Lawyers receive messy folders of case materials—contracts, recordings, court documents, chat logs—and must manually build consistent case archives. This Skill automates the creation of standardized directory structures and management files for litigation, consultation, trademark, and patent matters.
Ask the AI to create a new case archive by saying: organize the case materials in this folder into a standard litigation case structure with case number, client name, and cause of action.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Provide the case materials folder path and optionally the case type, client name, and case number. The Skill detects the matter type, creates the preset directory structure, classifies each file by keyword rules, and generates management files like case info and task lists.
It supports four presets: litigation with 12 directories, consultation with 2 directories, trademark with 2 sub-templates (registration or opposition/invalidation), and patent with 3 sub-templates (application, review/invalidation, search/other). Sub-templates are selected automatically by business subtype.
Yes. The Skill mandates cp -p or mv for all file operations so modification times are preserved, since lawyers rely on file mtimes to reconstruct contract signing and project timelines. User-created subdirectories are also moved intact rather than flattened.
The Skill runs pdftotext on text-layer PDFs or OCR tools on scanned documents, matches dates near keywords like issuance date or decision date, picks the latest plausible date, and prepends a YYMMDD prefix via mv. Files already dated are skipped.
Yes. Add a new YAML preset under assets/ defining directories, classification rules, detection hints, and management files. Two structures are supported: a single flat template or a multi-template mode that selects sub-templates by business subtype without creating empty directories.
Do not use it for drafting legal documents, conducting legal research, or analyzing evidence, as it only handles case archive initialization and material organization. Those tasks belong to dedicated drafting or analysis skills.
