feature-risk-assessment

feature-risk-assessment is a skill for Claude Code from anthropics/claude-for-legal. It costs 83 tokens per session (2,031 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A detailed assessment of the risks of one product feature or product area. It explains what could go wrong, how likely and serious each problem is, and what could reduce the risk.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for novel features, children's products, or topics receiving regulator attention, especially when a launch finding needs deeper analysis.
Why use it?
A broad launch review may only list an issue. This produces a separate analysis when a feature needs more careful legal or risk consideration.

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

feature-risk-assessment 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 23d 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.

Feature Risk Assessment

Matter context

Matter context. Check ## Matter workspaces in the practice-level CLAUDE.md. If Enabled is ✗ (the default for in-house users), skip the rest of this paragraph — skills use practice-level context and the matter machinery is invisible. If enabled and there is no active matter, ask: "Which matter is this for? Run /product-legal:matter-workspace switch <slug> or say practice-level." Load the active matter's matter.md for matter-specific context and overrides. Write outputs to the matter folder at ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/product-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.


Purpose

The launch review is broad. This is deep. When a single issue needs more than a table row — a novel AI feature, a children's product, something a regulator is actively looking at — this skill produces a standalone assessment.

Not every launch needs one. Most don't. This is for the 10% where "PIA done, shipped" isn't the right level of scrutiny.

When to run this

  • Launch review found a pattern that's not in the calibration table (novel)
  • Launch review found something in the "usually blocks" category
  • GC or leadership asked "what's the risk here" and wants more than a one-liner
  • The feature is in an area with active regulatory attention (AI, children, biometric, health)
  • Someone outside legal is worried and a structured answer would help

If none of the above, the launch review is enough. Don't generate paperwork for its own sake.

Structure

1. What we're assessing

One paragraph. What the feature does, what's new about it, why it got escalated to a full assessment.

2. The risks

For each distinct risk (aim for 2-5, not 15):

### Risk [N]: [Short name]

**Scenario:** [What would have to happen for this to go wrong. Be specific —
not "data breach" but "the recommendation algo surfaces a user's sensitive
category interest to someone who shouldn't see it because X."]

**Who gets hurt:** [Users? The company? A third party? Specific.]

**How likely:** [Low / Medium / High — with a reason. "Low — would require
both X and Y to fail simultaneously." Not just a vibes rating.]

**How bad if it happens:** [Low / Medium / High — with a reason. "High —
regulatory fine + class action exposure + press" vs. "Low — one angry
tweet, no actual harm."]

**Existing mitigations:** [What already reduces the likelihood or impact]

**Gap:** [What's missing, if anything]

**Residual risk:** [After existing mitigations — is this acceptable or does
it need more?]

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.
