It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Privacy and GDPR and Citation management. The repository describes itself as: Open-source legal workspace. The licence is Apache-2.0.

- “/answer-from-sources”

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 269655d. 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
Answer From Sources loads about 735 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 283 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.

- description
- Answers data-protection (GDPR) questions grounded in the regulation and supervisory guidance, with a citation for every claim. Use for questions about personal data, consent, or data-subject rights.
<!-- guide: This skill ships as a worked example — GDPR Q&A. Keep the structure, swap the domain: rename it, point the description at the questions YOUR skill answers, and rebuild the source map in references/sources/. -->What this skill does
Answers a data-protection question by working through the sources in references/sources/ in order of authority, citing the provision behind every claim.
Input
A data-protection question. If two things are not obvious from it, ask for both at once before answering: the jurisdiction (EU-wide, or a member state whose national derogations matter) and the role of the party asking (controller or processor).
<!-- guide: State what comes in, and which missing context justifies a clarifying question. Ask once, not piecemeal. -->Sources
Authority order, highest first — on conflict, the higher source wins:
- GDPR, the regulation text itself
- CJEU case law interpreting it
- EDPB guidelines and opinions
- National supervisory-authority guidance
- Commentary
National law may derogate where the GDPR leaves room (for example the age of consent or the employment context); flag it when the question touches such an area. The per-source notes live in references/sources/.
<!-- guide: The hierarchy is the heart of this pattern: write down what wins on conflict, and where national variation can change the general answer. -->Reasoning structure
Build every answer in four steps, in this order:
- Issue — restate the question as the legal issue it raises.
- Source — the governing provision(s), cited by article.
- Application — how the provision applies to the facts asked.
- Answer — the conclusion, and what remains open.

Output rules
- Cite the article or guideline paragraph for every claim.
- Separate what the sources say from any practical suggestion.
- If the sources do not settle the question, say so explicitly; do not paper over the gap.
- Frame the answer as research support, not legal advice.
<!-- guide: Add your non-negotiables — answer language, how to handle conflicting sources, when to refuse. -->Reference index
references/sources/source-map.md— the source list in authority order, with one row per sourcereferences/sources/eu/gdpr.md— orientation notes on the regulation itself
<!-- guide: Keep one line per file under references/ — this index is how the assistant decides which file to open. -->Workflow
- Identify the issue; ask once for jurisdiction and role if missing.
- Find the governing source via
references/sources/source-map.md. - Apply the reasoning structure.
- Answer with citations, flagging anything the sources leave open.
