Sort My Legal Inbox

When to use

• Explicit: "triage my legal inbox", "sweep inbound for contracts", "what legal email needs me", "run intake".
• Implicit: first skill the user runs when they see a "Needs you" card and ask "what's waiting on me?"
• Safe on-demand - daily or few times/week for solo founder. Default window: last 7 days if unspecified.

Steps

1. Read shared context: context/legal-context.md. If missing/empty, ask the user in plain language: "I need a few basics about your company first. Want to set those up now?" Then run set-up-my-legal-info if yes. Stop until that's done.
2. Read config: config/counterparty-stack.json. If your inbox isn't connected, ask the user in plain language: "I need to connect your inbox to look through it. Want to connect Gmail or Outlook now?" Stop until connected.
3. Discover inbox tool via Composio. Run composio search inbox for tool slug. Confirm slug matches counterparty-stack.inboxCategory.
4. Pull inbound. Default window: last 7 days (or user N). Query inbox slug for likely-legal messages - contract attachments (.pdf, .docx), law-firm sender domains, subject keywords ("NDA", "MSA", "DPA", "DSR", "subpoena", "office action", "terms", "agreement"), threads replying to prior legal inbound.
5. Classify each item. Apply rubric, pick one bucket:
   • NDA - traffic-light: Green = mutual, ≤3-year term, reasonable scope, standard non-solicit (or none), no unusual residuals, no non-compete, US governing law. Yellow = exactly one deviation (one-way where we sole discloser, 3-5 year term, broad residuals, adjacent jurisdiction like Canada/UK). Red = two+ deviations, or any of: non-compete, IP assignment, unlimited liability, publicity / press-release obligations, term >5 years or perpetual, non-standard governing law. Default Red if text not confidently parsed.
   • MSA / order form - umbrella or commercial-terms doc from customer/vendor.
   • DPA - data-processing addendum or stand-alone data terms.
   • DSR - data-subject request (GDPR Art. 15, CCPA).
   • subpoena / legal process - subpoena, preservation demand, cease-and-desist, litigation hold.
   • TM office action - USPTO office action or TM correspondence.
   • contractor paper - inbound consulting / contractor / work-for-hire from counterparty.
   • other - anything else legal-flavored (insurance-cert request, privacy inquiry, vendor security questionnaire).
6. Route each item. Recommend one:
   • self-handle via draft-a-legal-document - only if item maps cleanly to existing template (e.g. Green NDA with known counterparty).
   • send to review-a-contract (mode=full) - most MSA / DPA / order-form / Yellow NDAs go here.
   • flag attorneyReviewRequired - Red NDAs, subpoenas, litigation-adjacent, anything ambiguous.
   • ignore - spam, newsletters, resolved threads.
7. Write summary to intake-summaries/{YYYY-MM-DD}.md atomically (*.tmp → rename). Structure: counts at top ("7 items: 3 NDA, 1 MSA, 1 DSR, 2 other"), then one section per item with From, Subject, Received, Classification, One-line summary, Recommended route.
8. Append to outputs.json - read existing array, add { id, type: "intake-summary", title, summary, path, status: "draft", createdAt, updatedAt, attorneyReviewRequired }. Set attorneyReviewRequired: true if any item flagged for attorney review.
9. Summarize to user. Plain language. One short paragraph: "I found {N} legal items. {X} NDAs (with the safe ones flagged), {Y} customer contracts, {Z} that need a real lawyer's eyes. Want me to draft replies for the safe ones, or fully review the customer contracts?" Never name files or paths.
