Legal review, compliance, and contract triage -- as a durable coworker.
legal-coworker is the legal review, compliance, and contract triage agent in the knowledge-engineering coworker system. It runs on claude-sonnet-4-6 (chosen for reasoning depth), reads tasks from a durable JSONL queue, ships 9 real plugin skills for NDA triage through signature-request queuing, and enforces two hard invariants: it never sends external correspondence directly, and every output is disclaimed as workflow assistance, not legal advice.
All outbound actions (NDA counters, formal responses, signature requests) are queued as status=queued for human operator approval. Nothing leaves automatically.
Every skill output carries a mandatory disclaimer. This coworker produces workflow assistance -- triage reports, redline summaries, risk scorecards -- not legal counsel.
Tasks arrive via cowork/data/queues/legal.jsonl. The coworker claims one task, completes it atomically, writes an AgentOutcome envelope, and stops. No partial state.
The 9 plugin skills
From NDA classification to meeting briefings, each skill has a defined trigger and a typed output shape. 7 of 9 produce queued-only outbound actions; 2 (brief, meeting-briefing) are open read-only assists. Full catalog →
