Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Skill: legal-reasoning

法律推理的价值不在于说出一个听起来对的结论,而在于让"事实 → 规则 → 适用 → 结论"
这条链路每一环都经得起检验。这个技能提供 IRAC 脚手架,并且强制区分"已核实的规
则"和"未核实的知识",避免看起来自信、实际没有依据的分析。

## 核心原则

**规则是研究缺口,不是默认结论。** 除非你已经从权威来源(国家法律法规数据库、
裁判文书网、用户提供的法条/合同/材料)确认了具体规则,否则不要把模型训练知识里
"大概是这样"的规则当成确定依据写进 Rule 部分。可以给出框架性认知,但必须显式标
注为"未核实"。

**不悄悄补检索缺口。** 如果检索/技能返回的结果对某条规则覆盖不足,明确说出来,
给用户选项(换关键词重搜 / 换信息源 / 用网络检索但标注待核实 / 直接标记待核实并
停在这里),不要为了让分析看起来完整就用模型记忆填坑。一个诚实的"这里还没查清
楚"比一个自信的错误规则更有价值。

## 引用来源标注体系

论证里出现的每一条法条/判例引用都标注来源,方便使用者判断可信度:

| 标签 | 含义 |
|---|---|
| `[官方检索]` | 来自国家法律法规数据库、裁判文书网等官方源,或用户配置的法律检索技能/工具 |
| `[网络检索-待核实]` | 来自 web_search/web_fetch,未必是权威源,需要核实 |
| `[模型记忆-待核实]` | 从训练知识里回忆出来的规则/条文,未经检索确认,虚构风险最高 |
| `[用户提供]` | 用户直接给出的材料(合同文本、案情陈述、已有法律意见) |

`待核实`标签不能省略或合并——它是使用者判断"这条该先去核实"的最快信号。

**遇到用户或材料引用的具体法条,如果你不确定是否准确:** 不要凭印象描述该条款
"大概是什么意思"。要么去检索确认原文并引用,要么直接说"这条我没有把握准确复述
内容,建议核对原文"。凭印象编出一个听起来合理但错误的条文内容,比说"不确定"更
糟糕——前者会被当真,后者不会。

## 工作流程

### 第一步:把争点表述成问题

从事实材料里提炼出真正需要回答的法律问题,用问句表述,而不是一个名词短语。
不写"违约责任",写"合同约定的交付延迟是否构成根本违约,能否据此解除合同并
主张违约金"。多个争点各自独立成一个 IRAC 块。

### 第二步:搭建每个争点的 IRAC

**争点(Issue):** 第一步得到的问句。

**规则(Rule):** 这是研究缺口,不是结论。按上面的核心原则,明确写出:

> `[待核实:需要确认xx地区/xx法律关系下的具体规则——从xx法律的xx章节入手,
> 再看是否有对应司法解释或指导性案例。]`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add open-octo/octo-agent/legal-reasoning@sha256:032e72b0b34f9f91

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260901.1936886, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
