jurisdiction-format

jurisdiction-format is a skill for Claude Code from ThomasMoreAI/legal-skills-open. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,741 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of jurisdiction-format, Apache-2.0.

A formatter for turning a patent application into filing-ready documents for China, the United States, or Europe. It works from the patent’s claims, technical description, figures, and invention details.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compile invention patent or Chinese utility-model applications for review in Markdown or for filing in DOCX.
Why use it?
Patent offices use different document structures and formatting rules, so one document may not fit every filing system. This helps organise the same invention for the chosen jurisdiction and output format.

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

jurisdiction-format 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.

Origin

This is a copy

89% identical to jurisdiction-format — 13 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Jurisdiction Format: Patent Filing Compilation

Compile the patent application into filing-ready format based on: $ARGUMENTS

Analogous to /paper-compile but for patent document formatting instead of LaTeX.

Constants

  • JURISDICTION = "auto" — From pipeline or args: CN, US, EP, ALL
  • PATENT_TYPE = "invention"invention (发明专利) or utility_model (实用新型, CN only)
  • OUTPUT_FORMAT = "markdown"markdown (for review) or docx (for filing, requires python-docx)
  • OUTPUT_DIR = "patent/output/" — Base output directory

Inputs

  1. patent/CLAIMS.md — drafted claims
  2. patent/specification/ — all specification sections (title, technical_field, background, summary, drawings_description, detailed_description, abstract)
  3. patent/figures/ — figure descriptions and numeral index
  4. patent/INVENTION_DISCLOSURE.md — for metadata

Shared References

Load ../shared-references/patent-format-cn.md for CNIPA document structure and formatting rules. Load ../shared-references/patent-format-us.md for USPTO document structure. Load ../shared-references/patent-format-ep.md for EPO document structure.

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Output Jurisdictions

From $ARGUMENTS or constant:

  • CN -> Generate CNIPA format only
  • US -> Generate USPTO format only
  • EP -> Generate EPO format only
  • ALL -> Generate all three formats

Step 2: Generate CN Format (if CN or ALL)

Output to patent/output/CN/:

权利要求书 (Claims)
  • Extract claims from patent/CLAIMS.md
  • Format per CNIPA conventions:
    • Independent claims: "1. 一种[主题]的方法,...其特征在于..."
    • Dependent claims: "2. 根据权利要求1所述的方法,其特征在于..."
  • Ensure Chinese terminology is correct (所述, 其特征在于, 包括, 等)
说明书 (Description)

Combine all specification sections in CNIPA order:

  1. 发明名称 (from title.md)
  2. 技术领域 (from technical_field.md)
  3. 背景技术 (from background.md)
  4. 发明内容 (from summary.md — split into 技术问题/技术方案/有益效果)
  5. 附图说明 (from drawings_description.md)
  6. 具体实施方式 (from detailed_description.md)

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.
