canada-memo

The case_stressor pipeline produces a structured PI Case Assessment Memo backed by 340 real Ontario PI decisions. This skill is the agent's hook into that pipeline.

Trigger

Use this skill whenever the user's message starts with the word "Canada" / "canada" / "CANADA" (any case), with or without a comma after.

Examples that trigger:

• Canada, my child was playing soccer outside Target and got hurt
• canada slip and fall on icy sidewalk in Toronto
• CANADA: 55yo woman rear-ended on highway, soft tissue, treatment gap
• Canada — bicyclist hit by SUV in Ottawa

How to call

Strip the leading Canada (and any leading punctuation/whitespace) to get the fact pattern, then call:

from openclaw.skills.canada_memo.client import generate_memo
memo_text = generate_memo(facts)

Or via shell from within the OpenClaw harness:

cd ~/Specter && python3 -m openclaw.skills.canada_memo.client \
    "my child was playing soccer outside Target and got hurt"

The function returns a single markdown string. Print it verbatim as the WhatsApp reply — do not summarize, do not paraphrase, do not add headers. The memo already contains its own structure (PI CASE ASSESSMENT MEMO …).

What NOT to do

• Do not ask clarifying questions before running the memo. The corpus is fact-pattern-indexed; a thin query still returns useful comparables. The memo itself flags "facts not provided" gaps inside the WEAKEST POINTS section — let the memo do the asking.
• Do not call harvester_query.search for Canadian queries that match this trigger — that would route to the small Canada vector slice without running the full memo (stats + Claude analysis + 3 key precedents).
• Do not invent precedents. Everything the memo cites comes from real CanLII data already in case_stressor/chroma_db.

After the memo

The memo ends with:

TYPE "what if [changed fact]?" TO STRESS-TEST YOUR CASE

If the user's NEXT message starts with what if, route to the endpoint with the prior facts as and the new message as . (Future enhancement — for now the agent can re-run the baseline memo with adjusted filters.)
