Silo Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-23 · 27 entries checked · 7 flagged · 21 issues confirmed · 7 corrected · 14 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Earl — Earl is not a law enforcement figure in the Silo; the character who fits this description is Deputy Mims, not Earl.

Earl — Earl does not clash with Juliette as an antagonist; the early antagonist in law enforcement is Deputy Mims.

Silo Four — The claim that Silo Four is 'one of many refuges for humanity following the catastrophic collapse of civilization' is misleading: the silos were built before the collapse as part of a planned experiment, not as a post-collapse refuge.

Silo Four — The statement that 'the outside world is not toxic' contradicts established canon: in the Silo series, the outside world is indeed toxic.

The Archive — The Archive is not located below the mechanical level; its canonical location is below the farms and above the mechanical level.

The Archive — In the books, access to the deepest parts of the Archive (the 'Legacy') is controlled by biometric clearance tied to the Sheriff's badge, so the claim that it is not is incorrect.

Outer Door Key — The Outer Door Key as a unique physical key that unlocks the blast doors at Level 0 does not exist in the canon of the Silo series (books or TV adaptation).

Outer Door Key — The claim that the Key is the only mechanism capable of unlocking the blast doors contradicts canon, where the doors are opened via authorization codes, mechanical levers, or the Porter system, not a singular key object.

The Basement Archives — In the books, the outside air is not later revealed to be breathable; the video shows a clean outside, but the air outside the silo is actually toxic/lethal, and the video is a fake designed to lure people out to their deaths.

The Basement Archives — The claim that the video's truth varies across canon is misleading: in both the books and the TV series, the video depicts a clean outside, but in the books it is definitively a lie, while in the TV series its truth is ambiguous (the outside is shown to be cle

Anders' Sacrifice — The DID YOU KNOW section contains an incomplete sentence that is cut off, making it unclear.

Anders' Sacrifice — The entry states the hard drive in the show was left by 'a previous Head of IT' generically, but it was specifically left by a previous Head of IT named George (a different character).

The Gate — The digger tunnel is used by humans as an exit in both the books and the show, so the claim that it is 'not a route for human egress' is factually incorrect.

The Gate — The surface air is actually toxic in canon, and the danger is real, not manufactured; the claim that the danger was exaggerated or manufactured contradicts established canon.
