general-counsel-advisor

General Counsel advisory for startups: contract review (MSA, SaaS, NDA, DPA, employment), IP strategy, term sheet decoding, and regulatory landscape mapping. Use when reviewing any contract or term sheet, deciding when to engage outside counsel, defining IP strategy, evaluating regulatory exposure (HIPAA, GDPR, FDA, fintech), or when user mentions general counsel, GC, legal review, contract risk, term sheet, IP assignment, or regulatory exposure. NOT a substitute for licensed counsel — surfaces questions to bring to qualified attorneys.

Quality

Content

86%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

A well-structured skill body: executable commands, bundled scripts that exist and run, four clearly sequenced workflows, and clean one-level-deep reference structure. Weaknesses are minor — a redundant inline Keywords list, a duplicated disclaimer, and the absence of explicit validation/feedback loops in the workflows.

Suggestions

Remove the inline Keywords section (or trim it to terms not already in the frontmatter description) and drop the duplicated footer disclaimer — both duplicate content already carried by the frontmatter and opening paragraph.

Add an explicit validation/feedback step to the workflows, e.g., Workflow 1 step 4: 'Re-run contract_risk_scanner.py on the redlined contract to confirm HIGH findings are resolved before bringing it to counsel', and Workflow 2: 'If the analyzer errors on the JSON, fix the field mapping and re-run'.

Cut common-knowledge one-liners (e.g., copyright arising automatically on creation) or push them into references/ip_and_regulatory.md, keeping only startup-specific deadlines and traps in SKILL.md.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is dense and actionable, but the ~40-term Keywords section duplicates frontmatter triggers, the disclaimer appears twice (intro paragraph and footer), and a few bullets restate knowledge Claude already has ("Copyright — automatic on creation, but register for statutory damages eligibility"). Efficient with minor trims — not 5, since these tokens don't all earn their place; not 3, since there is no padded over-explanation.

4 / 5

Actionability

Quick Start gives copy-paste commands with a bundled-sample fallback ("uses bundled sample if no path given"), both bundled scripts exist and are executable, and the Output Standard is a fill-in template. The single indirection (term-sheet JSON schema via `term_sheet_analyzer.py --help`) is explicitly directed and the schema is documented in the script itself. Not 4: no executable gap remains for the common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

Four numbered workflows with clear sequences and some checkpoints ("Always have a securities/venture attorney review before signing", "engage a specialist counsel before building"), but no explicit validate-then-retry feedback loops (e.g., re-run the scanner after redlining, verify the JSON parses before analysis). Matches 'clear sequence with most checkpoints; minor validation gaps' — not 5. No destructive/batch cap applies since operations are read-only analyses.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

SKILL.md is a ~150-line overview with three well-annotated reference files (all of which exist) and two bundled scripts linked from Quick Start; references are one level deep (reference files point only to scripts, no nested md-to-md chains). Clear overview, easy navigation, content appropriately split.

Description

96%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

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

A strong description: concrete capability list, explicit what-and-when structure, and comprehensive trigger terms with synonyms. The only weakness is mild overlap risk from broad terms like 'legal review' alongside compliance-focused skills.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

"contract review (MSA, SaaS, NDA, DPA, employment), IP strategy, term sheet decoding, and regulatory landscape mapping" lists multiple concrete capabilities with enumerated sub-types, comprehensively covering the GC role. Not 4: there are no minor coverage gaps within the declared scope.

5 / 5

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what ("General Counsel advisory for startups: contract review..., IP strategy, term sheet decoding, and regulatory landscape mapping") and when ("Use when reviewing any contract or term sheet... or when user mentions..."). Not 4: the 'when' clause is already explicit and concrete.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Natural trigger phrases ("general counsel, GC, legal review, contract risk, term sheet, IP assignment, or regulatory exposure") plus regime acronyms (HIPAA, GDPR, FDA, fintech) cover what users would actually say, including the synonym pair GC/general counsel. Not 4: common variations are not missing.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

"General Counsel advisory for startups" is a clear niche with distinctive triggers (GC, term sheet, IP assignment), matching 'mostly distinct; minor overlap risk'. Not 5: the generic terms "legal review" and "contract risk" could overlap with adjacent compliance/legal skills that share regulatory triggers (e.g., HIPAA).
