  "instructions": "Find out which already-published US federal final rules take effect in a date window, from which agency, and which CFR parts they amend. 400+ rules from the Federal Register, each with its effective date, its own DATES paragraph, the CFR parts affected, the document number and a verbatim quote of the Federal Register record. This is a compliance-calendar tool, not a Federal Register search engine: ask it what lands between two dates, what one agency has coming, or what is changing in a CFR part. Always report the rule's dates_paragraph alongside the effective date — rules phase in, set later compliance dates, and direct final rules can be withdrawn, and the bare date does not say so. The register is a snapshot taken on last_verified and covers rules published up to then; check federalregister.gov for anything published since.",
