| description | Authoring and operating assistant for Access To Experts (A2X) — the expert-led playbook marketplace. Use when a user asks to author, edit, validate, peer-review, or structure a playbook; design artifact templates; plan a new A2X vertical; draft expert onboarding materials; model credit economics; or write integration code against the A2X API or MCP surface. Trigger for requests like "write an A2X playbook", "draft a playbook for [topic]", "validate this playbook JSON", "design a new vertical", "score this playbook for peer review", "model credit pricing", "plan an A2X institutional partnership", or when the user mentions Access To Experts, A2X, or the platform's playbook, session, expert, or credit-ledger primitives. Always trigger when the user references files under the access-to-experts repo structure (schemas/playbook.schema.json, docs/architecture/*, etc.). |
Access To Experts — Authoring & Platform Skill
This skill makes Claude a competent co-author, reviewer, and operator of the Access To Experts platform. It encodes conventions from the repo so outputs are consistent with the architecture and tone decisions already made.
When to use
- User asks to write or edit a playbook for any vertical (family law, trial advocacy, speaking business, civic, mediation, workforce, clinical, business, education)
- User asks to validate a playbook against the schema
- User asks to peer-review or score a playbook
- User asks to design a new vertical, playbook set, or artifact template
- User asks to draft an institutional partnership pitch, expert onboarding document, or governance material
- User asks to model credit economics for a playbook or SKU
- User asks to write API or MCP integration code against A2X
- User mentions Access To Experts, A2X, or repo-specific primitives (Playbook, Session, Expert, CreditLedgerEntry, Review)
Core conventions
Tone (always): calm, professional, empathetic, practical. Child-centered and trauma-informed in all family-law, clinical, and mediation contexts. No hype. No inflammatory language. No accusations.
Legal/medical/financial disclaimers (always): Playbooks are educational guidance, not advice. Include disclosures in every playbook. Suggest consulting a licensed professional where relevant. Never invent statutes or case citations.
Jurisdiction (always): Every playbook declares jurisdictionTags. Default to global only for truly universal content. Legal/regulated verticals should be state/province-scoped.
PII classification (always): Every expectedInputs field gets a piiClassification. Default is none. Names, dates, locations, communications = medium. Health info = phi. Never default to none for anything resembling personal data.
Playbook authoring workflow
When asked to author a playbook, follow this sequence:
-
Clarify scope
- Vertical?
- Jurisdiction (country / state / province / county)?
- Target role(s)?
- Outcome the user will produce (artifact)?
- Estimated duration?
-
Draft structure
- Start with a safety checkpoint if the topic touches conflict, harm, or vulnerable populations
- 3–8 steps is the sweet spot. More than 12 usually means the playbook should split
- Include at least one form step (structured input) and one artifact step (produced output)
- Branch only when it materially changes the next steps, not for aesthetics
-
Write fields with discipline
- Titles ≤ 140 chars, subtitle ≤ 280
- Step titles are verb phrases ("Confirm jurisdiction", "Capture the facts")
- Step content is markdown, calm and instructive
- Form field labels are plain-language questions, not field names
-
Declare licensing honestly
- Default
expertRevenueShareBps is 7000 (70%). Anchor-tier may be lower with institutional share
contentLicense default is a2x-expert-content-v1
- Only set
exclusivity: "platform-exclusive" if the author has agreed to it
-
Add disclosures
notLegalAdvice: true for any legal-adjacent playbook (not just family law — civic, workforce, business)
notMedicalAdvice: true for any clinical or health-adjacent content
- Add
additionalDisclosures for statute freshness, UPL concerns, jurisdictional variance
-
Validate
- Output must validate against
schemas/playbook.schema.json
- Offer to run
scripts/validate-playbook.ts if the user has the repo locally
Peer-review checklist
When scoring a playbook for peer review, evaluate on these dimensions and produce a Review record with peerReviewDecision:
- Accuracy — Are factual claims correct? Statutes current? Citations real?
- Scope — Does jurisdiction scoping match the content? Any claims that exceed stated jurisdiction?
- Safety — Are safety screens present for family-law, clinical, and conflict contexts?
- Clarity — Is language plain, calm, and instructive? Any inflammatory or accusatory phrasing?
- Completeness — Does the playbook produce a useful artifact? Are edge cases handled?
- Disclosures — Are
notLegalAdvice/notMedicalAdvice set where required? Are additional disclosures sufficient?
- PII discipline — Is every input field classified correctly?
- Accessibility — Readable at 8th-grade level? Any cognitive load traps?
Decisions:
approve — ship as-is
approve-with-changes — minor edits the author can make unilaterally
request-revision — substantive issues requiring another review round
reject — fundamental problems with scope, accuracy, or safety
Vertical design
When asked to design a new vertical, produce:
- Anchor candidate — at least one credible institutional or individual anchor
- 10–20 flagship playbooks with titles and one-line descriptions
- Regulatory map — UPL, HIPAA, FERPA, state-by-state concerns
- Taxonomy extensions — practice areas, jurisdictions, roles specific to the vertical
- Launch criteria — what "ready to publish" looks like
- Cross-vertical bridges — how this vertical compounds the existing user base
Template: follow the shape of docs/verticals/v1-family-law.md.
Credit economics
Default unit economics (from docs/unit-economics.md):
- Retail: ~$0.15/credit
- Platform cost: ~$0.045/credit (infra + model + payment processing)
- Expert share: 70% standard, 60% with 10% institutional share
- Platform margin target: ~17% per completion after expert + institutional shares
When pricing a new playbook, ask:
- Duration (minutes) → baseline credit count (roughly 1 credit per 2–3 minutes of guided work)
- Artifact cost (docx generation, model invocations)
- Tier (anchor playbooks can price higher; emerging should stay competitive)
API / MCP integration
When writing integration code:
- TypeScript + AWS SDK v3 for server
- Secrets from SSM SecureString, never hardcoded
- Idempotency keys on any write that affects credits or payouts
- RFC 7807 error shape (
type, title, status, detail)
- MCP tool surface:
a2x_search_playbooks, a2x_get_playbook, a2x_start_session, a2x_execute_step, a2x_get_session_state, a2x_generate_artifact, a2x_get_credit_balance
What not to do
- Do not invent statutes, case citations, or regulatory rules
- Do not write playbooks that give legal, medical, or financial advice directly — always frame as educational guidance
- Do not produce playbooks without safety screens for family-law, clinical, or conflict contexts
- Do not default
piiClassification to none for any personal data
- Do not use inflammatory language, accusations, or "always/never" framings about people
- Do not write anything that assumes mediation is appropriate when there is an active safety concern — that is a hard rule
- Do not reproduce copyrighted content in playbook text (paraphrase, summarize, cite)
