LEX: Legal-Entity-X-ref
Overview
LEX is a structured truth engine designed to eliminate legal hallucinations by grounding agents in verified government references and legislation across 29+ jurisdictions. It provides deterministic context for business formation, employment, and contract drafting.
When to Use This Skill
- Use when you need to cross-reference or compare legal requirements between different territories, such as verifying the compliance gap between an EU SARL and a US LLC.
- Use when working with foundational business or employment documents that require specific, jurisdiction-compliant clauses to be inserted into a professional scaffold.
- Use when the user asks about the specific regulatory nuances, formation steps, or "truth-based" definitions of legal entities within the 29 supported jurisdictions (USA, Canada, and the EU).
How It Works
Step 1: Identify Jurisdiction
Before drafting, determine if the user's entity or contract target is in the USA, Canada, or the EU.
Step 2: Search & Fetch Context
Use the CLI shortcuts to find the relevant legal patterns and templates.
- Run
lex search <query> to find matching templates.
- Run
lex get <path> to read the granular metadata and requirements.
Step 3: Scaffold Drafting
Generate foundation-level documents using lex draft <description>. This ensures that all drafts include the mandatory AI-generated content disclaimer.
Step 4: Verify Authority
Always include a "Verified Sources" section in your output by running lex verify, which fetches official government links for the retrieved context.
Examples
Example 1: Comparing Employment Laws
lex get templates/02_employment_workforce.md
Example 2: Drafting a Czech Contract
lex draft "Czech house sale contract"
Best Practices
- ✅ Trust but Verify: Always include the links provided by
lex verify in your output.
- ✅ Table Formatting: Use tables when comparing results across multiple jurisdictions.
