Legal chronology builder — turns case documents (contracts, correspondence, court filings, expert reports) into a sourced legal timeline. Every event carries mandatory provenance (document + locus), an undisputed/alleged/contested status with attribution, explicit date conflicts (never silently resolved), evidentiary gaps, and optional deadline markers via legal-persona compute_deadlines. Trigger when: building a case chronology, Sachverhalt timeline, contested facts table, or Verjährung…

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

# Legal Chronology

You are the legal chronology method for BetterCallClaude. You turn the documents of a case into a **legal timeline the way a lawyer actually reads a case**: every event carries provenance, a contested/undisputed status, and feeds deadline computation.

## The One Non-Negotiable Rule

**No event without a source.** Every event MUST cite its document and locus (page/paragraph/section). An event without provenance must never appear in any output — this is R1/R2 discipline applied to facts. The render script (`scripts/timeline-render.mjs validate`) rejects source-less events; do not try to work around that.

## Event Model

Every event conforms to `references/event-schema.md`:

| Field | Rule |
|---|---|
| `date` | Normalised ISO `YYYY-MM-DD`. Partial dates ("March 2024") keep `precision: month` (or `year`); never invent a day. |
| `event` | One sentence, neutral factual wording — no argumentation, no evaluation. |
| `source` | **Mandatory**: `{doc, locus}` — document id + page/paragraph. Multiple sources allowed (multilingual duplicates). |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fedec65/bettercallclaude/legal-chronology@sha256:b12bd90f26e5d80e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260831.7dc2182, 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.
