matter-intake

matter-intake is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sergeionlyart/minius_codex_lab. It costs 55 tokens per session (1,021 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup process for a new legal matter or research assignment. It turns an unstructured request into a defined question, scope, data classification, plan, sources, deadline, and completion criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to initialize matter files, classify information, define the legal or policy question, choose source boundaries, record assumptions, and set evidence and acceptance requirements.
Why use it?
It prevents research from starting with an unclear question, date, jurisdiction, authority, or handling rules. It also makes the expected result and remaining unknowns clear to another reviewer.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

matter-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 9d 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.

Matter intake

Contract

  • Job-to-be-done: преобразовать поручение в однозначный, классифицированный и проверяемый matter contract.
  • Inputs: вопрос, адресат, продукт, юрисдикция, дата актуальности, срок, источники и ограничения.
  • Outputs: заполненные MATTER/PLAN, classification, workflow level, unknowns и acceptance criteria.
  • Evidence and safety: собирай только необходимые данные, не копируй секреты в публичные запросы и выбирай более строгий класс при сомнении.
  • Stop conditions: остановись до исследования, если неясны полномочия, scope, дата, data class или критический conflict.
  • Acceptance test: вручную проверь, что другой reviewer может однозначно пересказать вопрос, продукт, deadline и DoD.

Цель

Преобразовать неструктурированный запрос в проверяемое поручение без преждевременных правовых выводов. Результат — созданное дело в matters/<matter-id>/, понятный план, список необходимых источников и явные допущения.

Обязательные входы

Получить из запроса или осторожно реконструировать:

  • рабочее название и matter-id;
  • заказчика/адресата и назначение результата;
  • конкретный юридический или правополитический вопрос;
  • юрисдикцию и территориальные/институциональные границы;
  • дату актуальности и исследуемый период;
  • тип результата, язык, формат, объем и deadline;
  • предоставленные файлы/данные и допустимые внешние источники;
  • класс данных по SECURITY.md;
  • требуемый уровень L0-L3;
  • критерий приемки и лицо, принимающее решение.

Не задавай повторно вопрос, если ответ уже есть в материалах. Не делай скрытых предположений.

Процедура

  1. Классифицируй данные. При неоднозначности выбери более строгий класс. Определи, допустимы ли web search, external repo и субагенты.
  2. Сформулируй job-to-be-done. Одно предложение: кто должен принять какое решение на основании какого продукта.
  3. Сформулируй основной вопрос. Он должен допускать проверяемый ответ и дату актуальности.
  4. Раздели вопросы. Создай issue tree: jurisdiction/competence, applicable law, facts/data, procedure, remedies/risks, implementation/impact — только релевантные ветви.
  5. Выбери уровень работы:
    • L0 — точечный ответ;
    • L1 — memorandum/opinion;
    • L2 — research dossier;
    • L3 — legal monitoring.
  6. Определи evidence gate. Какой минимум нужен до drafting: например, действующая редакция нормы + 3 ключевых решения + подтвержденные факты.
  7. Создай дело:
