## Description

Classify a proposed AI use case against your registry, approved, conditional, or not approved, and produce required conditions and next steps. Flags cross-plugin handoffs to privacy or product counsel. Use when user says "triage this use case", "can we use AI for X", "is this approved", "what do we need to do to use AI for X".

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# /use-case-triage

1. Read `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ai-governance-legal/CLAUDE.md`. Confirm registry is populated, if not, stop and direct to setup.
2. Use the framework below. Clarify the use case if vague.
3. Registry lookup → red line check → classify.
4. Output: classification, reasoning, conditions table (if conditional), governance tier, cross-plugin handoffs.
5. Propose registry update if use case wasn't already in the registry.

```
/ai-governance-legal:use-case-triage "Sales team wants to score leads with AI automatically"

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

## Purpose

Stop the conversation that happens in a hallway and starts as "can we just use AI
for this?" Give a fast, calibrated answer from the registry, and if the answer
is conditional, make the conditions concrete and the next step obvious.

The triage skill is a gateway, not a destination. Its job is to classify, flag
what's required, and route. The aia-generation skill does the deep work.

## Read `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ai-governance-legal/CLAUDE.md` first
