Every Israeli receives official letters from government bodies in bureaucratic language that is hard to understand. Letters from the Tax Authority, National Insurance, municipality, or Land Registry are written in complex legal Hebrew, with references to law sections and terms most people do not know. The result: people miss deadlines, lose rights, or simply ignore important letters.

Author: skills-ilFormat, validate, and geocode Israeli addresses including postal code (mikud) lookup and CBS city code resolution. Use when user asks about Israeli addresses, "ktovet", postal codes, "mikud", city codes, or needs to format addresses for Israeli forms and systems. Supports Hebrew address formatting and Hebrew-English transliteration. Do NOT use for non-Israeli addresses.
Author: skills-ilComprehensive guide for Israelis in relocation abroad covering before, during, and after the move. Handles the Israeli side of the move: tax residency tests (Form 1348), Bituach Leumi and kupat cholim while living abroad, pension fund and keren hishtalmut handling, 10% landlord tax track for apartment rental, apostille at the Foreign Ministry, and toshav chozer / toshav chozer vatik benefits under Section 14. Use when the user asks about Israeli relocation (רילוקיישן), leaving Israel for work, dmei vitoor, kupat cholim redemption, Tofes 161 on exit, vehicle import on return, or re-establishing residency. Prevents expensive mistakes like double payment, losing kupat cholim continuity on return, or missing tax benefits. Do NOT use for aliyah to Israel (use israeli-aliyah-navigator), tourist visas, binding tax advice, or destination-country immigration questions.
Author: skills-ilRuns a structured check on whether an image or video is AI-generated, digitally manipulated, or authentic-but-miscaptioned, and produces a sourced verdict with a confidence level. Use when someone forwards a dramatic war or news photo or clip on WhatsApp or Telegram and you want to know if it is real, when a journalist or community moderator needs a verification report before sharing, or when a suspicious image or voice claims to be a known person. Combines signed provenance (C2PA, SynthID, EXIF), a visual inspection against an artifact checklist, and source tracing (reverse-image search, geolocation). It is a verifier, not a magic detector, and it says can't-verify honestly. Do NOT use for numeric claim fact-checking (use israeli-fact-checker), for generating deepfakes, or as legal forensic certification.
