The Jurisdiction Notice points users to legal.local.md, but the README later instructs creating the file inside the .claude/ directory. To avoid confusion about where the config lives, consider referencing the full path (e.g., .claude/legal.local.md) or otherwise clarifying the expected location here as well.

Use .claude/legal.local.md instead of legal.local.md in the Jurisdiction Notice to match the Quick Start instructions.
