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.

   supporting brief; max 15 pages without leave (CRC
   3.1113(d)); table of contents and table of authorities
   required if over 10 pages (CRC 3.1113(f))
3. **Declaration(s)** — separately titled documents; sworn
   facts under CCP § 2015.5
4. **Request for Judicial Notice** (Cal. Evid. Code §§ 452–453)
   — if requesting the court to notice legislative history,
   court records, official acts, etc.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codearranger/claude-legal/ca-draft-motion@sha256:b3919242dea81e04

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
