UPL Guardrail with Counsel-Gated Federal Channel Routing is the operational rule that a pro-se complainant directly addresses bar-disciplinary and administrative forums (state disciplinary authorities, state UPL committees, EOUST in non-litigation posture, public-record platforms) while federal-agency communications that affect an active case (US Trustee positions on a debtor, USAO referrals, federal-criminal referrals) route only through retained counsel. The rule preserves access to the highest-leverage forums while foreclosing counter-UPL retaliation. State-bar caution about UPL exists everywhere; the novelty is the explicit dual-track architecture, embedded into every drafting decision and into the project's tooling deny-lists.
