What is switched on right now

The gateway refuses calls once the monthly ceiling is reached, with a typed reason and a ledger record. Refusal is the designed behavior: the gateway will not spend its way past a control.

Presence booleans and counts only — this page can see whether a control exists and how often it ran, never a secret value or a dollar figure. The deterministic clause library and the review/adjudication surfaces run regardless of gateway state.

Deterministic engines

Citation verification layers

Nothing is ever labeled “good law” without a licensed citator result, and unverified existence says so on the report — the ladder’s seven levels are documented on the coverage matrix.

34 of 259 cited Florida statutes carry a content-hashed snapshot verified against the Legislature’s official text (baseline last verified 2026-08-24) — baselines only move through reviewed source-control history.

Scheduled live re-check last ran 2026-09-19: 34 verified · 0 changed (under review) · 0 unreachable.

Exemplar locality ladder

Grounded runs prefer exemplar filings from as close to the matter’s courthouse as the public record allows — in this order, weighted 25 of 100 scoring points at the top of the ladder. Every foundation’s tier is disclosed on its label and in the run’s Foundation Analysis. Two ladders: litigation instruments from the federal court record climb every rung; state-law instruments — deeds, letters, agreements, the estate instruments, discovery requests, declarations, and every official form, professional sample, or specimen found by live search — climb county, state, and national only, so a form from a neighboring state is national even when the two states share a federal circuit.

1. 1.county — Same county — the filing practice of the user’s own courthouse (blessed packs and keyed state-court sources)
2. 2.district — Same federal district — the court the matter would actually be heard in
3. 3.circuit — Same circuit — controlling appellate conventions (the federal court record; a state-law form or sample from a neighboring state in the same circuit is national)
4. 4.state — Same state — a sibling district’s practice, and the state’s own forms, samples, specimens, masters, and packs
5. 5.national — National — the general federal record, used only when nothing closer qualifies

Exemplar reliability gates

• Counsel of record required — a pro se filing can never serve as a foundation. The gate is hard: filings with no attorney of record are excluded before ranking, and the exclusion count is disclosed.
• Docket outcome — the court’s own ruling, read from the same public record: a filing the court GRANTED earns 10 of 100 scoring points (5 granted in part); a DENIED filing earns none and is barred from the primary structural slots — usable only as a last-resort companion, labeled as such. Every foundation’s outcome is disclosed on its label and in the Foundation Analysis.
• Professional representation — firm-backed, multi-attorney filings and firms with a demonstrated record of granted filings in the retrieved set score higher. Selection uses objective signals from the court record — never firm-name rankings or endorsements.

An offline pipeline (never in your request path) collects exemplar filings from an allowlisted registry of public court sources, code fetching and the engine verifying — is it the claimed document type, professionally drafted, complete? Verified and borderline candidates land in a counsel review queue for the registry and the packs; since 2026-09-07 a run whose lanes are thin for the user’s state also searches for itself under the same gates (the run-time discovery fallback below) and queues what it found for the same review. Sources whose terms forbid automated access are never enabled — the licensed connectors cover those courts instead.

• Florida Appellate Case Information System (Supreme Court + DCAs) (FL) — access-terms review pending
• Texas Appellate Courts Case Search (Supreme Court + Courts of Appeals) (TX) — access-terms review pending

EDGAR EX-10 exemplars (live, no key) — eligible transactional drafts (NDAs, employment, services, LLC and partnership agreements, leases, notes and loans) additionally ground on up to five recent material contracts from the SEC’s public archive — the agreements public companies and their counsel actually execute and file, under the same never-copy, never-name rules — enforced mechanically by the similarity and identity guards. Estate instruments deliberately stay on the deterministic masters.

Official forms and professional samples (live, no key) — demand letters, cease-and-desist letters, quitclaim deeds, bills of sale, guardian designations, prenuptial agreements, discovery requests, and declarations ground on 87 verified sources committed to the registry (60 official forms and public-record specimens from courts, clerks, and agencies; 23 complete samples law firms publish; 4 attorney-authored treatises read for doctrine, never modeled), read live from the publisher with a committed snapshot as the fallback, plus real specimens filed as exhibits in the public court record and executed instruments filed with the SEC — ranked by the same locality ladder (a Brevard deed grounds on Brevard’s own clerk form first) under the same never-copy, never-name guards. Every run also records how the provenance ledger took its rows (provenance_ledger on the run): until the vocabulary migrations are applied, exemplars outside the live vocabulary are pinned on the run itself and carried as ‘licensed’ with the true kind named, or deferred — never misfiled.

Licensed connectors

• UniCourt (licensed API) — keyed-dormant (subscription pending — owner call) · Licensed state and federal trial-court records — county-level exemplars at scale.
• Trellis (licensed API) — keyed-dormant (subscription pending — owner call) · Licensed state trial-court dockets and filings — the same-county answer for state courts.

Open-web exemplar lane

Firms, courts, clerks, agencies, and legal-aid organizations post real filed motions, briefs, official forms, and complete sample agreements across the open web. Discovery runs on a web-search lane with query shapes tuned on live searches (keyed-dormant — search key pending, owner item): nightly for the registry, and, since 2026-09-07, as the Run-time discovery fallback — when a lane has fewer than three exemplars for the matter, or none closer than the national tier, the run itself searches for the state’s official and statutory forms, filed specimens, and firm-published templates (at most three queries and eight reads inside a twenty-second wall clock), and what passes enters the same ranking, pinning, and guards as every other exemplar, marked in the memo as found by live search. Every result passes three mechanical safeguards first: publisher policy (53 publishers allowed — government courts, clerks, and agencies, registered professional publishers, and, by the owner’s 2026-09-07 decision, commercial template publishers, plus law-library or legal-aid publishers only after a recorded terms review · 6 awaiting that review · 5 denied, including every host whose robots.txt forbids automated access, anonymous upload re-publishers, e-filing portals, and case-law databases), robots.txt honored on every fetch, and classification — rules books, administrative orders, court opinions, and blank forms never pass as filed documents; a filed document needs a caption plus a bar number or certificate of service; a sample from a commercial template or an unregistered firm site serves only as a professional sample marked publisher-unverified (structure and completeness, never authority); and everything found is queued for counsel so the registry learns.
