Where does the legislative data come from?

The skill pulls primary data directly from the official Washington State Legislature web services (wslwebservices.leg.wa.gov) and supplemental details from official bill summary pages.

How does it prioritize bills?

Priority is assigned based on direct fiscal impact, proximity to legislative deadlines, and whether the bill is sponsored by legislators from the user's pre-configured local district.

Does this skill require external software?

It requires the Bun runtime to execute the discovery scripts and benefits from an Obsidian vault connection for long-term report storage and management.

How does this skill find bills without missing them?

Unlike standard keyword searches, this skill uses Committee-Based Discovery to query education committees directly via SOAP API, ensuring every bill assigned to those committees is captured regardless of the keywords used in the title.

Can I track bills from committees other than Education?

Yes, the skill includes a Tier 2 discovery phase that monitors fiscal, labor, and capital budget committees, then filters those bills for education-related impacts using specific keyword analysis.
