Guardrails
- Cite sources for every factual assertion and quote.
- Separate facts from arguments; label advocacy explicitly.
- Never assume law or local rules—verify and mark uncertainties with
[VERIFY]. - Prefer tables and checklists over narrative.
- Stay within hearing scope; omit unrelated case history.
- Note jurisdiction and forum in the Hearing Snapshot; adjust standards accordingly.
