What it does
Policy Drafting is an agent skill from anthropics/claude-for-legal, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Draft an employment policy with state supplements where law differs across the jurisdictional footprint. Use when the user says "draft a [topic] policy", "we need a policy on", "update our [topic] policy", or names a policy gap.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Policy and terms drafting. 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 draft a [topic] policy
- We need a policy on
- Update our [topic] policy
- Names a policy gap
Example prompts
- “draft a [topic] policy”
- “we need a policy on”
- “update our [topic] policy”
- “/policy-drafting”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
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 (its code samples are markdown).
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
Policy Drafting loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 600 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

- Draft core policy. Check each jurisdiction in footprint for required variants.
- Output: core policy + state supplements. Flag where law is currently shifting.
Matter context
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 /employment-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/employment-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.
Purpose
A policy that's right for California may be wrong (or unnecessary) in Texas. This skill drafts a core policy and generates state supplements where the footprint requires different rules.
Load context
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, handbook location and format.
Workflow
Step 1: Scope the policy
- What's the policy for? (Remote work, parental leave, social media, etc.)
- Why now? (Legal requirement, incident, growth, gap noticed)
- Who does it apply to? (All employees, certain roles, certain locations)
Step 2: Jurisdictional scan
For each state/country in the footprint, check: does this jurisdiction have a specific rule on this topic?
Common topics with jurisdictional variance:
| Topic | Variance |
|---|---|
| Paid leave | State mandates (CA, NY, CO, WA, etc.) with different accrual rates, uses, carryover |
| Parental leave | State programs layer on top of FMLA (CA PFL, NY PFL, etc.) |
| Meal and rest breaks | CA is the outlier (penalty pay); most states minimal |
| Expense reimbursement | CA requires; most states don't |
| Pay transparency | Growing list of states requiring ranges in postings |
| Non-competes | See hiring-review skill — unenforceable in some states |
| Final pay | Timing varies widely |
If the topic has no jurisdictional variance (dress code, say), skip this step.
Step 3: Draft the core policy
One policy. Applies everywhere. Clear and readable — employees should understand it without a lawyer.
Structure:
- Purpose (one sentence — why this policy exists)
- Scope (who it applies to)
- The rule (what's required/permitted/prohibited)
- Process (how to request, who approves, what happens if)
- Questions (who to ask)
Avoid: "heretofore," "notwithstanding," nested exceptions. This is a handbook policy, not a contract.
Show full SKILL.md (228 more words)Show less
Step 4: State supplements
For each jurisdiction where the rule differs, a supplement:
### [State] Supplement
Employees working in [State] are subject to the following in addition to / instead of the core policy:
- [Specific difference]
- [Cite the state law if helpful]Keep supplements tight. Only what's different — don't repeat the core.
Step 5: Cross-check
- Does this policy conflict with anything already in the handbook?
- Does it promise more than the company intends to deliver? (A policy is a promise — courts hold employers to handbook promises.)
- Does it inadvertently create a contract? (Some states treat handbook policies as contractual — include the standard "this is not a contract" language if the handbook doesn't already.)
Output
# [Policy Name]
## Core Policy
[Full text]
## State Supplements
### [State 1]
[Supplement]
### [State 2]
[Supplement]
---
## Drafting Notes (internal — remove before handbook insertion)
- **Jurisdictional scan:** [which states checked, which have variance]
- **Conflicts with existing handbook:** [none | list]
- **Law currently shifting:** [any state where this is in flux]
- **Review cadence:** [when to revisit — annual, or when X happens]Draft, not a policy in effect. This is a drafting aid for attorney review, not a policy you can publish. Publishing a handbook policy has legal consequences — in several states it can bind the company as a contractual promise, and wage/leave/accommodation policies are routinely read against the employer. A licensed attorney, solicitor, barrister, or other authorised legal professional in your jurisdiction reviews, edits as needed, and takes professional responsibility before the policy is rolled out. Do not publish or distribute this draft unreviewed.
Handoff
To handbook-updates skill: when this policy is approved, it diffs against the current handbook and flags what changes.
What this skill does not do
- Approve the policy. It drafts; a human approves.
- Roll out the policy. Communication to employees is an HR workflow.
- Cover every jurisdiction on earth — only the ones in the footprint. If the footprint expands, re-run.
