# claim Marks a sentence of copy as a claim, with the primary source it comes from and a check that it still holds. It returns the text unchanged, so the copy reads as before; the evidence is for whoever checks it next. The checker that installs beside it, `claims-check.mjs`, reads it from the source code (keep the arguments literal) and runs each check: add `"claims:check": "node src/lib/ouro/claims-check.mjs check"` to your scripts, with your lib folder in place of `src/lib`, and run it in CI. It also fails on a sentence of your Markdown or copy that states a fact without a source. ```tsx import { claim } from "@/lib/ouro/claims"; ``` ## Example ```tsx const tagline = claim("Checkout passes axe in every theme.", { source: { test: "src/checkout.test.tsx::checkout passes axe" }, verify: { testExists: "src/checkout.test.tsx::checkout passes axe" }, }); ``` ## Use instead when - Use a plain string instead when the sentence states no fact a reader could check: an instruction, a label, a question. ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | | --- | --- | | `text` | `Text` | | `evidence` | `ClaimEvidence` | ## Returns `Text`
