Description
brief is a command from Anthropic's knowledge-work plugins, listed on skills.sh. It generates contextual briefings for legal work in three modes: a daily brief of legal-relevant items for the start of the day, a topic brief that researches a specific legal question, and an incident brief that gives a rapid summary of a developing situation. The command is run with /brief followed by the mode, and if no mode is given the user is asked which one they need. The page is clear that it assists with legal workflows but does not provide legal advice, and that briefings should be reviewed by qualified legal professionals before anyone relies on them. A connectors guide explains the placeholders and which tools are connected. It suits in-house legal teams and their staff who want a quick, organised scan of what matters in a day, or a fast summary of an emerging issue, to start their work with the relevant items already gathered.…
