What problem does it solve? Statutory knowledge from memory goes stale as legislatures amend, repeal, and renumber laws. This Skill ensures that any legal advice, finding, or drafting decision is grounded in the current, authoritative text of a statute or regulation rather than potentially outdated recollection. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Official Source Retrieval: Fetches statute and regulation text from official sources such as state legislature sites, Cornell LII, eCFR, legislation.gov.uk, and EUR-Lex using the webfetch tool. - Citation Discovery and Verification: Uses web-search to discover the correct citation when the governing section is unknown, then confirms it against the primary source before relying on it. - Jurisdiction-Aware Research: Resolves the governing law from the matter's jurisdiction pack and the document's governing-law clause before selecting sources. - Use Case: When checking whether a liability cap clause is lawful in California, the Skill identifies the governing jurisdiction, fetches the relevant California code section from leginfo.legislature.ca.gov, and quotes the current statutory text with a precise citation. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to verify what a specific statute or regulation currently says, for example by requesting the current text of the governing law for a clause in your matter.
