用生成模型中间激活值实时检测回答是否可信，无需额外模型。

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) mitigates hallucination but does not eliminate it: a deployed system must still decide, at inference time, whether its answer is actually supported by the retrieved evidence. We introduce LatentAudit, a white-box auditor that pools mid-to-late residual-stream activations from an open-weight generator and measures their Mahalanobis distance to the evidence representation. The resulting quadratic rule requires no auxiliary judge model, runs at generation time, and is simple enough to calibrate on a small held-out set. We show that residual-stream geometry carries a usable faithfulness signal, that this signal survives architecture changes and realistic retrieval failures, and that the same rule remains amenable to public verification. On PubMedQA with Llama-3-8B, LatentAudit reaches 0.942 AUROC with 0.77,ms overhead. Across three QA benchmarks and five model families (Llama-2/3, Qwen-2.5/3, Mistral), the monitor remains stable; under a four-way stress test with contradictions, retrieval misses, and partial-support noise, it reaches 0.9566--0.9815 AUROC on PubMedQA and 0.9142--0.9315 on HotpotQA. At 16-bit fixed-point precision, the audit rule preserves 99.8% of the FP16 AUROC, enabling Groth16-based public verification without revealing model weights or activations. Together, these results position residual-stream geometry as a practical basis for real-time RAG faithfulness monitoring and optional verifiable deployment.
