What it does

Lex is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Centralized 'Truth Engine' for cross-jurisdictional legal context (US, EU, CA) and contract scaffolding.

Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files (for example `findings.md`, `templates/01_business_foundation.md` and `templates/02_employment_workforce.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Project scaffolding. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Project scaffolding

Example prompts

  • “Truth Engine”
  • “/lex”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify Jurisdiction
  2. Search & Fetch Context
  3. Scaffold Drafting
  4. Verify Authority

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e53ce2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Lex loads about 872 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 389 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~872

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

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
bash
# Get the workforce template to compare US vs EU notice periods
lex get templates/02_employment_workforce.md
Show full SKILL.md (156 more words)Show less
Example 2: Drafting a Czech Contract
bash
# Create a house sale contract scaffold in Czech language
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.
  • ❌ No Guessing: If a jurisdiction is outside the US/EU/CA scope, state that it is outside the LEX "Truth Engine" coverage.
  • ❌ No Anecdotal Advice: Stick strictly to the findings in the templates or verified government domains.

Common Pitfalls

  • Problem: Legal hallucination regarding specific EU notice periods. Solution: Run lex get templates/02_employment_workforce.md to see the restrictive covenant comparison table.
  • @employment-contract-templates - For more specific HR policy phrasing.
  • @legal-advisor - For general legal framework architecture.
  • @security-auditor - For reviewing the final repository security.

Limitations

  • Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
  • Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
