respond

respond is a command for Claude Code from Kromer-Group/Claude-Legal. It costs 11 tokens per session (1,449 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that drafts responses to common legal inquiries from configured templates. It covers requests such as data access, litigation holds, vendor questions, privacy inquiries, and subpoenas, but is not legal advice.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a draft response for a supported inquiry type, then have a legal professional review it before sending.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent starting routine legal replies while identifying cases that need review or escalation by a qualified lawyer.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

respond scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/respond -- Generate Response from Templates

If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see CONNECTORS.md.

Generate a response to a common legal inquiry using configured templates. Customizes the response with specific details and includes escalation triggers for situations that should not use a templated response.

Important: This command assists with legal workflows but does not provide legal advice. Generated responses should be reviewed by qualified legal professionals before being sent.

Invocation

/respond [inquiry-type]

Common inquiry types:

  • dsr or data-subject-request -- Data subject access/deletion/correction requests
  • hold or discovery-hold -- Litigation hold notices
  • vendor or vendor-question -- Vendor legal questions
  • nda or nda-request -- NDA requests from business teams
  • privacy or privacy-inquiry -- Privacy-related questions
  • subpoena -- Subpoena or legal process responses
  • insurance -- Insurance claim notifications
  • custom -- Use a custom template

If no inquiry type is provided, ask the user what type of response they need and show available categories.

Workflow

Step 1: Identify Inquiry Type

Accept the inquiry type from the user. If the type is ambiguous, show available categories and ask for clarification.

Step 2: Load Template

Look for templates in local settings (e.g., legal.local.md or a templates directory).

If templates are configured:

  • Load the appropriate template for the inquiry type
  • Identify required variables (recipient name, dates, specific details)

If no templates are configured:

  • Inform the user that no templates were found for this inquiry type
  • Offer to help create a template (see Step 6)
  • Provide a reasonable default response structure based on the inquiry type

Step 3: Check Escalation Triggers

Before generating the response, evaluate whether this situation has characteristics that should NOT use a templated response:
