What it does
rank_authority applies court-level authority multipliers to a list of decisions and returns the re-ranked list, along with the multiplier table it used. It's a re-ranking step for decisions you've already gathered (for example, from Search Slovak Case Law or Get interpretation), boosting decisions from higher-authority courts.
Like every tool in this connector, it is read-only, covers Slovak law only, and its output is informational, not legal advice.
Inputs

Court-level authority multipliers
| Court | Multiplier |

Example
After gathering a list of decisions from Search Slovak Case Law, the calling AI passes them to rank_authority to re-order them so that, say, a Constitutional Court decision outranks a district court decision with a similar raw relevance score — surfacing the most authoritative source first.
Notes
rank_authorityis a deterministic, in-memory transform — no database lookup and no LLM call — but it still debits your monthly corpus quota (see Usage limits).- It does not issue a provenance receipt.
