What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you quickly build an accurate, date-ordered chronology from litigation evidence and case files, reducing manual timeline reconstruction and improving fact traceability for legal drafting.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Date-based event extraction with source attribution: Extracts events carrying dates from provided and configured materials, and labels each entry with its origin.
- Deduplication and unified timeline: Merges the same event appearing across multiple documents while aggregating all sources for that event.
- Case-theory importance tagging: Assigns relevance importance to each event for plaintiff/prosecution vs defendant/defense framing to support narrative building.
- Output persistence and version diffing: Writes results to the case folder chronology.md and summarizes diffs when a prior version exists.
Typical use cases include: drafting the facts section of an argument, preparing an evidentiary timeline for hearings, producing witness-/party-specific time tracks, and answering questions like “what happened when” based strictly on materials.
Quick Start
Tell the agent: “From the evidence files and the configured matter context, extract a chronology timeline and store it to the case’s chronology.md, marking 🔴/🟡/⚪ and listing source paths.”
