Documents >15K chars must be split by chapter/section and extracted
in parts. If extract_claims times out, retry with chunks or extract
manually. This prevents the Matmon document issue (108K chars, 4x timeout).

Test run on case 1130-25 revealed critical gaps. This commit fixes:
HEARTBEAT.md (#1, #11):
- Agents MUST wake CEO after completing any task (wakeup request)
- New "blocked" status option — agents cannot mark "done" if something failed
- Fallback: direct DB insert if API wake doesn't work
legal-analyst.md (#2):
- New step 6: completeness checks BEFORE finishing
- Verify all appeal/response documents extracted successfully
- Verify all extracted documents produced claims
- Verify classification is correct (no claims from committee)
- If any check fails → status = "blocked", not "done"
legal-ceo.md (#3, #6, #7, #12, #13, #14, #15):
- Step A rewritten with 3 sub-checks:
A1: extraction completeness (no missing documents)
A2: negative checks (wrong classification, abnormal counts, missing parties)
A3: methodology compliance (syllogisms, CREAC prep, steel-man, etc.)
- Any failure blocks progress to step B
legal-qa.md (#6 reinforcement):
- New step 2b: negative checks on the written decision
- Missing issues, bare quotes, empty formulas, mixed findings/conclusions
Also:
- Synced all agent files to /home/chaim/legal-ai/ (Paperclip reads from there)
- Synced methodology + lessons + corpus docs
- Fixed claim classification in DB: 20 committee/applicant claims → response (#5)
Remaining gaps (3):
- #4: Paperclip cache may need restart to pick up new definitions
- #7: Matmon document retry (25K words, 0 claims extracted)
- #9: 53 appellant claims may need synthesis (high but not blocking)

"בית ספר להחלטות" Phase 2 — the system now has formal analytical
methodology for building quasi-judicial decisions, separate from
Dafna's writing style (SKILL.md) and content checklists.
What was done:
- Downloaded 5 authoritative sources (~341K words): FJC Judicial
Writing Manual (1991+2020), Garner Legal Writing in Plain English,
Posner How Judges Think, Scalia/Garner Making Your Case
- Extracted principles from all sources into intermediate docs
- Synthesized into docs/decision-methodology.md (3,400 words,
12 sections, 10 guiding principles)
- Integrated methodology into block-yod prompt via {methodology_guidance}
- Restructured legal-writer agent workflow to follow analytical stages
- Made "answer all claims" flexible (bundle/skip via chair_directions)
- Added methodology compliance check (#7) to legal-qa agent
- Updated all knowledge files (CLAUDE.md, SKILL.md, lessons, corpus)
Three-layer architecture:
1. Methodology (decision-methodology.md) — universal, how to think
2. Content checklists (lessons.py) — specific per appeal subtype
3. Style (SKILL.md) — Dafna's personal writing patterns

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.

- Add "עמדת ועדת הערר" placeholder to legal-analyst agent template
for each legal issue, to be filled by the chair as guidance for the
writing agent
- Fix green checkmark not showing for proofread documents (treat
'proofread' status same as 'completed')
- Show time alongside date in local files listing
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add delete_document_chunks for reprocessing, save extracted text to disk
- Expand case directory structure (original/extracted/proofread/backup)
- Update classifier patterns (תגובה, הודעת עמדה)
- Fix proofreader agent paths for new directory layout
- Update HEARTBEAT to notify on every task completion
- Improve bidi_table with LRE/PDF directional embedding
- Add Paperclip project verification and auto-close setup issue
- Add auto-sync-cases.sh for Gitea synchronization
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Remove cases/new|in-progress|completed subdivision (status managed in DB)
- Rename documents/original → documents/originals (consistent plural)
- Move exports from global data/exports/ into cases/{num}/exports/
- Add documents/research/ for case law and analysis files
- Update all agents, scripts, config, web API endpoints, and DB paths

New: scripts/notify.py — sends via SMTP (notify@marcus-law.co.il → paperclip+chaim@marcus-law.co.il)
Updated: HEARTBEAT.md — agents must send email when waiting for human decision
Triggers: outcome choice, direction approval, QA failures, review ready.

All agent output — comments, status, errors, summaries, thinking — must be in Hebrew.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two issues that caused QA agent to fail:
1. save_block_content saved to DB only — now also rebuilds drafts/decision.md
2. legal-writer.md now has explicit mandatory step: case_update(status="drafted")
Without these, workflow_status reports has_draft=false and QA can't run.

brainstorm_directions tool uses claude -p subprocess which times out
when called from inside a claude session (agent). CEO should think
about directions directly — it already has all the context.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
CEO now follows a step-by-step interactive flow:
A. Check status and what's been done
B. Summarize case + ask Chaim for outcome (1/2/3)
C. Read response, run brainstorm, present directions
D. Read direction choice, approve, launch writer agent
E. Monitor writing progress
F. QA and export
All interaction happens through Paperclip comments.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Manages the decision writing pipeline:
- Creates issues and assigns to specialist agents
- Tracks status across all active cases
- Reports to human (Chaim) when approvals needed
- Never writes or analyzes directly — delegates
All 4 specialist agents now report to CEO.

Symlinked to Paperclip instructions directory for each agent.
Single source of truth: .claude/agents/ files → symlinked to Paperclip.
Cleaned duplicate soul_md from DB metadata.

Complete agent pipeline for decision writing:
1. legal-analyst (existing) — extract claims/responses/replies
2. legal-researcher (new) — analyze precedents, plans, protocols
3. legal-writer (new) — write decision blocks in Dafna's style
4. legal-qa (new) — validate before export (6 checks)
All agents use claude_local adapter (Claude Code session, zero API cost).
Each has YAML frontmatter with specific tools and detailed Hebrew instructions.

Defines the agent's role, tools, document type rules, and workflow.
Linked to Paperclip agent via --agent legal-analyst extraArg.
Key rules:
- Claims only from appeal docs, responses from response docs, replies from supplementary
- Never extract from precedents, plans, or protocols
- Must report results to Paperclip before finishing
