Gadoes builds a citation spine into Mike

Every answer the assistant gives now comes with sourced, link-checkable citations rendered as cards under the message.

chat-uisearch

Gadoes has wired citations through the whole stack: when the assistant pulls from a source, that source gets captured, stored, and rendered as its own card under the reply - with a coloured dot showing whether the link is live, unreachable, or simply unchecked.

A few choices stand out. The fork separates whether a citation is reachable from whether it's trustworthy, leaving room for a future review layer without having to redo the plumbing. Short citation lists stay expanded; longer ones collapse so the message doesn't drown. Arabic excerpts flip to right-to-left automatically. A 'Verify & read' button is stubbed in but not yet wired - clearly the next move.

So what For anyone evaluating legal-AI tools, this is what defensible answers start to look like: every claim tied to a source, every source flagged as live or not.
