow: Context → Question → Constraints → Evidence → Analysis → Conclusion → Next action.
Core Pillars & Epistemic Rigor
Questy transforms your coding assistant into a rigorous research partner by embedding institutional-grade R&D protocols directly into its reasoning loop, eliminating hallucinations and ensuring total evidentiary rigor.
Unbiased Thinking
Starts from the question—never a predetermined conclusion. Evaluates competing hypotheses and counter-evidence weighted strictly by methodological quality.
Step-by-Step System
Follows a deterministic 7-stage reasoning pipeline from scoping and verification planning to structured synthesis and proportionate action.
Real Proofs
Enforces primary-source provenance (RFCs, statutes, datasets, filings) and explicitly distinguishes verified facts from inferences or uninspected URLs.
Epistemic Calibration Simulator
Select a claim status below to inspect how Questy’s /Ques-source and /Ques-guidelines calibrate confidence.
HTTP/3 uses QUIC over UDP as standardized in IETF RFC 9114 (June 2022).
Tier 1 — Primary Evidence (IETF RFC 9114 Official Specification)
Directly supported by inspected primary IETF standards documentation. Independent implementations (Cloudflare quiche, Chromium Cronet) corroborate protocol semantics.
Proceed with UDP port 443 ingress rule configuration in production load balancer.
Layered Onto the Agent You Already Use — Not a Replacement.
Questy requires zero runtime migrations or platform lock-in. It installs as a standardized agent skill or extension across Antigravity, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Codex, and Perplexity.
- Identical declarative schema across CLI and IDE presets
- No telemetry scraping • 100% local or private agent execution
- Seamless fallback for offline or air-gapped repositories

Why Engineering Teams Choose Questy
How Questy compares against ungrounded LLM prompting and generic web-search wrappers when solving high-stakes technical and scientific questions.
| Capability / Standard | Raw LLM Assistant | Generic Search Wrapper | Questy Evidentiary Suite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary Source Hierarchy | Mixes training memory with guesswork | Treats SEO blogs equal to RFCs/papers | Strict 4-tier hierarchy via /Ques-source |
| Counter-Hypothesis Testing | Sycophantic confirmation bias | Summarizes top 3 snippets without critique | Mandatory competing explanation analysis |
| Uncertainty Calibration | High-confidence tone on unverified claims | Opaque inline links without confidence scope | Explicit 6-tier status labels (Verified → Unknown) |
| Structured Output Schemas | Ad-hoc prose paragraphs | Bullet lists detached from provenance | Traceable taxonomies & rubrics (/Ques-Struct) |
| Cost & Telemetry Privacy | Host model tokens only | Paid scraping APIs & third-party logging | $0 / MIT Open-Source • 0 Extra API Keys |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Questy and how does it improve AI coding assistants? expand_more
Questy is an open-source suite of 7 modular AI skills (/Ques-research, /Ques-Struct, /Ques-source, /Ques-framework, /Ques-network, /Ques-report, and /Ques-guidelines) created by Team Antimatr. It embeds institutional-grade research protocols directly into an AI assistant's reasoning loop so the agent frames questions rigorously, checks primary sources, evaluates competing explanations, and labels uncertainty before recommending engineering decisions.
How do I install Questy in my AI model or IDE? expand_more
Run git clone https://github.com/Team-Antimatr/Questy.git and copy or symlink the ques-* skill folders into your host assistant's skills directory (for example, ~/.gemini/config/skills/ in Google Antigravity, ~/.claude/skills/ in Claude Code, or .cursor/skills/ in Cursor). See the Documentation page for step-by-step host commands.
Does Questy require paid API keys, external tokens, or telemetry services? expand_more
No. Questy is 100% free, open-source, and requires zero external API keys or paid scraping subscriptions. It runs natively inside your existing AI coding assistant using the file, search, and browser tools already permitted in your environment, with zero telemetry collection.
How does Questy prevent hallucinated citations and false certainty? expand_more
Through /Ques-source and /Ques-guidelines, Questy forbids inferring that a webpage was verified merely because a URL is known. It separates publication dates from underlying event dates, checks independent corroboration (rejecting syndicated press-release echo chambers), and requires explicit epistemic labels (Verified, Supported, Disputed, Unverified, Inferred, or Unknown).
