Standard LLMs process each query independently and often overlook the continuity of prior exchanges.
“Standard LLMs process each query independently, often overlooking the continuity of prior exchanges.”

The limitation of standard LLMs in maintaining continuity can result in responses that lack coherence, contextual relevance, and even hallucinations in extended dialogues or complex tasks.
“This limitation can result in responses that lack coherence, contextual relevance, and even lead to hallucinations in extended dialogues or complex tasks [1], [2].”

“The resulting “context horizon” problem manifests as fragmented responses, contradictions, and an inability to track user preferences or maintain persistent dialogue state.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
