PUBLIC RECORD / WHAT CHANGED

OpenLegalCore has completed the public launch path for Word Connector v0.1.0-beta.1. The public repository and tagged Release are now joined by the component dossier, Component register, homepage feature, Roadmap outcome and project News record.

The Word for the web workflow accepts either a standalone question or an explicitly selected passage. The connector sends that bounded request to OLC Engine directly or through an explicit Open WebUI-mediated route, returns source-linked analysis beside the draft and leaves the document unchanged.

This record completes the public presentation of the existing source-only beta; it does not announce a second software release, a stable version, a hosted OpenLegalCore service or an Office Store listing. The 6 September release record remains the immutable technical publication record for v0.1.0-beta.1.
