infringement-triage

infringement-triage is a skill for Claude Code from anthropics/claude-for-legal. It costs 79 tokens per session (6,883 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A first-pass review of possible infringement involving trademarks, copyrights, patents, or trade secrets. Infringement means using someone else's legally protected work or rights without permission; the result is a risk list, not a legal finding.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess a suspected copycat, a claim against your organisation, or whether a dispute may justify further investigation.
Why use it?
It separates the relevant facts and legal factors so a team can decide what needs attorney review before sending demands, stopping activity, or taking legal action.

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

infringement-triage 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 6d 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.

/infringement-triage

This is a triage, not a finding of infringement or non-infringement. Infringement analysis is fact-intensive and legally complex. Acting on a triage — sending a cease-and-desist, refusing to stop, filing suit, or deciding not to — without attorney review is how companies end up on the wrong side of fee awards, Rule 11 sanctions, declaratory-judgment actions, and (for patents) treble damages.

Instructions

  1. Read ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ip-legal/CLAUDE.md. If it contains [PLACEHOLDER], stop and direct to /ip-legal:cold-start-interview.
  2. Follow the workflow below.
  3. Ask which right is at issue — trademark / copyright / patent / trade secret / mixed. If mixed, run each separately; do not blend.
  4. Run common intake (party posture — senior or accused, jurisdiction, timing, exhibits).
  5. Walk the mode-specific factors:
    • Trademark — circuit's confusion test + dilution (if famous) + false advertising (if a comparative claim).
    • Copyright — ownership + registration + access + substantial similarity + fair use + DMCA safe harbor (if applicable).
    • Patent — claim-chart first pass (route to fto-triage output structure); literal + DOE; indirect + divided; invalidity defenses to consider.
    • Trade secret — secrecy + reasonable measures + misappropriation; preemption + reverse-engineering flags.
  6. Produce a flag list with direction — what cuts toward the senior party, what cuts toward the accused, what's mixed. Never conclude.
  7. Write the triage memo to the matter folder or practice outputs folder. Apply the work-product header per role.
  8. End with recommended next steps, the non-lawyer gate if the role is non-lawyer, and — if the practice posture supports assertion — an offer to draft the C&D via /ip-legal:cease-desist or the takedown via /ip-legal:takedown. Do not draft automatically.

This skill never concludes. If uncertain, flag — the attorney decides.

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.
