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

policy-drafting 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 10d 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 — 159 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/policy-drafting

  1. Load ~/.claude/plugins/config/uk-legal-plugins/employment-legal-uk/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, handbook location.
  2. Use the workflow below.
  3. Draft core policy. Check each jurisdiction in footprint for required variants.
  4. Output: core policy + jurisdiction supplements. Flag where law is currently shifting.

Matter context

Matter context. Check ## Matter workspaces in the practice-level CLAUDE.md. If Enabled is (the default for in-house users), skip the rest of this paragraph — skills use practice-level context and the matter machinery is invisible. If enabled and there is no active matter, ask: "Which matter is this for? Run /employment-legal-uk:matter-workspace switch <slug> or say practice-level." Load the active matter's matter.md for matter-specific context and overrides. Write outputs to the matter folder at ~/.claude/plugins/config/uk-legal-plugins/employment-legal-uk/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.


Purpose

A policy that satisfies ERA 1996 minimum standards may need a supplement for employees covered by a collective agreement, and a Northern Ireland variant where the parallel legislation differs. This skill drafts a core GB policy and generates jurisdiction supplements where the footprint requires different rules or additional statutory content.

Load context

~/.claude/plugins/config/uk-legal-plugins/employment-legal-uk/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, handbook location and format.

Workflow

Step 1: Scope the policy

  • What's the policy for? (Sickness absence, disciplinary and grievance, parental leave, remote working, data protection, modern slavery, etc.)
  • Why now? (Legal requirement, incident, handbook gap, headcount threshold reached, regulatory obligation)
  • Who does it apply to? (All employees, workers, certain roles, certain locations)
  • Is there a collective agreement or recognised trade union? (Relevant to disciplinary, grievance, and consultation policies.)

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.
