What is it for?
It is for recording case developments, changing risk or status, moving deadlines, and updating a case's financial or materiality classification.

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-update 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/matter-update

  1. Follow the workflow and reference below.
  2. Confirm slug exists in ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/matters/ and _log.yaml.
  3. Prompt for event type, date (default today), summary, and any log field updates (risk change, status change, next deadline shift, materiality reclassification).
  4. Append dated entry to ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/matters/[slug]/history.md.
  5. Update _log.yaml — set last_updated to today, apply any field updates.
  6. Confirm.

Matter Update

Purpose

The portfolio only stays useful if it stays current. This skill makes logging an update cheap — two minutes of structured capture, no freeform drift.

Load context

  • ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/matters/_log.yaml — find the row
  • ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/matters/[slug]/history.md — append target
  • ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/matters/[slug]/matter.md — reference (don't rewrite)
  • ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/litigation-legal/CLAUDE.md — risk calibration (if re-assessing risk)

Conflicts gate — unbypassable. Before logging an update, check _log.yaml for the matter slug. If the matter is not in _log.yaml, refuse and route:

"I don't see [matter slug] in the matter log. Run /litigation-legal:matter-intake first so the conflicts check runs and the matter workspace exists. I won't append history to an unmanaged matter — the conflicts check is the gate, and there's no history.md to append to until the matter is intaken."

Input

Slug (required). If not provided, ask — with a short list of recently updated matters to pick from.

The update

1. Event type

Offer categories:

  • Procedural — motion filed/received, order issued, hearing held, deadline set
  • Discovery — production made/received, depositions taken, subpoena served
  • Substantive — new facts, key document surfaced, ruling on merits
  • Strategy — posture shift, settlement offer made/received, authority update
  • Risk re-assessment — severity or likelihood changed
  • Stakeholder — new person looped in, outside counsel change
  • Administrative — engagement letter executed, budget adjusted, hold refreshed

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.
