## What it does

The skill reads the AI review settings in `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/corporate-legal/CLAUDE.md`, prepares a document-loading request, and checks returned results against the team’s trust level. It then helps assess flagged clauses in light of the deal structure and format diligence findings. A person or the tool’s own interface runs Luminance or Kira; the skill does not run the extraction itself.

It suggests checking `tabular-review` before handing off. A handoff makes sense when a category contains more than 50 documents, the files are reasonably uniform, and the target is a clause type the tool can find, such as change of control or assignment. Side letters and amendments are poor candidates because their meaning can depend on the main agreement.

If the configuration says no AI tool is in use, the skill does not hand off the work. Its summary may contain material from privileged or confidential documents, so it should be stored with the matter’s privileged files. Distribution beyond the privilege circle can waive privilege.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

```bash
npx skills add anthropics/claude-for-legal --skill ai-tool-handoff -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/ai-tool-handoff/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/ai-tool-handoff/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add anthropics/claude-for-legal --skill ai-tool-handoff -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add anthropics/claude-for-legal --skill ai-tool-handoff -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/ai-tool-handoff/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/ai-tool-handoff/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add anthropics/claude-for-legal --skill ai-tool-handoff -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-for-legal/tree/HEAD/corporate-legal/skills/ai-tool-handoff/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- hand off bulk clause extraction to Luminance or Kira
- prepare a request to load contracts from a VDR
- check extracted clauses against the team’s trust level
- assess whether a flagged clause is triggered by the deal
- add conclusions to diligence findings

## Example prompts
- Send this category of contracts to Luminance to find change-of-control clauses.
- Prepare a Kira bulk-review request and a plan to QA its results.
- Check whether the flagged change-of-control clauses are triggered by this deal structure.

# AI Tool Handoff

## 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 `/corporate-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/corporate-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/`. Never read another matter's files unless `Cross-matter context` is `on`.

---

## Purpose

Luminance and Kira are good at one thing: reading 500 contracts and finding every change-of-control clause. They're less good at judgment — deciding whether a particular CoC provision is actually triggered by this deal structure.

This skill hands off the bulk extraction to the right tool, then runs the QA layer on what comes back.

**Before you hand off:** try `tabular-review` first (`/corporate-legal:tabular-review`). For anything the user's environment can handle — a few hundred documents, a defined column schema — native tabular review is faster to set up, has no per-document cost, and keeps the work product local. Hand off to Luminance/Kira when the corpus is genuinely too large, the team already has a license and workflow, or the matter requires a tool with a validated provenance chain.

## Load context

`~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/corporate-legal/CLAUDE.md` → AI-assisted review:
- Tool in use (Luminance / Kira / none)
- What it's used for (which clause types)
- Trust level (use as-is / spot-check / full re-review)
- Handoff process (who loads, who QAs)

If `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/corporate-legal/CLAUDE.md` says no AI tool → this skill is a no-op. Everything goes through diligence-issue-extraction directly.

## When to hand off

Hand off when all of:
