Important Notes
- Topic briefs synthesize what is available in connected sources; they do not substitute for formal legal research
- If the topic requires current legal authority or case law, recommend the user consult a legal research platform (Westlaw, Lexis, etc.) or outside counsel
- Always note the limitations of the sources searched

Important Notes for Incident Briefs
- Speed matters. Produce the brief quickly with available information rather than waiting for complete information
- Flag any litigation hold or preservation obligations immediately
- Note privilege considerations (mark the brief as attorney-client privileged / work product if appropriate)
- If the incident may involve a data breach, flag applicable notification deadlines (e.g., 72 hours for GDPR)
- Recommend outside counsel engagement if the matter is significant
General Notes
- If sources are unavailable, note the gaps prominently so the user knows what was not checked
- For daily briefs, learn the user's preferences over time (what they find useful, what they want filtered out)
- Briefs should be actionable: every item should have a clear next step or reason for inclusion
- Keep briefs concise. Link to source materials rather than reproducing them in full
