Codex v1 local-input note: This migrated skill supports local files and pasted text by default. References to Drive, CLM IDs, Slack, Westlaw, iManage, Ironclad, eDiscovery, dockets, or other remote systems require a separately configured Codex connector/MCP server. When a connector is unavailable, ask for a local export, local file path, or pasted excerpts. If config/local/codex-for-legal/<practice>/CLAUDE.md is missing, ask the user to run the relevant cold-start-interview or customize skill and copy from config/templates/codex-for-legal/<practice>/CLAUDE.md.
$employment-legal:expansion-kickoff
Starts an international expansion project for a new country — gathers intake,
runs EOR vs. entity framing, drafts cross-functional questions, surfaces
country-specific flags, and creates a persistent tracker.
Instructions
- Load
config/local/codex-for-legal/employment-legal/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, escalation table.
- Load the
international-expansion reference skill and run the full workflow.
- If a tracker file already exists for this country (
config/local/codex-for-legal/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml),
flag it: "An expansion tracker for [country] already exists. Use
$employment-legal:expansion-update [country] to update it, or confirm
you want to start over."
- Create
config/local/codex-for-legal/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml on completion.
Examples
$employment-legal:expansion-kickoff Germany
$employment-legal:expansion-kickoff
(skill will ask which country)
Detailed EOR vs. entity framework, cross-functional questions, briefing
templates, and tracker schema live in the international-expansion
reference skill — load it before doing substantive work.
