Patent drafting involves coordinating prior art search, patentability analysis, and claims strategy to create a complete application. This skill orchestrates specialized agents through those phases, generating Markdown output and optional figures suitable for attorney review or filing.

Prior art search identifies existing patents and publications related to your invention to assess patentability and inform claims strategy. This skill automates that search as the foundation for patentability analysis and design-around recommendations.

Yes, design-around analysis evaluates how to modify an invention to avoid existing patents while preserving functionality. This skill supports that workflow through integrated prior art and claims analysis to guide innovation strategy.

You'll need API keys including GOOGLE_API_KEY for patent figures, Python tooling available via pip, and access to patent databases for prior art search. The skill handles coordination once these dependencies are configured.

Claims define the legal scope of protection; specifications describe the invention in detail. This skill's claims strategist optimizes claim language based on prior art and patentability findings, while the patent drafter produces the full specification document.

The skill outputs patent drafts in Markdown format and optional PDF when figures are requested, with structured content ready for attorney review or direct submission to patent offices.
