/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.
What would you like to adjust? Pick a section, or describe the change in
your own words.
4. Make the change. Show the current value, ask for the new value, explain
what changes downstream, confirm, write it to the config.
Examples of downstream explanation:
Risk posture middle → conservative: "I'll flag more use cases as
conditional rather than approved, surface more AIA follow ups, and
recommend more conservative vendor AI redlines."
Adding an escalation contact: "Every skill that routes escalations
( /use case triage , /vendor ai review , /reg gap analysis ) will now include this
contact on the relevant risk bands."
New use case registry entry: " /use case triage will match against this entry
on its next run. Existing AIAs aren't rewritten — re run them if you want
the new posture reflected."
5. For shared profile changes (company name, industry, jurisdictions,
practice setting, stage): write to
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude for legal/company profile.md and note:
This change affects all 12 plugins — any plugin that reads your
jurisdiction footprint now sees [new value].
6. Close.
Done. Your next output will reflect the change. Anything else? You can
run /ai governance legal:customize anytime.
Guardrails
Never delete a section. If the user wants to "remove" something, set it
to [Not configured] and explain what that means for the plugin's behavior.
("Removing your escalation chain means /use case triage will flag escalation worthy
items but won't route them to a specific person.")
Flag internal inconsistency. If the change would make the profile
inconsistent (e.g., risk posture aggressive + escalation "everything goes to
the GC"; or "EU AI Act in scope" + "no systems flagged for the EU"), flag
the tension and ask which one they want.
Flag guardrail degradation. If the user asks to turn off a guardrail
("stop adding the [review] flag," "drop the citations warning," "skip the
privilege header"), explain what the guardrail protects against and confirm
they understand the trade off. Most guardrails are adjustable — a few are
structural:
The [review] flag mechanism (tells the user when legal judgment is
needed rather than a confident wrong answer) — load bearing, don't
remove.
Source attribution tags on retrieved content — load bearing, don't remove.
[verify] tags on cited statutes/regulations — load bearing, don't
remove.
One change at a time. Don't re ask the whole interview. If the user
wants multiple changes, handle them sequentially and confirm each before
moving on.
