 "laws": [
  "**Both sides heard.** A case opens only when both sides have filed; each claim names its term, what it alleges and its evidence.",
  "**The log is the witness.** Every claim is read against the agreement and the actions as logged, never against what either side says happened.",
  "**Neutral words.** Claims are quoted as filed and both sides set out in the same form; the machine says what the log shows, never who is right.",
  "**A person or an agreed rule decides.** A decision comes only from a named person who is not a party, or a rule both sides agreed whose condition the log shows.",
  "**Reasons on the record.** No decision is recorded without its reasons; each record entry is hashed, and a case changed later reads CHANGED.",
  "**Not a court.** Agent agreements are not yet recognised in law; this is a process two sides choose, and not legal advice."
