What it does
Translates a contract review into a summary the business stakeholder will actually read. Not a legal memo, a two-minute answer to "can I sign this and what do I need to know." Use when user says "summarize for the business", "write this up for [stakeholder]", "explain this to procurement", "non-legal summary", or when a review is done and needs to go to someone outside legal.
Stakeholder Summary
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 /commercial-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/commercial-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.
Destination check
Before producing output, check where it's going. If the user has named a destination (a channel, a distribution list, a counterparty, "everyone"), ask whether it's inside the privilege circle. Public channels, company-wide lists, counterparty/opposing counsel, vendors, and clients (for work product) waive the protection. When the destination looks outside the circle, flag it and offer (a) the privileged version for legal only, (b) a sanitized version for the broader channel, or (c) both, don't silently apply a privileged header and then help paste it somewhere the header won't protect it. See the canonical ## Shared guardrails → Destination check in this plugin's CLAUDE.md.
Purpose
The business owner who asked for this contract doesn't want a legal memo. They want to know: can I sign it, what's the catch, and what do I need to do. This skill takes a completed review and turns it into that.
