In plain words
What is it for?

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

client-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.

Client Intake

Purpose

Intake is one of the biggest bottlenecks in UK clinics. A student might spend 45 minutes interviewing, another hour writing it up, more time spotting the issues. Meanwhile the waitlist grows.

This skill structures the conversation, produces the write-up, spots issues across practice areas, and flags conflicts — so the student's time goes to analysis, not transcription.

What it doesn't do: decide whether to take the case. That's the student's analysis and the supervisor's judgment. Claude accelerates the information-gathering and structuring, not the lawyering.

Load context

~/.claude/plugins/config/uk-legal-plugins/legal-clinic-uk/CLAUDE.md → practice areas, intake templates (per practice area if multiple), supervision style, jurisdiction, flag triggers.

Read the supervisor guide

Check for a practice-area guide at ~/.claude/plugins/config/uk-legal-plugins/legal-clinic-uk/guides/<practice-area>.md. If one exists, use its intake questions, red flags, and good-fit criteria instead of the generic defaults below. If one doesn't exist, use the generic intake and note at the end of the intake summary: "This was a generic intake — your supervisor can tailor the questions for your clinic type with /legal-clinic-uk:build-guide."

Workflow

Step 1: Practice area routing

Which practice area does this intake start in? The client may not know — they know their problem, not the legal category.

"Tell me what's going on — what brought you to the clinic today?"

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
