Securities Exemption Issue Spotter

Securities Exemption Issue Spotter is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zgbrenner/agentcounsel. It costs 70 tokens per session (2,687 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An issue-spotting guide for a proposed private securities offering. It compares possible routes—such as Regulation D, Regulation S, Regulation A+, Regulation Crowdfunding, Rule 147, and Section 4(a)(2)—and lists the facts counsel needs to assess them.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for organizing an offering's facts, comparing domestic and cross-border options, and identifying questions about solicitation, investors, issuer history, and the proposed sale.
Why use it?
It helps a deal team avoid treating a suggested exemption as already settled. The result shows candidate paths and open questions without deciding which exemption is available.

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

Securities Exemption Issue Spotter 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.

Securities Exemption Issue Spotter

Purpose

Issue-spot candidate exemption pathways and the facts needed to evaluate each, for a contemplated or in-progress private offering. The skill walks the private-offering exemption decision tree and surfaces, for each candidate path, the facts that support candidacy and the facts that remain open. The attorney chooses the path. This skill provides draft work product for attorney review only and is not legal advice.

Use When

  • The user is contemplating or in-progress on a private offering and needs candidate exemption paths surfaced.
  • The user has heard "we'll do a Reg D offering" and counsel needs the underlying facts organized to confirm whether 506(b) or 506(c) is the right path — or whether another path is in play.
  • The user has begun general solicitation and counsel needs the candidate-path implications surfaced.
  • A cross-border offering is contemplated and Reg S / Reg D side-by-side analysis is needed.

Required Inputs

  • Jurisdiction and governing law, or [verify jurisdiction]. Federal U.S. by default with state blue-sky overlay; foreign jurisdictions where any offer or sale is contemplated.
  • Issuer profile (entity form, fiscal history, prior offerings).
  • Security type (equity, convertible, debt, SAFE, token, profit interest, other) and the user's view on whether the "is it a security" determination is contested.
  • Contemplated marketing posture: general solicitation Y/N, channels, pre-existing relationship posture.
  • Investor mix contemplated: accredited Y/N, sophisticated non-accredited, QIB.
  • Offering size, structure (sole / concurrent / side-by-side), and timeline.
  • Prior-offering history within the integration look-back window [verify current SEC integration rule version].
  • Bad-actor "covered persons" universe (issuer, predecessors, affiliates, directors, executive officers, 20% beneficial owners, placement agents, etc.) — names only; the attorney runs the look-back.
  • States in which sales will occur and any foreign jurisdictions where offers will be made.
  • User-supplied dates only; treat each as [deadline verification required].

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.
