I haven't used skills files at all. I think my codebase scaffolding and AGENTS.md just kind of does everything I need. E.g. https://github.com/eliask/lawvm/blob/master/AGENTS.md EDIT: Ah, but what I

Fair point. I've added a clarification that the structural constraint holds across civil law, common law, and hybrid systems. Thanks.

Interesting indeed! What have you learned from the patent space and what kinds of questions can you answer after perhaps solving that domain?

I call it LawVM - interpret amendment statutes as "programs" and verifiably replay them to obtain actual consolidated i.e. current law as it stands (or where ambiguous, surface that) I was annoyed that in Finland there is no way t

There is a simple way to mitigate prompt injection. Just check metadata only: is this action by the LLM suspicious given trusted metadata, blanking out the data

Interesting. I've been just now exploring something related or tangential, but for Finnish governance (why not all countries eventually). Idea: Pull in all related docs and statements from the law and its process. And analyze its mecha

Author here. Thanks for the corrections. I revised the essay, my priors were off. Added Good Samaritan data (zero successful CPR lawsuits in 30 years), duty-to-rescue statutes across Europe, and a new section on self-defense showing the tra

Wow, that's a lot of security fixes. If there were so many security bugs, that would suggest that there's a lot more still to be found. Probably going to look into sandboxing the browser much more in the future...

When I was living in Edinburgh, I encountered the corner case of the upper levels of an apartment building having a different postcode from the lower levels. Everything online used the same address database so I wondered why I could never
