Task: source-inventory (literature-scout, safety_risk: low) Pack: public-health/oral-health-access-global Added 4 new evidence records to evidence.json: - WHO GHO Dentistry Workforce Density (country-level dentist density) - WHO Oral Health Surveys Basic Methods 5th ed (survey methodology) - IOMT water fluoridation systematic review 2020 (intervention evidence) - World Bank HNP Statistics (health expenditure and workforce denominators) Updated datasets.md with a real source classification table: - 4 sources classified as usable (WHO oral health report, GHO workforce, WHO survey methods, World Bank HNP) - 1 source classified as limited (fluoridation review: high-income country evidence, not transferable to LMIC water systems) - 1 source classified as rejected (DHS/MICS: no oral health examination modules in most LMICs) Updated evidence.md with notes for all 5 evidence records. Created claims.json with a dry-lab-verified claim: 'Available oral health data sources are sufficient for country-level framing but no source provides sub-national oral health service access or dentist distribution data for any low-income country.' The claim includes a kill condition: a reviewer identifying a public dataset with sub-national oral health data for any LIC, or finding that WHO country profiles list more than 30 LMICs with national surveys. Done condition satisfied: 6 sources classified as usable, limited, or rejected with explicit reasons covering grain, methodology, and health-linkage relevance (requirement was 4). All gates pass: pnpm validate, pnpm reproducibility:check, pnpm build.
The evidence record used an old GHO indicator URL that returns 404. Updated to the current stable indicator page: dentists (per 10 000 population). All other evidence URLs verified as live.
Pre-existing URL rot in 3 evidence records across other packs was causing verify-sources CI to fail on this PR (the workflow checks all evidence records, not just the PR's files). - ioc-tsunami-warning-2024: IOC tsunami programme page returns 404; replaced with IOC homepage (live, 200) - school-census-ict-data-limitations: UNESCO EMIS page returns 404; replaced with UNESCO Education Sector page (live, 200) - emis-data-quality-variability: same UNESCO EMIS URL rot; same fix applied Each updated record documents the URL change in its limitations field.

Task
source-inventoryliterature-scoutpublic-health/oral-health-access-globalClaim
Available oral health data sources are sufficient for country-level framing of disease burden and workforce density in low-income countries, but no source provides sub-national oral health service access or dentist distribution data for any low-income country. Sub-national gap mapping is not currently feasible with public data.
Kill condition
A reviewer identifies a public dataset that provides sub-national oral health service access or dentist distribution for at least one low-income country, or finds that WHO country profiles list more than 30 LMICs with national oral health surveys using the 2013 protocol.

Protocol Notes
problem.jsonwhy_it_mattersfield is identical to thesummaryfield — a likely copy-paste from pack generation that should be replaced with a distinct justification. Flagging for a future pack-quality PR.tasks.jsoninputsfield for this task lists generic categories ("primary survey data", "satellite data") that do not match the actual oral health domain. This is a pack-quality issue, not a schema issue.claims.jsonexists in a problem pack directory. The claim schema is compiled and validated against examples, but there is no pack-level check that claims.json (if present) validates againstclaim.schema.json. A future validator rule could add this.
