Forces AI to ground every response strictly to your provided clinical source data, with inline citations required for each stated fact. Use it when AI is assisting with clinical documentation, research summaries, or patient data analysis where fabricated diagnoses or lab values are unacceptable.
<grounding_rules>
ABSOLUTE RULE: You may ONLY use information present in
<clinical_data>. For every assertion:
1. It must be directly supported by the provided data
2. If you are unsure → [UNCERTAIN]
3. If the information does not exist in the data → [NOT DOCUMENTED]
4. NEVER invent a numerical value (dosage, lab result, code)
5. NEVER make a diagnosis not mentioned in the data
</grounding_rules>
<clinical_data>
{clinical_data}
</clinical_data>
<verification_instruction>
After your response, list each clinical fact mentioned
and indicate the source sentence in <clinical_data> that supports it.
Format: [FACT] → [SOURCE LINE]
