After analyzing all 24 building_permit decisions in style_corpus DB
(not just the 2 local files), refined two anti-patterns:
1. Sub-headings: actually permitted when block-yod handles 3+ distinct
legal issues (e.g., 1079-24 had "הבקשות לפסילה" / "מעמד המבקשת
וזכות עמידה" / "עותרים ציבוריים"). The earlier rule of "no
sub-headings except academic cases" was too strict — based only on
small local sample.
2. Paragraph numbering: discovered it's an evolutionary pattern, not
a static rule. Pre-2025 decisions had sequential paragraph numbers
(1, 2, 3 throughout); recent decisions (1126-25, 1128-25, 1130-25,
1194-25) abandoned it for narrative flow. The agent should NOT add
paragraph numbers — the new style.
The (1)...(2)...(3)... in-paragraph enumeration ban remains absolute —
0/33 final decisions used it. Distinction now made explicit:
in-paragraph enumeration ≠ paragraph-level numbering (former always
forbidden; latter is evolutionary).
Updated:
- docs/daphna-voice-fingerprint.md — corpus stats, refined anti-patterns
- .claude/agents/legal-writer.md — checklist with new distinctions

Synthesized two voice documents from corpus reading:
- docs/voice-1130-25.md: deep read of case 1130-25 block-yod (5000 words),
extracting the 9-movement funnel architecture, 8 reasoning templates,
10 'we' verbs with their distinct functions, the 'akhen...ulam' pattern,
pacing/silence principles, and the deliberative meta-narrative.
- docs/daphna-voice-fingerprint.md: cross-corpus synthesis of 10 finals
(1 planning + 9 appraisal levy). Identifies 10 invariants, 5 opening
modes mapped to outcome certainty, mandatory ברמ 3644/13 preamble for
shamai cases, copy-paste templates, and 7 anti-patterns to avoid.
Updated .claude/agents/legal-writer.md:
- Added voice docs as MUST-READ before block-yod (was missing the deep
voice layer; only had surface style_guide patterns)
- Replaced the ' (1)...(2)...(3)...' enumeration template with the 5 opening
modes (the enumeration was a known anti-pattern Daphna always removes)
- Added the 'we' verbs catalog with explicit functions
- Made 'אכן...אולם' pattern mandatory for issues with substantial
counter-arguments (was vaguely 'אמנם...אולם')
- Added mandatory ברמ 3644/13 preamble for 8xxx shamai cases
- Added self-citation triple-mode (refer/defer/distinguish) — Daphna's
emerging practice of building personal jurisprudence
- Added 8-item anti-patterns checklist for post-write review
- Replaced block-yod-alef section with proper 4-paragraph closing
template (process narrative → outcome → costs → date)
