Risk explanation
The intended workload is privileged or confidential documents, so first evaluation should stay on synthetic or non-sensitive files until local storage and model boundaries are verified; It is a cited retrieval assistant rather than a lawyer, so any legal or compliance workflow still needs human review of every answer and citation.
