ip-uspto

What problem does it solve?

The ip-uspto skill turns a messy inventors’ disclosure into a USPTO-focused, submission-ready non-provisional utility patent application by coordinating drafting, multi-critic review, compliance checks, and a final package assembly.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Threaded patent drafting lifecycle: produces immutable, versioned “threads” that move through intake → inventorship → draft → parallel critics → revise → pre-flight → audit → finalize.
• Multi-critic rubric with legal guardrails: runs dedicated critics (e.g., §101, §112, claims structure, and prior-art positioning) using an 8-dimension scored rubric plus critical-flag short-circuits.
• USPTO mechanical compliance automation: performs deterministic pre-flight checks (paragraph numbering, abstract length, claim numbering, multiple-dependent rules, reference numeral coherence, and required headings) before review/audit advancement.
• Rendered drawings QC via a vision critic (optional): validates USPTO drawing rendering defects (reference numeral legibility, line weight/contrast, label placement, and “FIG. N” visibility) against the spec’s numeral map.
• Final submission package assembly: compiles spec/drawings PDFs plus ADS and fee-sheet placeholders and an inventorship attestation snapshot for attorney completion.

Quick Start

Use the ip-uspto skill to draft a USPTO non-provisional utility application for your invention and generate a submission-ready package by running the lifecycle commands in order for your thread.
