What problem does it solve? Legal professionals need synthesized answers to U.S. legal questions grounded in caselaw, statutes, and regulations, but manually searching Westlaw and compiling authority is slow. This Skill automates the full research cycle through the CoCounsel Legal MCP server and returns a written, citation-backed research report. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Autonomous Research Cycle: Starts a Deep Research session, polls for completion with adaptive backoff, and retrieves the final report without manual intervention. - Multi-Jurisdiction Support: Accepts up to three jurisdictions per query and prompts the user when none are specified. - Scope Guardrails: Recognizes out-of-scope requests (document retrieval, analytics, drafting, non-U.S. law) and redirects users to the appropriate Westlaw tool. - Use Case: A litigator asks how courts in California and New York have ruled on enforceability of non-compete clauses; the Skill frames the question, runs Westlaw Deep Research, and delivers a verbatim report with inline citations. ## Quick Start Ask a U.S. legal research question such as "Research how courts have applied the doctrine of promissory estoppel in California and New York" and the Skill will run the full research cycle and return the report.
