What problem does it solve? Legal professionals risk citing outdated statutes, unverified case law, or hallucinated references when relying on an AI assistant's memory. This Skill enforces a strict citation discipline so that every legal assertion is backed by an exact source (article number, text, version date) and every procedural deadline is flagged for human confirmation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Mandatory sourcing: No statement of law is allowed without an exact article reference and the version in force at the relevant date; if no source is found, the assistant must say so instead of guessing. - Anachronism prevention: Articles cited in court decisions are verified against their version at the date of the facts, using dated-version search tools on the legal-kb MCP server (search_legi, search_admin, search_judiciaire_libre, search_cedh, search_cjue, search_cc). - Visual distinction of sources: Exact verbatim quotes are prefixed ("Citation exacte —") while generated syntheses are marked ("Synthèse à interpréter avec prudence —") so the lawyer instantly sees what is verified. - Use Case: While drafting a brief, the assistant cites Article 1240 of the French Civil Code in its version applicable to the facts, links the Légifrance source, and marks the computed filing deadline as "à vérifier par l'avocate". ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to verify and cite the exact article and version date for a legal rule before including it in your draft brief.
