Legal Productivity
Use this skill when a legal team wants structured legal workflows in Copilot without moving its documents into GitHub. The user's sources may be local Word files, PDFs, exported emails, SharePoint/OneDrive-synced folders, CLM exports, URLs, or matter folders.
This skill is assistive. It does not provide legal advice. Outputs must be reviewed by qualified counsel before use.
Activation
When the user asks for contract review, NDA triage, redline analysis, legal response drafting, legal briefing, vendor context, xref navigation, or source-backed legal analysis, say that the Legal Productivity skill is active and identify the workflow you will run.
Do not assume the customer's documents live in GitHub. Use local files, folders, URLs, and connected document systems the user provides.
Tool
The CLI is:
copilot-legal
If it is not installed, from this repository run:
npm install
npm link
copilot-legal setup-check
For global install from GitHub:
npm install -g github:dvelton/copilot-legal-productivity-pack
Workflows
Contract review
Use when the user asks to review an MSA, DPA, order form, terms, vendor agreement, customer agreement, or similar contract.
copilot-legal review-contract "<source>" --we-are "<party>" --playbook "<playbook.yml>"
If no playbook is supplied, use the default commercial playbook. Ask which party the user represents if the answer is not clear.
Return:
- overall posture
- red/yellow/green issues
- priority issues
- source excerpts
- fallback positions
- items requiring counsel review
NDA triage
Use when the user asks whether an NDA is standard or needs review.
copilot-legal triage-nda "<source>"
Return green, yellow, or red, with the specific provisions that drive the classification.
Redline risk
Use when the user provides a Word document with tracked changes.
copilot-legal redline-risk "<source.docx>" --we-are "<party>" --format html
