Verification posture

Honesty disclosure (per CLAUDE.md). The Wave 1 citation manifest was authored from canonical statutory knowledge (bar-exam canonical citations for major estate-planning statutes). The _source_url field on every cell points to the official codified-statutes portal for the relevant jurisdiction. The live statute text was NOT fetched in this build session. Production ship requires a Wave 1 Agent A second pass that re-fetches each URL, validates the live statute text against the claim, and either confirms or resolves any PLACEHOLDER tokens.
