risk-assessment

risk-assessment is a skill for Claude Code from bromso/metapowers. It costs 76 tokens per session (906 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A legal risk assessment lists possible regulatory, contract, intellectual-property, employment, privacy, and litigation risks. It rates each risk by likelihood, impact, and jurisdiction, meaning the places whose laws may apply.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps build a legal risk register, compare risks across jurisdictions, rank priorities, and plan steps to reduce the most significant exposures.
Why use it?
It helps an organisation see which legal exposures matter most instead of treating every issue as equally urgent. Each high-priority risk is paired with a possible mitigation.

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

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 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Risk Assessment

Identify and score legal risks for "$ARGUMENTS". Evaluate each risk by likelihood, impact, and jurisdictional factors, then define mitigation strategies for the highest-priority items.

See also /security:risk-assessment for a security risk register built from threat and vulnerability findings, or /project-management:risk-assessment for delivery risks to timeline and scope.

Note: AI-generated legal content does not constitute legal advice. Consult a qualified attorney.

Arguments. $ARGUMENTS may contain the project name and optional flags. Take the first token as <project> and treat --skip-checks as a flag; never include flags in file paths. All paths below use <project>. If --skip-checks is present, skip the prerequisite check and, before writing any artifact, append one line to .metapowers/legal/<project>/skip-log.md: - <ISO timestamp> — <skill name> skipped prerequisite check for <artifact file> — reason: <reason or "none given">.

Prerequisites

None — this is a Phase 0 Assess skill.

Process

  1. Brainstorm risks across categories:

    • Regulatory — non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations
    • Contractual — breaches, unfavorable terms, missing agreements
    • Intellectual property — infringement, inadequate protection, trade secrets
    • Employment — misclassification, discrimination, workplace safety
    • Data privacy — unauthorized processing, breach exposure, consent gaps
    • Litigation — pending or potential lawsuits, dispute exposure
  2. Score each risk:

    • Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/risk-matrix-template.md for reference
    • Likelihood (1-5): 1 = rare, 2 = unlikely, 3 = possible, 4 = likely, 5 = almost certain
    • Impact (1-5): 1 = negligible, 2 = minor, 3 = moderate, 4 = major, 5 = catastrophic
    • Jurisdiction modifier (1.0-1.5x): adjust based on regulatory strictness of applicable jurisdictions
    • Risk score = likelihood x impact x jurisdiction modifier

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.
