New state plugin for Arizona, scaffolded from the marketplace pattern and authored with Arizona-specific substance (Ariz. R. Civ. P. / A.R.S. — no search-and-replace from another state), then fact-checked against the verbatim corpus. Court structure: - az-maricopa (Maricopa County Superior Court, Phoenix — largest court; Commercial Court) - az-pima (Pima County Superior Court, Tucson) - az-justice-courts (the limited-jurisdiction forum — civil cap, small claims, and residential eviction "special detainer"; the separate Justice Court Rules of Civil Procedure; the high-volume consumer-debt + eviction venue) - az-superior-courts (roll-up of the other 13 counties) - az-family-court (Family Department; the separate Arizona Rules of Family Law Procedure; legal decision-making / parenting time; protective orders) Six subject-matter bundles: az-consumer-debt (Arizona Consumer Fraud Act + collection-agency licensing + chain of title + the Mertola v. Santos credit-card acceleration SOL + the two-way A.R.S. § 12-341.01 fee exposure), az-family-law (community property + no-fault dissolution + covenant marriage + legal decision-making + income-shares child support + the 2023 spousal-maintenance guidelines), az-landlord-tenant (ARLTA + special-detainer eviction + the 5/10-day notice tracks + security deposits), az-personal-injury (pure comparative negligence + several liability/nonparty-at-fault + the Arizona constitutional prohibition on damages caps + the § 12-821.01 notice of claim), az-employment (Arizona Employment Protection Act + Arizona Civil Rights Act + Wage Act treble damages + Farber non-compete), and az-commercial-disputes (Maricopa Commercial Court + UCC + the 2019 Arizona LLC Act + AUTSA + civil racketeering). Plus the matter-neutral procedural core, including the distinctive Rule 26.1 mandatory disclosure / Rule 26.2 tiered-case discovery and the compulsory-arbitration framework. Corpora (both verbatim): Arizona Revised Statutes (12 topic files / ~60 sections) from azleg.gov via scripts/pull_arizona_statutes.py; Ariz. R. Civ. P. + Ariz. R. Evid. + Arizona Rules of Family Law Procedure + Justice Court Rules (~406 rules) from the courtrules.net mirror via scripts/pull_arizona_rules.py (azcourts.gov is gated), with the _file_is_stub guard. Depends on claude-legal-federal-laws via in-tree symlinks. Scripts format-check.py (Ariz. R. Civ. P. 10/7.1) + case-calendar.py (Ariz. R. Civ. P. 6 + A.R.S. § 1-301 holidays). 22 evals. A corpus-verified adversarial review fixed real errors before commit — the most consequential: the Mertola SOL holding (accrual runs from the first uncured missed payment regardless of acceleration, not upon acceleration), the landlord-tenant 5-day vs. 10-day notice tracks (had been conflated), the wage treble-damages multiplier (3x total, not 4x), the out-of-state answer authority (Rule 4.2(m), not Rule 12(a)), a Rule 8(c)/(d) subsection swap, and the jury- demand rule (Arizona preserves the right with no demand required). Wiring: registered in marketplace.json (metadata 0.24.0 -> 0.25.0); CLAUDE.md skills index + reference-corpora section + commands + repo layout; README listing + comparison-table row + repo tree; refresh-references.yml gains an `az` target. Lint: 275 skills, 0 failed; no cross-state references in the plugin. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
… remaining skills Adversarially fact-checked all 28 Arizona skills + the curated law-references files against the verbatim corpus on disk (ARCP / Ariz. R. Evid. / ARFLP / JCRCP + A.R.S.). The first review pass covered the 6 subject bundles + the procedural trio; this pass covers the remaining 19 skills and the reference files. Surgical corrections: - az-discovery / civil-rules.md: Rule 33 has NO 40-interrogatory cap — the number is governed by the Rule 26.2(f) tier limits (5/10/20). Removed the bogus 40. - az-pima: Pima County uses the FASTAR program (Pima LR 4.2 / ARCP 72(a)(2)), NOT ordinary compulsory arbitration — corrected the lower-value-civil routing. - az-quality-check: Rule 8 subsection swap — affirmative defenses are Rule 8(d) and admit/deny is Rule 8(c) (the skill had 8(c)/8(b)). - az-draft-motion / az-hearings: the oral-argument provision is Rule 7.1(d), not Rule 7.1(c) (which is "Rulings on Motions"). - az-draft-order: the default-judgment relief limit is Rule 54(d), not 54(c). - az-statewide-format: the caption form is prescribed by Rule 5.2(a) (Rule 10(a) routes to it), including the upper-left attorney/bar-number block. - az-file-packet: sensitive-data redaction is Rule 5.1(e); Rule 5.4 is sealing. - az-maricopa: Northeast Regional Court Center is in northeast Phoenix (not Mesa); "Certificate on Compulsory Arbitration" under Rule 72(e). - fees-and-costs.md: the Rule 68 sanction is 20% of the difference between the offer and the judgment (not double taxable costs); removed an unverifiable ARFLP offer-of-judgment claim. - key-cases.md: verified Toth v. Toth + Orme School v. Reeves cites. - Corpus header: commercial.md mislabeled A.R.S. § 44-1001 as the "Antitrust Act"; it is the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (Arizona's antitrust act is § 44-1401+). Confirmed clean (no errors): az-draft-declaration (the § 12-2222 → Rule 80(c) correction holds), az-draft-note, az-schedule-hearing, az-submit-order, az-fact-check, az-justice-courts (small-claims cap correctly deferred to corpus = $5,000 per 2025 SB 1022), az-superior-courts, az-pro-se, az-family-court, evidence-rules.md, family-rules.md, citation-format.md. All 28 skills normalized to version 0.1.0 (unreleased plugin). Lint: 275 skills, 0 failed; no broken links; no cross-state references.
