Closes the loop so דפנה's positions (written inline in the UI and
saved to analysis-and-research.md) automatically become binding
direction for the legal-writer agent — no manual copy-paste,
no bypass.
Backend:
- research_md.extract_chair_directions(path) returns a compact dict
with status (missing/empty/partial/complete), filled_count,
empty_count, and a reduced list of threshold_claims + issues each
with {id, number, title, direction}. Designed to be directly usable
as direction_doc by the writer.
- New MCP tool: drafting.get_chair_directions(case_number) wraps the
helper, resolves the case research file path via config.find_case_dir,
returns formatted JSON.
- Registered in server.py as mcp__legal-ai__get_chair_directions.
legal-writer agent update:
- Adds get_chair_directions to the tools list.
- New mandatory "שלב 1ב" before any block writing: call
get_chair_directions, branch on status.
- missing → halt, report "legal-analyst לא רץ עדיין"
- empty → halt, instruct Dafna to fill positions via the UI URL
- partial → halt unless user confirms; write only filled sections
- complete → proceed
- New "שלב 1ג" constructs an internal direction_doc from the
received chair rulings before writing block י.
- Block י section expanded with 5 binding rules:
1. Open each discussion with Dafna's ruling as the thesis
2. Frame the reasoning in her style (use get_style_guide phrases)
3. Match her tone (decisive vs nuanced)
4. Must NOT contradict her position — if she disagreed with your
own inclination, her position rules
5. Use legal_questions from the analysis file as the analytical
structure (principle question first, concrete application second)
- New bullet section for block יא: summarize each chair ruling
briefly, state final outcome, close with the signed date formula.
Verified all four status paths (missing/empty/partial/complete) via
local test. Now Dafna's workflow is fully end-to-end: she reads the
analyst report in the UI, fills "עמדת ועדת הערר" in each card, hits
blur to auto-save, then triggers legal-writer — which picks up her
positions as direction without any file shuffle.

New feature on case view: the analysis-and-research.md produced by the
legal-analyst agent is now rendered as structured cards in the UI,
with inline editing of "עמדת ועדת הערר" that writes directly back to
the markdown file (atomic rename).
Backend (research_md.py):
- parse(Path) → dict with header, prose sections, threshold_claims[],
issues[], conclusions, other_sections
- Tolerant field extractor handles both block ("**LABEL:**\ncontent")
and inline ("**LABEL:** content") variants
- Detects [ימולא ע"י יו"ר הוועדה] placeholder → empty chair_position
- update_chair_position(path, section_id, text) locates the exact
subsection by ordinal, replaces or appends the chair field, writes
atomically via temp file + os.replace
- Section IDs: threshold_N / issue_N (1-based)
Endpoints:
- GET /api/cases/{n}/research/analysis — returns parsed JSON or 404
- PATCH /api/cases/{n}/research/analysis/chair-position — {section_id, position}
Frontend (#page-case):
- New card "ניתוח משפטי ומחקר" below local-files card
- Prose sections as justified text panels (background + gold border)
- Threshold claims and issues as collapsible <details> items with
gold right-border on open, numbered pills
- Each item shows all extracted fields with label above content
- Chair position editor: gold-wash background, 📝 icon label, textarea
with placeholder prompt
- onblur → PATCH with save indicator: ⏳ שומר → ✓ נשמר HH:MM → fade
- Status pill next to each item title: "ממתין לעמדה" / "✓ עמדה נקבעה"
- First threshold claim opens by default, rest closed
- Card hidden entirely when no analysis file exists (404)
Tested against real file: case 1033-25 with 3 threshold claims and
6 issues, all chair positions correctly empty, update writes only the
targeted section, atomic rewrite preserves all other content.
