## What it does

The skill reads the practice profile and presents editable sections such as company details, regulatory scope, risk posture, people, use-case entries, AI system inventory, vendor positions, policy commitments, and workflow settings. It then asks for a replacement value, explains downstream effects, requests confirmation, and writes the change to configuration.

Shared company details are stored in `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/company-profile.md`, while plugin settings are in `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ai-governance-legal/CLAUDE.md`. Changes are handled one at a time.

Run `/ai-governance-legal:cold-start-interview` first, because customize will not edit a profile containing `[PLACEHOLDER]` values. It sets removed entries to `[Not configured]` rather than deleting sections. The `[review]`, `[verify]`, and source-attribution mechanisms remain in place.

  Guided customization of your AI governance practice profile — change one thing
  without re-running the whole cold-start interview. Adjust risk posture,
  escalation contacts, use-case registry entries, vendor AI positions,
  AI policy commitments, impact-assessment house style, or matter workspace
  paths. Use when the user says "change my [thing]", "update my profile",
  "edit my config", "tune my playbook", or "customize".

# /customize

## When this runs

The user typed `/ai-governance-legal:customize`. They want to change something
in their practice profile — a risk posture, an escalation contact, a playbook
position, a jurisdiction, an output format — 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/ai-governance-legal/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 `/ai-governance-legal: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`)*
   - **Regulatory footprint** — EU AI Act, state AI laws, sector regulators in
     scope
   - **Risk posture** — conservative / middle / aggressive, what each means for
     triage and AIA output
   - **People** — governance team, AI risk owner, escalation chain, approvers
   - **Use case registry** — approved / conditional / never entries, and
     conditions attached to each
   - **AI system inventory** — per-system role (provider / deployer / etc.) and
     tier under the EU AI Act. Run `/ai-governance-legal:ai-inventory` for
     the dedicated editor.
   - **Vendor AI governance** — training-on-data, liability, model-change
     notice, and other positions in your vendor AI playbook
   - **AI policy commitments** — the public or internal commitments your AI
     policy has made, that the plugin cross-checks against
   - **Impact assessment house style** — AIA section order, risk scoring
     format, stakeholder framing
   - **Workflow** — intake path, output format, matter workspace paths, review
     cadence for the policy monitor
   - **Integrations** — what's connected (Slack, document storage,
     scheduled-tasks), what falls back

3. **Ask what they want to change.**
```
