Purpose

用途

Clinics generate enormous numbers of status updates — to clients, to professors, to co-counsel, to courts. Same case, same facts, completely different documents. This skill takes the case notes and produces the right summary for the right reader.
法律诊所需要生成大量状态更新——面向客户、教授、合作律师及法庭。同一案件、同一事实,所需文档却截然不同。本技能可根据案件记录,为不同读者生成合适的总结。

Audience modes

受众模式

Client-facing

面向客户

Reader: The client. Probably stressed. Possibly unfamiliar with legal process. Reading level per
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-clinic/CLAUDE.md
plain-language standards (default 6th grade).
Include:
  • What's happened since they last heard from the clinic
  • What's happening next and when
  • What (if anything) they need to do
  • How to reach the clinic
Don't include:
  • Legal analysis (they don't need to know the IRAC)
  • Weaknesses in their case (unless it's time to have that conversation — and that's a call for the professor, not a status update)
  • Jargon
Review label for the student (not for the client — strip before sending):
[AI-ASSISTED DRAFT — requires student review and supervision step per plugin config]
Check your jurisdiction's student practice rule for required law-student sign-off language; some jurisdictions require specific forms.

Dear [Client],

I wanted to update you on your case.

**What's happened:** [Plain English. "We filed your answer with the court on
[date]" not "The responsive pleading was submitted."]

**What's next:** [What and when. "The court scheduled a hearing for [date] at
[time]. You need to be there." Or: "We're waiting for the landlord's lawyer
to respond. That could take a few weeks."]

**What you need to do:** [Specific and clear. Or: "Nothing right now — we'll
let you know when we need something from you."]

**How to reach us:** [Clinic phone, hours, student name]

[Student name]
Law Student, Certified Legal Intern
Under the supervision of [Supervising Attorney]
[Clinic name]
Before sending: sending a client status update is a consequential action. The gate is the supervision workflow in
## Supervision style
in

, reinforced by the Part 0 role check confirming a licensed supervising attorney owns the setup. Confirm the draft has been reviewed per the supervision protocol (queue / flag / lighter-touch) and all internal review labels (

需包含内容:
  • 自上次联系以来案件的进展
  • 下一步计划及时间
  • (如有)客户需完成的事项

亲爱的[客户]:

我想向您更新案件的最新情况。

**已进展事项:** [通俗易懂的表述。例如“我们已于[日期]向法院提交了您的答辩状”,而非“已提交应诉答辩书”。]

**下一步计划:** [内容及时间。例如“法院已定于[日期][时间]举行听证会,您需要到场。”或者:“我们正在等待房东律师的回复,这可能需要几周时间。”]

**您需完成的事项:** [具体明确的要求。或者:“目前无需您做任何事——需要您配合时我们会及时告知。”]

**联系我们的方式:** [诊所电话、工作时间、学生姓名]

[学生姓名]
法律专业学生,认证法律实习生

Supervision routing

监督路由

Per
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-clinic/CLAUDE.md
:
  • Client-facing → usually a flag trigger (client communication)
  • Internal → no flag (it's going to the professor anyway)
  • Court-ready → always flagged if formal queue enabled (court filings)
根据
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-clinic/CLAUDE.md
  • 面向客户的内容 → 通常触发标记(客户沟通)
  • 内部内容 → 无需标记(直接提交给教授)
  • 适用于法庭的内容 → 若启用正式队列则始终标记(法庭文件)

What this skill does NOT do

本技能不具备的功能

  • Decide what to tell the client. Especially on bad news or case weaknesses — that's a conversation for the student and professor to have, then the student to have with the client. Status updates are status, not strategic advice.
  • File anything with a court. Drafts the document; professor reviews; filing per clinic procedure.
  • Replace the student's assessment in internal status. The "student's assessment" section is the student's thinking — the draft can scaffold it but can't write it.
  • 决定告知客户的内容:尤其是坏消息或案件薄弱环节——这需由学生与教授沟通后,再由学生告知客户。状态更新仅为案件状态,而非战略建议。
  • 向法院提交任何文件:仅生成文档草稿;需经教授审核后,按照诊所流程提交。
  • 替代学生在内部状态中的评估:“学生的评估”部分需体现学生的思考——草稿可提供框架,但无法代笔。
