Every federal rule that gets proposed generates a public record: a docket, the agency's documents, and the comments people file on it. That record is public but awkward to work with — paginated APIs, rate limits, no bulk access, and no way to join it to the rest of the federal picture.

Spicy Regs turns it into files you can query. A nightly pipeline reads [regulations.gov](https://www.regulations.gov) data (via the public [Mirrulations](https://github.com/MoravianUniversity/mirrulations) mirror) plu
