demand-intake

demand-intake is a skill for Claude Code from anthropics/claude-for-legal. It costs 84 tokens per session (2,932 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured intake workflow for a demand letter. It gathers the parties, facts, legal basis, leverage, BATNA—the best alternative if no agreement is reached—and privilege information before drafting begins.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing a payment demand, breach or cure notice, or similar letter; recording the answers in an intake file; and passing that file to the drafting workflow.
Why use it?
It makes the writer address important strategic and risk questions that a rushed letter may miss. The resulting intake file gives the later drafting step the context it needs.

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

demand-intake 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 272 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/demand-intake

  1. Load ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/CLAUDE.md → demand-letter practice, landscape, risk calibration.
  2. Follow the workflow and reference below.
  3. Run the adaptive intake (core 8 always; strategic block if material or --full).
  4. Generate slug from title + counterparty + year-month.
  5. Write ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/demand-letters/[slug]/intake.md.
  6. Confirm with user: "Intake saved. Run /litigation-legal:demand-draft [slug] when ready."

Demand Intake

Purpose

The drafting is downstream. The value is in the pre-writing — forcing the questions a careless letter skips. Leverage, BATNA, downside tolerance, privilege filters, the actual audience. A demand letter sent without thinking about those is worse than no letter.

Load context

  • ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/CLAUDE.md → Demand-letter practice (insurance-tender timing, materiality threshold for matter creation, any seed-doc templates), landscape (counterparty type, repeat-adversary patterns), risk calibration (to pre-estimate materiality), house style. Tone, compliance period, marking, signer are NOT practice-level defaults — they are set per matter in the ## Posture for this matter step below.

Flags

  • --full → run the complete intake regardless of materiality heuristics (for counsel who wants thorough every time)

The intake

Posture for this matter (ask FIRST, before the core)

Posture for this matter. Demand-letter tone and terms are case-by-case, not a practice default. Ask:

  • Tone: measured / assertive / aggressive? (depends on the relationship, the amount, and whether litigation is likely)
  • Response window: what's reasonable given the claim? (14 days is common for payment demands; 30 days for cure; 7 days for cease-and-desist — but the contract or protocol may set it)
  • Marking: does this need a "without prejudice" or "without prejudice save as to costs" marking? (settlement communications do; assertions of claim often don't; jurisdiction matters — ask if unsure)
  • Signer: you, the client, the GC, instructed solicitor/counsel? Don't assume. Read the prior demand correspondence in the matter file if there is any — it establishes the register.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
