Update the status of an in-progress international expansion project — recalculates what is now unblocked, flags anything overdue, and surfaces the next priorities. Use when work has happened since the last session and the expansion tracker needs to reflect the current state.

Please install the "expansion-update" skill from askskill: 1. Download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthropics/claude-for-legal/main/employment-legal/skills/expansion-update/SKILL.md 2. Save it as ~/.claude/skills/expansion-update/SKILL.md 3. Reload skills and tell me it's ready
Returns to an open expansion tracker and updates item status based on what has happened since the last session. Recalculates what is now unblocked, flags anything overdue, and surfaces the next priorities.
Load ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/CLAUDE.md.
Identify the tracker file: ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml. If it doesn't
exist, respond: "No expansion tracker found for [country]. Run
/employment-legal:expansion-kickoff [country] to start one."
Read the tracker. Show the current state:
[Country] Expansion — last updated [date]
Open: [N] | In progress: [N] | Done: [N] | Blocked: [N]
Next priorities (open items with earliest due dates or highest-dependency):
[item] — owner: [owner]
[item] — owner: [owner]
[item] — owner: [owner]
Ask for updates in a single prompt — do not ask about each item one by one:
Which items have moved since we last looked? Tell me what's changed (e.g., "EOR decision made — going with Deel", "outside counsel engaged — call scheduled for Thursday", "PE analysis still open, waiting on tax"). You can also add new items or change due dates.
Apply updates to the tracker file. For any item newly marked done,
check whether it unblocks other items and flag those as now actionable.
If any item has a due date that has passed and is still open or
in-progress, flag it:
⚠️ Overdue: [item] — was due [date], owner: [owner]
Tracker updated — [N] items closed, [N] still open.
Next priority: [top open item].
/employment-legal:expansion-update Germany
/employment-legal:expansion-update
(will ask which country if multiple trackers exist)
Detailed tracker schema, item-status rules, and dependency logic live in the
international-expansionreference skill — load it before doing substantive work.
Manage matter workspaces — create, list, switch, close, or detach the active matter. Use in multi-client private practice to keep one client's context separate from another, or when a substantive skill needs to know which matter it's working in.
Draft a DMCA takedown notice, triage one you received, or draft a §512(g) counter-notice. Use when asserting copyright through a §512(c)(3) takedown with the fair-use and perjury gates, when an incoming takedown needs triage into comply / counter / engage / ignore options, or when drafting a §512(g)(3) counter-notice with the consent-to-federal-jurisdiction gate.
Search watched registries for community legal skills, showing matches with descriptions and offering to show the full SKILL.md before install. Use when the user says "browse", "search skills", "find a skill for", "what's out there for", or wants to add a new registry to the watchlist.
Case status summary by audience — client-facing (plain language), internal (for the professor), or court-ready (formal caption format per local rules). Same facts, different framing and depth. Use when a student needs to update the client, brief the professor, or prepare a court status report.
Draft a brief section in house style, consistent with the case theory — every fact cited, every case checked, every argument tied to the theory. Use when the user says "draft the [section]", "write the statement of facts", "argument section on [issue]", or needs a first draft of a brief section.
Brief a case in your preferred format. In drill-me mode, makes the student state the holding first. Use when the user says "brief [case]", "what's the holding in", "case brief", or pastes a case.
