Swiss Legal Source & Authority Triage

Purpose

Use this skill to map the Swiss legal authority structure before producing a legal answer.

This skill does not provide Swiss legal advice. It helps an AI assistant identify the correct source layer, authority hierarchy, language/version checks, uncertainty flags, and human-review boundaries for Swiss legal research and legal-operations workflows.

Core thesis: for Swiss legal AI, route authority before generating an answer.

• The user asks whether a legal issue is federal, cantonal, communal, regulatory, contractual, professional, or mixed.
• The user asks for Swiss legal research sources, legal-source validation, or a legal source map.
• A contract, policy, memo, or compliance workflow claims to be governed by Swiss law.
• The answer could be affected by official-language versions, cantonal variation, regulator practice, pending reform, or register/legal-state evidence.
