Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00099 | $0.00912 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00040 | $0.00365 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00182 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00091 |
Grade A, and why
route-case-citation-l0cka scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 19d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Route Case Citation
Read ../../references/case-law-verification-method.md before routing. It defines the citation grammar, the official-source hierarchy and the five-outcome result semantics every downstream skill uses.
Routing is deterministic because a medium-neutral citation names its issuing court. This skill only identifies where verification must happen; it never declares a citation verified.
Workflow
- Extract every citation from the request or supplied document. Accept
medium-neutral citations (
[2023] HCA 12), reported citations ((2020) 94 ALJR 1) and bare case names (Smith v Jones).-
When command execution is available, use the bundled parser:
python3 <skill-root>/scripts/parse_citation.py "[2023] HCA 12" "(1992) 175 CLR 1"Resolve
<skill-root>as the directory containing thisSKILL.md. The parser is offline and read-only: it reports citation type, court and the verification route, and proves nothing about whether the decision exists. Without command execution, apply the same grammar manually.
-
- Route each citation.
HCA, andCLR/ALJRreported citations →verify-hca-judgment.- NSW court and tribunal identifiers (
NSWSC,NSWCA,NSWCCA,NSWDC,NSWLEC,NSWCATAP, …) andNSWLR→verify-nsw-judgment. FCA,FCAFC,FedCFamC…,FCCA,FamCA,FamCAFCandFCR→verify-federal-judgment.- Recognised but unsupported courts (Victoria, Queensland, WA, SA,
Tasmania, ACT, NT) → report
UNVERIFIABLEfor that citation, name the court's own website as the manual check, and say the jurisdiction is not yet supported. - A bare case name with no citation → route by any stated court or jurisdiction; if none, ask which court decided it or search the most plausible official publisher and say which was searched.
- For an unrecognised report series, state that the series cannot be
resolved from free official sources and route the underlying decision by
court if the court is identifiable, otherwise report
UNVERIFIABLE. - Hand each routed citation to its verification skill and consolidate the results in one table when more than one citation was checked.
What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

route-case-citation-l0cka is a skill published in the GitHub repository ThomasMoreAI/legal-skills-open (95 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 99 tokens to every session and 912 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-09.
