+# Amtsgraph
+
+**The open, validated graph of German public authorities — who is
+competent, where, and for what.**
+
+Built 2026-06-11 from official registers (Orts- und Gerichtsverzeichnis,
+PVOG/FITKO, Bundesagentur für Arbeit, Destatis, BayernPortal, OpenPLZ,
+xRepository). Every build passes a validation gate (coverage, collision,
+contiguity, benchmark checks) before release; every record carries
+provenance (source, URL, fetch timestamp).
+
+## Files
+
+| File | Rows | Content |
+|---|---|---|
+| `authorities.jsonl` | 19,745 | all authorities with contacts, provenance, external IDs |
+| `court_chains.jsonl` | 338,873 | instance chains per (plz, ortk, matter) |
+| `competences.jsonl` | 79,630 | kind × area assignments (rank 0 = apply here) |
+| `edges.jsonl` | 8,395 | parent / supervision / appeal / successor relations |
+| `places_courts.jsonl` | 14,057 | official court-resolution place register |
+| `municipalities.jsonl` | 10,950 | AGS/ARS spine with postal codes (M:N) |
+| `matters.jsonl` | 36 | legal-matter taxonomy (14 core + special) |
+| `caveats.jsonl` | 5,369 | warnings that must be surfaced with answers |
+
+## Resolution logic
+
+1. **Courts**: look up `places_courts` by postal code (+ locality when one
+   code spans several court districts), then `court_chains` by
+   `(plz, ortk, matter)` — rows ordered by `position` are the full
+   instance chain (role `court`) plus prosecution offices (role
+   `prosecution`). Join `authorities` for contacts and filing addresses.
+2. **Agencies**: map the user's municipality to its `ags` via
+   `municipalities`, then filter `competences` by `kind` and area
+   (`gemeinde` = 8-digit AGS, `kreis` = 5-digit prefix, `land` = 2-digit).
+   `rank 0` = the office to apply at; `rank 1` = supervisory body.
+3. **Always join `caveats`** for the scope you resolved — they flag
+   genuine ambiguities and register gaps. For legal use, an honest
+   warning beats a confident wrong answer.
+4. The organisational web (Bavaria): traverse `edges` with
+   `relation='parent'` for department hierarchies, `'supervision'` for
+   oversight, `'appeal'` for derived court appeal routes.
+
+## Important notes
+
+- General information, **not legal advice**; statutory exceptions to
+  competence rules exist that no dataset can capture.
+- Department-level depth covers Bavaria's 96 Kreisverwaltungsbehörden
+  (pilot); other Länder resolve at authority level.
+- Underlying records originate from official public registers; their
+  respective terms govern redistribution (see the source registry in the
+  GitHub repository). The pipeline and schema are Apache-2.0; this dataset is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
