Lexis: not implemented

SkillDev tools

Use when the user says 'get this case from Lexis', 'pull it off Lexis+', 'export the opinion from Nexis', 'use Lexis instead of Westlaw', or names Lexis/Lexis+/Nexis/Protege as the retrieval source. NOT IMPLEMENTED, this skill exists only to route that request to workflows:westlaw, which is implemented. It retrieves nothing itself.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Lexis: not implemented skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by edwinhu/workflows in skills/lexis/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

What this skill carries — grep references/ for any subject the names below miss: !d=${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}; command -v skill-toc >/dev/null 2>&1 && exec skill-toc "$d"; s=$HOME/.claude/skills/plugin-utils/bin/skill-toc; [ -x "$s" ] && exec "$s" "$d"; echo "(skill-toc unavailable: references and scripts are NOT listed here — install the plugin-utils plugin, or start a new session so its bin/ reaches PATH)"

There is no Lexis retrieval procedure here. Nobody has driven the Lexis UI, so there are no measured selectors, endpoints or steps to follow.

Use workflows:westlaw. It is measured end to end and produces a publisher-keyed DOCX with star pagination — the same artifact a Lexis route would be built to produce. If the case is available on Westlaw, the answer to "get it from Lexis" is to get it from Westlaw.

What we know — UNVERIFIED

Both flagged because they come from documentation and general knowledge, not from a session:

  • Lexis offers delivery formats comparable to Westlaw's, including Word and RTF. Which dialog controls exist, whether star pagination is a separate option, and what OPC layout the export uses are all unknown.
  • Lexis is rolling out an MCP connector (Protégé). If it delivers verbatim case text rather than synthesized research output, it may make browser driving unnecessary — but whether it does is unverified, and Thomson Reuters' CoCounsel connector notably does not (see the westlaw skill).

If you implement this

Drive the UI and record what you measure. Do not write a plausible-looking procedure from the Westlaw one by analogy — a wrong procedure for a real UI costs more than this stub does, because it reads as authoritative and fails silently partway through.
