## Overview

Draft and validate a simple will with optional testamentary or pour-over trust in the USA.

## Getting Started

Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the *USA Simple Will and Trust* skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.

## Example conversation

**You:** I need a simple will that leaves everything to my spouse and pours over into our living trust if we're both gone.

**Agent:** I'll draft a will naming you as testator, your spouse as primary beneficiary and executor, and a residue clause that pours over into your existing revocable living trust. I'll run **will_check** to confirm testator, declaration of intent, executor, disposition, and signature block—and that the trust reference is clear.

## Output excerpt

### Will and pour-over excerpt

**Declaration** — I, [Name], declare this to be my last will and testament and revoke all prior wills.

**Executor** — I appoint [Spouse Name] as executor of this will. If [Spouse Name] is unable or unwilling to serve, I appoint [Alternate Name].

**Residue and pour-over** — I give all the rest and residue of my estate to the trustee of the [Name] Revocable Living Trust dated [Date], to be held and distributed according to that trust agreement.

## Extension and validation

The skill includes **will_check**, which validates the will for: testator identification, declaration of will/intent, executor appointment, disposition of assets (beneficiaries or residue), and signature block. If the document mentions a trust or pour-over, it also checks for a clear trust reference. Run it after drafting to confirm required elements are present.
