Controller, EU recitals
What the recitals mean for the role of controller: the obligations, the articles carrying them, the workflows that get you there and what most often fails. Every row carries article, reading date and hash.

Risk points
- The legal basis is chosen once and never retested when the purpose changes.
What forces a redo
- The node hash changes, the text behind the row is no longer the same.
- The reading date moves forward, the row has been re-read against the source.
- A timeline passes, the requirement starts to apply or tightens.
As data
- The same node as data: add ?format=json to the address, or ?format=agent for receipt and dependencies.

The NovaCopilot models
The decision model
In: A role, a legal act and the situation in plain words.
Out: The obligations that reach the role, the article behind them and what remains.
When: When the question is whether a requirement applies to you, and why.
The difference model
In: A checksum already used and the date of the last reading.
Out: What changed since then: checksum, reading date, passed deadline and rows to revisit.
When: When earlier work is reused and has to be checked first.
The obligation model
In: A legal act or an article, with or without a role filter.
Out: The obligation in the register's wording, the role it reaches, canonical address and reading date.
When: When the answer has to be citable article by article.
Example for an agent
curl -s "https://legal.exploreworldai.com/en/novacopilot/eu-skal/roll/controller?format=agent"- canonical, the address to cite
- node_hash, the checksum for the next comparison
- corpus_version, the corpus version that answered
- freshness.read_at, the reading date of the row
- freshness.next_check, when a new check is reasonable
- citation.string, the finished citation
- agent.receipt, the receipt of the call, without a key
