What it does

Msp Legal is an agent skill from RTFM-IT-Services-LLC/msp-claude-skills. Use this skill for ANY legal or contract work for your MSP: reviewing, drafting, or revising an MSA, Service Order, SOW, SLA, NDA, waiver, DPA, or BAA; triaging a contract a client or vendor sends; assessing legal risk on a deal; or answering "what document do we need for this client". Always load this skill BEFORE running any generic legal skill (legal:review-contract, legal:triage-nda, legal:legal-risk-assessment, legal:compliance-check, etc.): it is your playbook and document map, the organization-specific…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/document-stack.md` and `references/playbook-positions.md`).

It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Contract review and Legal risk assessment. The repository describes itself as: A collection of MSP claude skills for MSPs.

When your agent uses it

  • Contract work for your MSP: reviewing
  • Revising an MSA
  • Triaging a contract a client
  • Assessing legal risk on a deal

Example prompts

  • “what document do we need for this client”
  • “is this enforceable”
  • “what should our contract say”
  • “/msp-legal”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Do not weaken the core protections to make a deal feel friendlier. The limitation of
  2. Some things are attorney-only. The non-solicit liquidated-damages figure, the overall

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d4c8213. 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

Msp Legal loads about 3.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 248 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,798 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~248
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,798 words (~3,692 tokens).

“This skill is the source of truth for {{COMPANY_NAME}}'s legal document stack and its standing contract positions. It exists so that legal work is consistent: the same documents, the same clause positions, and the same escalation rules every time, instead…”
