What it does

Customize is an agent skill from anthropics/claude-for-legal, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Guided customization of your Legal Builder Hub profile — change one thing without re-running the whole cold-start interview. Adjust practice profile, installed starter pack, watched registries, update preferences, or QA strictness. Use when the user says "change my [thing]", "add a registry", "update my profile", "edit my config", or "customize".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: A suite of plugins for legal workflows. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says change my [thing]
  • Update my profile

Example prompts

  • “change my [thing]”
  • “add a registry”
  • “update my profile”
  • “/customize”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4a6c651. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Customize loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 489 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~90
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Guided customization of your Legal Builder Hub profile — change one thing without re-running the whole cold-start interview.

/customize

When this runs

The user typed /legal-builder-hub:customize. They want to change something in their Builder Hub profile — a watched registry, update notification preferences, a practice area for recommendations — without re-running the whole cold-start interview and without hand-editing YAML.

What to do

  1. Read the config. Read ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/CLAUDE.md (and ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/company-profile.md one level up). If the plugin config does not exist or still contains [PLACEHOLDER] values, say:

    You haven't run setup yet. Run /legal-builder-hub:cold-start-interview first — customize is for adjusting a profile you already have.

  2. Show the customizable map. List what's in the profile, grouped, with a one-line summary of the current value:

    • Company / who you are — name, industry, jurisdictions, stage, practice setting (shared across all 12 plugins — changes flow through company-profile.md)
    • Your practice profile — practice areas in scope, used to recommend community skills
    • Installed starter pack — which plugins and skills are installed via the hub, with install source
    • Watched registries — GitHub repositories / URLs the hub pulls community skills from
    • Update preferences — check cadence (daily / weekly / on demand), notification channel (Slack / in-session), auto-update vs. prompt
    • QA strictness — how aggressively /skills-qa flags issues on a candidate skill before install (lenient / middle / strict), and which failure-mode checks are on
    • Skill install defaults — install scope (user / project), whether to run /skills-qa automatically before install
    • Integrations — Slack / document storage status, fallbacks
  3. Ask what they want to change.

    What would you like to adjust? Pick a section, or describe the change in your own words.

  4. Make the change. Show the current value, ask for the new value, explain what changes downstream, confirm, write it to the config.

    Examples:

    • Adding a new watched registry: "/registry-browser will search this registry alongside the existing ones. /auto-updater will check it on its next run."
    • QA strictness strict → middle: "/skills-qa will report the same findings but not block install on the medium band unless you confirm."
    • Auto-update on → off: "The hub will prompt you before applying updates instead of applying them automatically."
  5. For shared-profile changes (company name, industry, jurisdictions, practice setting, stage): write to ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/company-profile.md and note:

    This change affects all 12 plugins — any plugin that reads your jurisdiction footprint now sees [new value].

  6. Close.

    Done. Your next output will reflect the change. Anything else? You can run /legal-builder-hub:customize anytime.

Guardrails

  • Never delete a section. If the user wants to "remove" a watched registry, offer to mark it [Paused] and explain that pausing keeps the install history but stops update checks.
  • Flag internal inconsistency. If the change would make the profile inconsistent (e.g., auto-update on + QA strictness off; or practice profile that doesn't match any installed plugin), flag the tension.
  • Flag guardrail degradation. The Legal Skill Design Framework checks (nine design parameters, three legal failure modes, trust-surface check) are what /skills-qa exists to run — turning them off defeats the point. If the user wants to lower strictness, recommend the middle band rather than disabling the check.
  • One change at a time. Don't re-ask the whole interview.
