Overrides and corrections
Save human corrections on research outputs so trust compounds over time.
Overview
When research gets a fact wrong, or your firm knows better from experience, you can save an override inline. Overrides stay attached to the workflow output so the next reviewer sees both the original source-backed answer and your correction. They do not edit external websites; they preserve provenance inside Toolblocks.
When to use this
- A generated field contradicts a primary source you verified manually.
- Your firm has non-public context (relationship history, prior project roles) that research cannot find.
- You want juniors to see principal-approved corrections on repeat pursuits.
Steps
Open a completed research result in the task or research panel.
Locate the field that needs correction and choose Override or inline edit (label varies by surface).
Enter the corrected value and a short reason if prompted, enough for the next reader to trust the change.
Save. The override displays alongside citations; original sources remain visible for audit.
Re-run research later if the underlying facts may have changed, overrides are not a substitute for fresh sources on time-sensitive data.
Overrides reflect your firm’s reviewed judgment. They do not automatically retrain models; they keep your workspace accurate for the next person who opens the task.
