⚠️ Important: Templates Only - Not Employment Law Advice
Outputs are templates and HR frameworks designed to help structure people-ops work - they are NOT employment-law advice, are NOT a substitute for HR counsel, and may not be appropriate for your jurisdiction (US states, EU/UK/AU each have different rules). Employment law is jurisdiction-specific and rapidly changing.
Before using ANY output:
- Have employment counsel review for jurisdiction-specific compliance
- Verify wage notices, mandatory training, and posting requirements
- Confirm the document fits your specific facts (headcount, classification, jurisdiction)
Anthropic, Wayland, and the plugin authors disclaim all liability for use of these templates.
/hr - HR Orchestrator
AI-powered people operations for SMBs at the hire-2-to-20 stage. One command routes to the right HR workflow.
Usage
/hr <verb> [context]
Jurisdiction & headcount pre-flight (REQUIRED before any binding output)
Every sub-skill that emits a binding document - offer letter, termination letter, separation agreement, JD posting, handbook section, accommodation response, leave letter, RIF notice, PIP - MUST first collect:
- State(s) of employment - primary state where work is performed (and any other states for remote workers).
- Country - US / UK / EU member state / AU / CA / other (employment law differs sharply across these).
- Total company headcount - drives FMLA (50+), Title VII (15+), ADEA (20+), federal COBRA (20+), WARN Act (100+), state mini-WARNs, mandatory anti-harassment training thresholds.
- Role classification - W-2 vs 1099 (independent contractor) AND exempt vs non-exempt (FLSA salary test + duties test) AND full-time vs part-time vs temp.
If any of these four are unknown: the sub-skill must either (a) ask the user, or (b) clearly mark the output DRAFT - JURISDICTION-DEPENDENT FIELDS UNFILLED and refuse to fill state-specific clauses. Do not silently default to Delaware/at-will/federal-only.

Composite Flow: full-hire
/hr full-hire <role> fans out three sub-skills in parallel:
- hr-job-description - complete JD with requirements and seniority calibration
- hr-interview-questions - structured question bank and scorecard
- hr-comp-band - market comp research for the role
Combine outputs into a hiring packet ready to post and evaluate.
Routing Logic
- Parse the first word after
/hr as the verb.
- Look up the verb in the table above. If found, dispatch to that sub-skill via
delegate_task.
- If verb is
full-hire, fan out to hr-job-description, hr-interview-questions, and hr-comp-band simultaneously.
- Before any sub-skill that emits a binding document runs, ensure the four pre-flight inputs above have been collected (or the output is marked unfilled).
- If no verb matches, ask: "Which HR task can I help with? (job-description, interview-questions, onboard, review, 1on1, handbook, offer-letter, offboard, comp-band, report, pip, termination-letter, accommodation-request, leave-of-absence, rif)"
When to Use Which Sub-skill
- Hiring a new role? Start with
job-description + comp-band, then interview-questions when candidates are in.
- Someone just accepted an offer? Use
offer-letter to draft the letter, then onboard to build their plan.
- Review season? Use
review for templates + calibration prep.
- Regular 1-on-1s? Use
1on1 with employee context for a crisp agenda.
- Writing the employee handbook? Use
handbook section by section.
- Performance issue? Use
pip for a documented improvement plan with bias/pretext guardrails.
- Someone leaving? Use
offboard for checklist; use termination-letter for involuntary separations with separation agreement.
- Medical / pregnancy / religious accommodation? Use
accommodation-request for the interactive-process documentation.
- Employee requesting FMLA / state PFML / personal leave? Use
leave-of-absence.
- Reduction in force? Use
rif for WARN Act analysis + disparate-impact pre-check.
- Leadership wants numbers? Use
report for pipeline and headcount metrics.
What NOT to use this pack for (route to counsel)
- Active harassment, discrimination, or retaliation complaints - investigation requires counsel + neutral investigator
- Executive separations - bespoke equity, IP, and non-compete negotiations
- Multi-state RIFs at WARN Act thresholds - counsel must clear notification timing
- Visa-sponsored employee terminations - H-1B / L-1 / O-1 implications
- Whistleblower / SOX / Dodd-Frank matters - privileged investigation territory
- Union or NLRA §7 protected concerted activity - labor counsel required
Disclaimer (repeat on every output)
Templates only - not employment-law advice. Have HR counsel licensed in your jurisdiction review every document before sending.
