Legal-analysis is a Claude skill that analyzes legal contracts, extracts and classifies clauses, and performs structured legal research using the CUAD, CaseHOLD, and LegalBench frameworks.

A user follows its intake-to-summary protocol to review a contract, with an explicit rule that output is not legal advice.
- Extracts and classifies contract clauses using the CUAD taxonomy
- Flags unusual, missing, or risky provisions against standard terms
- Follows a 5-step intake-to-summary legal analysis protocol
