What problem does it solve? Bringing a new legal matter into a litigation portfolio often happens ad hoc, producing inconsistent records that cannot be compared or rolled up later. This Skill runs every new matter through the same structured intake so the portfolio stays uniform and auditable. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Uniform Intake Workflow: Walks through identification, conflicts check, source, risk triage, materiality, outside counsel, internal owners, legal hold, key dates, and initial posture. - Conflicts Gate Enforcement: Blocks record creation when conflicts are not-run, offering documented paths to clear, defer, or bypass with a permanent override record. - Structured Output Generation: Creates a narrative matter.md, seeds an append-only history.md, and appends a schema-conformant row to _log.yaml for portfolio rollups. - Use Case: A demand letter arrives from a counterparty. Run the intake to capture the matter details, confirm conflicts status, assign outside counsel, flag the missing legal hold, and commit a consistent log row the status skill can aggregate. ## Quick Start Say "intake this new matter: Acme v. Us 2026" and answer the intake questions to generate the matter record.
