Route a contract issue to the right approver per the escalation matrix in `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/commercial-legal/CLAUDE.md`, and draft the ask. Use when the user says "who needs to approve this", "escalate this", "does this need GC sign-off", "route this for approval", or when another skill finds an issue that exceeds the reviewer's authority.

Manage matter workspaces — new, list, switch, close, or detach (practice-level). Use when a multi-client practitioner needs to create a matter, switch the active matter, list matters, archive a matter, or detach to practice-level context, or when another skill needs to know which matter it's working in.

EU AI Act per-system inventory — track each AI system's role (provider, deployer, importer, distributor, authorized representative, product manufacturer) and risk tier (prohibited, high-risk, limited, minimal, GPAI, GPAI+systemic). Role and tier are assessed per system, not per company. Use when the user says "ai inventory", "add an ai system", "what systems do we have", "classify this ai system", "eu ai act register", or "ai system registry".

Run an AI impact assessment — structured intake, risk analysis, regulatory classification per regime in scope, policy consistency diff, and recommendation with conditions. Uses the house-style structure learned from the seed impact assessment in `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ai-governance-legal/CLAUDE.md`. Use when user says "impact assessment for", "assess this AI use case", "run an AIA", "generate an AIA", "we need to document this AI system", "AI risk assessment for X", or follows a conditional triage result.

Routine client correspondence from templates — appointment confirmations, document requests, brief "we filed it" updates. Plain language, required elements, supervision routing. NOT substantive advice. Use when a student needs to send routine correspondence, an appointment confirmation, a document request letter, or a brief status note to a client.

First-pass privilege log review — make the obvious privilege calls and flag the hard ones for attorney review without making close calls. Use when the user says "review the privilege log", "priv log", "check privilege on these docs", or has a log to QA before production.

Keep the privacy policy current with practice. Two modes: weekly sweep of saved PIAs, DPA reviews, and triage results to find policy drift; or direct query for a proposed new practice. Use when the user asks "does our policy cover this", "we want to start doing X — does the policy need updating", "run the policy monitor", "policy sweep", or wants to find where the privacy policy no longer matches what the team actually does.

Build or update a chronology from declared document sources and uploads — dated events extracted, de-duped, and tagged by significance per the matter theory. Use when the user asks to build a chronology or timeline from a production or matter file, says "chron from the production" or "what happened when", or needs a working, statement-of-facts, or witness-specific timeline.

Generate or drill flashcards for black-letter memorization — Leitner-style buckets, per-subject markdown storage, drill mode with self-assessment. Use when the user says "drill flashcards", "make flashcards from", "quiz me on cards", or wants to memorize rules.

Issue, refresh, release, or report on legal holds — drafts the hold notice as .docx, updates legal_hold fields in _log.yaml, and calendars the next refresh. Use when the user says "issue a hold", "refresh hold", "release hold", or asks for a portfolio-wide hold status report.

Open source license compliance check for a dependency list, a single library, or outbound code. Use when reviewing a manifest, SBOM, or repo for copyleft obligations and license compatibility, when asked whether a library can ship, or when preparing code to be open-sourced.

Manage matter workspaces for multi-client practices — create, list, switch, close, or detach the active matter. Use when the user wants to create a new matter workspace, switch the active matter, list matters, archive a matter, or work at practice-level only without an active matter.

Triage an inbound demand letter — extract fields, cross-check the portfolio, assess merit, present response options with a recommendation, and hand off to matter-intake or demand-intake if escalation is warranted. Use when the user says "we got a demand letter", "triage this demand", or shares an incoming demand to evaluate.

Translates a contract review into a summary the business stakeholder will actually read. Not a legal memo — a two-minute answer to "can I sign this and what do I need to know." Use when user says "summarize for the business", "write this up for [stakeholder]", "explain this to procurement", "non-legal summary", or when a review is done and needs to go to someone outside legal.

Manage matter workspaces — new, list, switch, close, or detach (practice-level). File-management logic for keeping one client or engagement's context separate from every other. Use when working across multiple clients or matters, when the user says "new matter", "switch matter", "list matters", "close matter", or when any substantive skill needs to know which matter it's working in.

Quickly determine whether a processing activity needs a PIA, a mandatory GDPR DPIA, or can proceed — surfaces privacy policy conflicts and routes to the right next step. Use when the user asks "does this need a PIA", "triage this feature", "privacy check on X", "is this okay from a privacy perspective", or describes a new data processing activity, product feature, or vendor relationship.

Draft a unanimous written consent of the board or a committee in house format, with precedent search from the consents repository. Handles multi-resolution consents, director conflict flags, state-law notice requirements, and signatory tracking, with a built-in scope warning for major one-off actions. Use when user says "written consent", "unanimous consent", "board consent", "consent in lieu", "UWC", or describes an action needing board approval without a meeting.

Draft a demand letter from a completed intake, gated on a privilege / FRE 408 / waiver / admission checklist, with a .docx output, post-send checklist, and an offer to create a matter. Use when the user says "draft the demand", "write the [type] letter", or has a finished demand intake ready to turn into a sendable draft.

Trace how a contract has changed across its base agreement and all amendments — either a summary of all changes over time, or a provision trace for a specific clause. Use when the user says "what changed in this contract over time", "show me the amendment history", "where's the latest [clause]", "how has [provision] evolved", or uploads multiple versions of an agreement.

Structural feedback on a legal writing draft (memo, brief, paper, exam essay) — organization, analysis depth, clarity, citation form. NEVER rewrites the draft. Use when the user says "feedback on my memo", "read my draft", or "critique my brief".
