SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Builds and maintains a structured, deduplicated chronology from diverse document sources, pulling dates, events, and provenance to support litigation briefs and witness prep.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deduplicated event extraction from documents and uploads
  • Significance tagging per matter theory (red/yellow/white)
  • Output variants: working chronology, statement-of-facts, witness chronology

Quick Start

Upload your matter files or provide document paths and run chronology to generate a dated, deduplicated timeline with provenance.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a litigation timeline from uploaded documents?

Build a litigation timeline by uploading matter files or providing document paths. The chronology skill extracts dated events, deduplicates them, and tags significance to produce a structured Markdown timeline with provenance.

How does de-duplication work when extracting events for a matter chronology?

De-duplication for a matter chronology works by consolidating dated events from diverse document sources into a single timeline. It removes redundant entries while preserving provenance tagging to ensure each event is traceable to its original document.

Can I generate different chronology output variants for witness prep and statements of facts?

Yes, you can generate multiple output variants including a working chronology, a statement-of-facts, and a witness chronology. These variants are produced from the same deduplicated event data, tailored to support different litigation briefs and witness preparation needs.

Does chronology enforce privilege posture gating for litigation documents?

Yes, the chronology enforces privilege posture gating when processing litigation documents. This ensures that privileged information is handled appropriately while building the deduplicated, significance-tagged timeline from your uploaded sources.

What is the difference between matter mode and ad-hoc documents mode for timeline creation?

Matter mode sources theory from CLAUDE.md and matter workspace configurations to produce matter-centric timelines, while ad-hoc documents mode generates production-centric timelines from directly uploaded files without requiring a pre-configured matter workspace.

What are the limitations of automated significance tagging in litigation chronologies?

Automated significance tagging relies on matter theory defined in CLAUDE.md and workspace configurations. If these theory files are incomplete or missing, the red, yellow, and white significance tags may not accurately reflect case strategy, requiring manual review of the chronology output.
