SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Supervising attorneys need a fast, consistent way to author practice-area guides that control how student-facing legal-clinic skills behave (intake questions, teaching posture, supervision review gates, cross-checks, and local rules) without rewriting logic in multiple places.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Supervisor-authored practice-area configuration: Creates or revises a per-practice-area markdown guide that student-facing skills read to align questions, pedagogy, and routing.
  • Role-gated, safety-first setup: Stops immediately unless the user is the supervising attorney, and redirects students to the proper ramp flow.
  • Pedagogy posture + review gates: Collects defaults and per-document overrides (assist/guide/teach) and maps work-product to required supervisor sign-off versus student-ready items.
  • Cross-plugin checks and local rules capture: Documents which external checks students should run and what supervision wrapper applies, plus practice-area-specific courts, forms, and local rules.
  • Test run preview: Offers a way for supervisors to see what a student would experience by running a draft flow under the configured posture.

Quick Start

Frequently Asked Questions about build-guide

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure intake questions and teaching posture for a legal clinic workflow?

Configuring intake questions and teaching posture requires a supervising-attorney practice-area guide that defines pedagogy defaults and routing logic for student-facing legal-clinic skills.

What are supervisor review gates and how do they work in a legal clinic?

Supervisor review gates map student work-product to required sign-off items versus student-ready items. They are configured within a practice-area guide to control supervision routing.

Can a law student use the build-guide skill to set up clinic practice-area rules?

No, the build-guide skill enforces role validation and stops immediately unless the user is a supervising attorney. Students are redirected to the proper ramp flow.

How do I document cross-plugin checks and local court rules for my legal clinic?

You can document cross-plugin checks and local rules by authoring a practice-area configuration guide that specifies external student checks, courts, forms, and jurisdictional rules.

Is there a way to preview how a student experiences the configured clinic workflow?

Yes, supervisors can run a test preview to see what a student would experience by executing a draft flow under the currently configured teaching posture and intake settings.
