metis-strategy/metis-legal-drafting

Draft Statements of Work (SOWs) from client templates and Metis proposals, and review/redline Master Services Agreements (MSAs) from the Supplier perspective. Triggers on SOW drafting, MSA review, contract redlining, scope creep analysis, deliverable tables, invoice schedules, IP carve-outs, or any mention of SOW, MSA, master agreement, statement of work, redline, or contract review in the context of Metis Strategy engagements.

Discovery

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

This is an excellent skill description that thoroughly covers specific capabilities, provides abundant natural trigger terms, explicitly states both what the skill does and when to use it, and occupies a clearly defined niche. The description is well-structured, uses third person voice appropriately, and balances comprehensiveness with clarity. It serves as a strong example of how to write a skill description that enables accurate selection from a large pool of skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple specific concrete actions: draft SOWs from templates and proposals, review/redline MSAs, risk analysis, scope creep checking, deliverable tables, invoice schedules, IP carve-outs, indemnification review. Very detailed and actionable.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both 'what' (draft SOWs, review/redline MSAs from supplier perspective) and 'when' with an explicit 'Use this skill whenever...' clause listing numerous trigger scenarios and specific keyword mentions.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Excellent coverage of natural terms users would say: 'SOW', 'MSA', 'master agreement', 'statement of work', 'redline', 'contract review', 'draft an SOW', 'populate a client SOW template', 'scope creep', 'deliverable tables', 'invoice schedules', 'IP carve-outs'. These are terms consultants would naturally use.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Highly distinctive with a clear niche: consulting SOW/MSA work specifically for Metis Strategy engagements from the supplier perspective. The domain-specific terms (IP carve-outs, indemnification review, Metis proposals) make it very unlikely to conflict with generic document or legal skills.

Implementation

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

This is a strong, well-structured skill that provides highly actionable guidance for a complex domain-specific task. The two main workflows are clearly sequenced with appropriate validation gates, the technical patterns section provides executable code for common pitfalls, and external references are used effectively for progressive disclosure. The main weakness is moderate verbosity in some advisory sections (tone management, calibrating recommendations) that could be tightened without losing meaning.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The skill is generally well-written and most content earns its place, but there's some verbosity in explanatory passages (e.g., the 'Tone and Relationship Management' section includes coaching advice Claude already understands, and some bullet points restate concepts). The Metis Strategy Context section at the end includes some information Claude doesn't need explained. However, the domain-specific legal guidance and technical patterns are genuinely novel and necessary.

2 / 3

Actionability

The skill provides highly concrete, executable guidance throughout: specific python-docx code snippets for text replacement, SDT extraction, smart quote handling, table formatting, and file locking. The workflows include exact questions to ask consultants, specific thresholds (e.g., $250k for three-tier hierarchy), precise formatting specs (#1F3864 header color), and clear output formats (risk analysis tables, Word Compare workflow). The scope comparison methodology is particularly actionable with its word-by-word comparison approach and flagging criteria.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

Both main workflows are clearly sequenced with numbered steps and explicit validation checkpoints. The SOW workflow includes a scope comparison step before finalizing (step 8), the MSA workflow requires consultant approval before making edits (step 6), and the cross-document consistency check serves as a final validation. The skill explicitly states 'Don't start drafting until you have both' documents and 'Never edit the MSA without explicit direction' — these are clear gates that prevent premature or unauthorized actions.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

The skill effectively uses progressive disclosure by referencing three external files (references/firm-metadata.md, references/sow-patterns.md, references/msa-risk-checklist.md) at the appropriate points in each workflow, keeping the main SKILL.md as an actionable overview. References are one level deep and clearly signaled with bold 'Read X before starting' instructions. The content is well-organized with clear section headers for each workflow, technical patterns, and context.
