Clinics send a lot of routine correspondence: "your appointment is Tuesday at 2pm," "please bring your lease," "we filed your answer." This skill handles those from templates so students aren't typing the same letter every week.
Scope: routine only. Substantive advice, bad news, case strategy — those are /status client or a conversation, not a template letter.
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-clinic/CLAUDE.md → plain-language standards, supervision style, clinic contact info.
Read the supervisor guide for this practice area at ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-clinic/guides/<practice-area>.md. Check the pedagogy_posture setting:
guide (default): Produce the structure and the checklist (required elements, plain-language targets, sign-off per student practice rule). Ask the student to draft each section. Give feedback on their draft (register, reading level, required elements, what they missed). Offer to fill a section only when the student has tried once.assist: Produce the letter. Flag items for student review. The student edits and learns by reviewing.teach: Don't produce the letter. Ask the student to draft it. Give feedback. Ask leading questions when they're stuck. Only show a model paragraph after two attempts, and only the section they're stuck on. Track what they got right and wrong so the supervisor can see progress.If no guide exists, use guide. If the guide exists but doesn't set a posture, use guide.
