What problem does it solve?
This Skill standardizes the evaluation of collected legal sources to prevent unreliable evidence from supporting legal conclusions and to detect source laundering where secondary materials paraphrase primary law without pinpoint citations.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Systematic Grading: Assigns a reliability_grade (A–D) to every source and records a concise rationale for auditability.
- Authority Classification: Labels each source as primary, secondary, or mixed to determine whether it may alone support key conclusions.
- Laundering Detection & Remediation: Flags secondary sources that paraphrase primary texts without pinpoint citations and requires fetching or transparently citing originals.
- Enforcement Rule: Ensures every key conclusion is supported by at least one Grade A or B primary authority and prevents reliance on D-grade-only material.
- Use Case: Validate a compiled bibliography from cross-jurisdictional research and generate an actionable remediation list for any unsupported assertions.
