Tool changes

No tool definition changes recorded. A server's first observation is its baseline; later probes record what changes.

Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed. How it is computed.

Tools (11)

check_case_validityIs this case still good law? Takes one case, such as "550 U.S. 544". A pending, provisional, preliminary, or stale result is not a clearance. To see which decisions cited it and how, use get_case_treatments.
check_quoteCheck whether a quotation appears word for word in the full text of one authority, identified by citation or OpenCase legalContentId. Ellipses and bracketed alterations are honored. This is a plain text comparison, not an AI judgment.
detect_legal_citationsFind the citations in a text and their positions, without looking any of them up. Use it to list what a document cites. To check whether they are real, use verify_citations_in_text.
get_case_treatmentsWhich later decisions cited one case, such as "550 U.S. 544", and how each treated it. For negative treatment, pass treatmentClasses ["negative", "cautionary"]: negative is overruled, reversed, vacated, or abrogated; cautionary is questioned, superseded, or declined to follow. Null treatment fields mean the citing reference has not been analyzed. For the case-level good-law status, use check_case_validity.
get_docket_filingRetrieve one numbered CourtListener RECAP docket entry and any contributed document text. RECAP may contain filing metadata without document text.
get_legal_authorityRead the text of one authority, by citation (such as "Fed. R. Evid. 702") or by legalContentId. To check whether citations exist without reading them, use resolve_legal_citations.
research_legal_questionResearch a legal question and return a cited answer using public legal sources.
resolve_legal_citationsCheck a list of separate citation strings, such as ["410 U.S. 113", "42 U.S.C. § 1983"]. For citations inside prose, use verify_citations_in_text. A bare case name with no reporter cite comes back as not checked.
review_document_against_lawResearch law relevant to a supplied legal document and return grounded findings, authorities, and proposed edits. Proposed edits are not applied.
search_docketsSearch CourtListener RECAP for federal PACER dockets by party name or docket number. Ambiguous same-number matches are returned for court disambiguation.
verify_citations_in_textCheck every citation in a draft, brief, memo, or passage. One call checks the whole text, so send the full document rather than one citation at a time. This is the cite-check tool. Returns each citation's position, status, type, and source.
