What problem does it solve?
This skill prevents inconsistencies by comparing a proposed handbook update against the current handbook and surfacing downstream impacts before publication.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Change diffing: Produces a clear section-level diff between the proposed language and the current handbook text.
- Cross-reference impact analysis: Identifies where the changed section is referenced (other policies, defined terms) and flags what may no longer hold.
- State supplement impact assessment: Checks whether state supplements modify the changed section, flags obsolete or incomplete supplement logic, and highlights when a new supplement may be needed.
- Promise/risk flagging: Flags potential risk when the update reduces promised benefits, noting that some jurisdictions may require additional notice or consideration.
Quick Start
Ask the handbook-updates skill to update the handbook by diffing your proposed PTO policy language against the current version, then list any cross-reference and state supplement changes required.
