What problem does it solve?

Managing attorney review bottlenecks slow down civil legal aid work because staff outputs need approval before they can go to clients or court; this skill provides a structured queue and action controls for supervision.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Queue triage and ordering: Surfaces Emergency items first, then prioritizes by funder-restriction and conflict status, and then by due timing and submitter.
• Controlled review actions with logging: Supports approve, edit-then-approve, return with a required note, and acknowledgement of live funder-restriction flags; all actions are recorded in history.
• Guardrails for compliance-sensitive issues: Blocks approval when conflicts are unresolved and prompts managing attorneys to resolve funder restrictions explicitly.
• Cross-skill state propagation: Releases approved work to the staffer outbox and propagates approval, return notes, flag acknowledgements, and conflict blocking to the originating matter’s case file.

Quick Start

Invoke the review queue to review what staff submitted and approve or return items for revision when the queue is enabled for formal review supervision.
