Full launch review against your framework and risk calibration. Use when the user says "review this launch", "legal review for [feature]", "can we ship this", "what are the legal issues with [product]", or references a launch tracker ticket or PRD that needs a category-by-category review memo.

Please install the "launch-review" skill from askskill: 1. Download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthropics/claude-for-legal/main/product-legal/skills/launch-review/SKILL.md 2. Save it as ~/.claude/skills/launch-review/SKILL.md 3. Reload skills and tell me it's ready

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 /product-legal: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/claude-for-legal/product-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.
Before producing output, check where it's going. If the user has named a destination (a channel, a distribution list, a counterparty, "everyone"), ask whether it's inside the privilege circle. Public channels, company-wide lists, counterparty/opposing counsel, vendors, and clients (for work product) waive the protection. When the destination looks outside the circle, flag it and offer (a) the privileged version for legal only, (b) a sanitized version for the broader channel, or (c) both — don't silently apply a privileged header and then help paste it somewhere the header won't protect it. See the canonical ## Shared guardrails → Destination check in this plugin's CLAUDE.md.
Read the PRD, check every category in this team's framework, calibrate against what actually blocks here (per ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/product-legal/CLAUDE.md), and output a review in house format. Goal: a PM reads it and knows exactly what has to happen before they ship.
Read ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/product-legal/CLAUDE.md:
## Review framework — the categories to check## Risk calibration — what blocks vs. what's FYI at this company## Launch review process — output format## Escalation — when to route upThe calibration table is the difference between this skill and a generic checklist. If the table says "new data collection → PIA, ships in 1-2 days," don't write "this might require a full DPIA and regulatory consultation." Match the team's actual practice.
If Jira/Linear MCP is connected, pull the ticket history — often there's context in earlier comments that the PRD doesn't capture.
Before the checklist, answer in plain English:
AI detection — run before the framework walk. Check whether this launch uses AI in any form: a third-party model, an internally built model, an AI-powered vendor feature, automated scoring or classification, generative content, recommendations, predictions. Look for this even if the PRD doesn't label it

Diff a proposed handbook change against the current version, flag ripple effects and state supplement impacts. Use when user says "update the handbook", "add this to the handbook", "handbook change", or has a policy ready for insertion.
Review an offer letter and any restrictive covenants — jurisdiction check included. Substantive rules (covenant enforceability, pay-transparency, salary-history limits, exemption criteria) are researched per hire, not stored. Use when the user says "review this offer", "can we use a non-compete here", "check this offer letter", "hiring in [state]", or attaches an offer.
Draft an audience-specific summary from the privileged investigation memo — HR, leadership, or outside counsel versions. Use when an investigation memo needs to be communicated to an audience that should not see the full privileged work product.
Track the IP portfolio — registrations, renewals, maintenance fees, and use declarations. Use when checking what's renewing, adding or updating an asset, recording a maintenance filing, or auditing the register for gaps, lapses, and use-in-commerce questions. Receives handoffs from prosecution and clearance work.
IRAC-scaffolded case analysis memo with research gaps flagged — the scaffold, not the analysis. Rule blocks are RESEARCH NEEDED, Application is STUDENT ANALYSIS prompts, Conclusion is blank. Use when a student needs to scaffold a case analysis memo, write up their analysis, or build an IRAC memo for a case.
Read VDR documents and extract issues per house categories and materiality thresholds, producing findings in house memo format. Use when user says "review the data room", "extract issues from [folder]", "diligence review", "what's in the VDR", or points at VDR documents.
