legal rights roles and skills, via rhachet

purpose

rhight = rights + right

this repo provides roles for legal research, analysis, and preparation:

• legal rights — what you're entitled to
• what's right — the correct interpretation (legally, intentionally, morally)
• who's right — dispute resolution

law is code. rules that govern behavior, enforced by systems. these roles help navigate that code.

mascot

this repo houses the eagle 🦅 — who soars above the landscape to survey the terrain and spot what matters from above.

why eagles? because they embody the principles of good legal work:

1. 🦅 soar high — see the full landscape
2. 👁️ sharp vision — spot the details that matter
3. 🪶 precise — strike with accuracy
4. 🏔️ claim peaks — identify what's defensible

the eagle wields:

• 🌎 globe — for patenter — to survey prior art from a global perspective
• 🪶 feather — for copyrighter — to protect the written word
• 🪖 helm — for trademarker — to guard the brand in battle
• 🏛️ column — for permiter — to cite the code that governs construction
• 🔗 chainlink — for regulator — to compose the bounds of social contracts
• 🔒 lock — for obligator — to secure the duties and terms
• 🦺 vest — for indemnifier — to protect against claims and liability
• ⚖️ scales — for counselor — to weigh exposure and guide review

utilities

🔎 transcriber

• scale: document-level, content extraction
• focus: OCR, text extraction, format conversion
• maximizes: accuracy of scanned document transcription

used to extract text from image-based PDFs and scanned documents for downstream use.

note: transcriber is a utility role that supports legal research but isn't itself a legal role. it lives here for now but may move to a different registry in the future.

why open source

to help folks navigate legal systems more effectively, mutually. we all gain from transparent and open source legal exploration.

for lawyers: contribute upstream to help communities and advertise your expertise. fork and specialize to leverage your own curated robots. (want help to deploy your own specialized robot clones into your practice? let us know, we consult)

for normies: leverage open source legal exploration. although it is certainly not legal advice and you should always consult a lawyer before you make any decision, this gives you a robot clone to discuss with and explore ideas with.

let's raise the floor. mutually.
