SKILL: lkb-enrichment

Use when: adding Layer 2 data to LKB entries, verifying LKB accuracy, or fixing wrong legal data.

What Is LKB Enrichment

LKB entries currently have Layer 1 (legal knowledge). v11.0 needs Layer 2 (document components) added to each entry. This skill guides enrichment.

LKB 2-Layer Model

| Layer | Fields | Purpose | |-------|--------|---------| | Layer 1: Legal Knowledge | primary_acts, limitation, facts_must_cover, mandatory_averments, defensive_points, drafting_red_flags, coa_guidance | Tells LLM WHAT law to apply | | Layer 2: Document Components | available_reliefs (with prayer_text), jurisdiction_basis, valuation_basis, legal_basis_text | Tells LLM WHAT structural content to use |

Both layers go to LLM as structured context in the prompt.

Layer 2 Fields to Add

available_reliefs (most important)

List of reliefs with exact prayer text. LLM uses prayer_text verbatim in prayer section.

"available_reliefs": [
    {
        "type": "damages",           # relief category
        "subtype": "compensatory",   # specific kind
        "statute": "S.73 ICA",       # statutory basis
        "prayer_text": "decree for damages in the sum of Rs.{{AMOUNT}} on account of breach of contract",
        "condition": None,           # when to include (None = always)
    },
    {
        "type": "interest",
        "subtype": "pre_suit",
        "statute": "S.34 CPC",
        "prayer_text": "interest at the rate of {{RATE}}% per annum from {{DATE}} till date of filing",
    },
    {
        "type": "interest",
        "subtype": "pendente_lite",
        "statute": "Order XX Rule 11 CPC",
        "prayer_text": "pendente lite and future interest at such rate as this Hon'ble Court deems fit",
    },
    {
        "type": "costs",
        "statute": "S.35 CPC",
        "prayer_text": "costs of the suit",
    },
    {
        "type": "general",
        "prayer_text": "such other and further relief(s) as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper",
    },
],

jurisdiction_basis

"jurisdiction_basis": "Section 20 CPC — where cause of action arose wholly or in part",
# or: "Section 16 CPC — where immovable property is situated (situs jurisdiction)"
# or: "Section 17 CPC — property in multiple jurisdictions"

valuation_basis

"valuation_basis": "Amount of damages claimed (for court fee and pecuniary jurisdiction)",
# or: "Market value of suit property"
# or: "Amount of rent arrears claimed"

Enrichment Process

1. Read existing LKB entry in lkb/causes/{file}.py
2. Check what Layer 2 fields already exist (some entries may have partial data)
3. Add available_reliefs — list ALL reliefs applicable for that cause type
4. Add jurisdiction_basis — which CPC section determines jurisdiction
5. Add valuation_basis — what determines suit valuation
6. Verify prayer_text matches actual court prayer wording
7. Run tests to ensure no regression

LKB Accuracy Verification

When enriching, also verify existing Layer 1 data:

• Limitation article — check against Limitation Act schedule
• Primary acts — check section numbers exist in actual act
• Superseded acts — check for repealed laws (Evidence Act 1872 → BSA 2023)
• Red flags — check legal accuracy of warnings

Known Corrections (2026-03-14)

• Art 67 → Art 64 (recovery_of_possession_tenant)
• Art 58 → Art 33 (easement)
• S.20A → S.41(ha) SRA (specific_performance)
• Art 55 → Art 44 (guarantee_recovery)
• Art 55 → UNKNOWN (indemnity_recovery)
• "S.73 proviso" → "Explanation to S.73 ICA"

Rules

• prayer_text must match actual court prayer wording — not generic
• Layer 2 fields are document-AGNOSTIC — same reliefs for plaint and counter-claim
• Do NOT put document-specific structure in LKB — that's the schema's job
• Verify against bare act text, not memory
• When unsure about limitation article, use "UNKNOWN" with description
• available_reliefs must cover ALL reliefs for that cause type (including costs + general)
