China Legal Matters AI Specialist

The Problem It Solves

When dealing with Chinese legal matters, two key pain points arise from the lack of structured tooling: information asymmetry, where individuals or junior lawyers struggle to quickly locate relevant statutes, retrieve useful precedents, and organize them into compliant documents; and process fragmentation, where data cannot flow between steps like legal consultation, document drafting, and statute analysis, forcing users to repeatedly describe the case.

The 包拯 SKILL (Bao Zheng Skill) is designed specifically to address these issues. It is not a general-purpose chatbot but a structured, multi-module Agent skillset for the Chinese legal domain. Its goal is to integrate discrete legal support tasks into a routable and trackable workflow.

How It Works: Core Capabilities & Key Steps

The skill employs a "router-submodule" architecture. Its core lies in precise intent recognition and task dispatch.

1. Smart Routing & Convergence: Upon receiving user input, the skill first initiates up to 3 rounds of intent convergence via shared-intent-convergence.md. It determines if the intent is clear (jump directly to the target module), vague (guide clarification), or mixed (ask the user for preference).
2. Modular Execution: Based on the routing decision, it loads the corresponding submodule:
   • Module A (Consultation): Executes a 4-step deep analysis process, outputting a legal analysis report.
   • Module B (Complaint Drafting): Generates a structured complaint using one of 35 specific case templates (e.g., case-19-personality-internet.md for personality rights disputes on the internet).
   • Module C (Statute Analysis & Retrieval): The core is shared-statute-engine.md, which prioritizes calling the flk.npc.gov.cn API for real-time statutory data. If the API fails, it degrades gracefully to an AI knowledge base. It follows a 6-step workflow (Init-Step-Poll) to produce its analysis.
   • Module D (Criminal Law): Assists in drafting 5 types of specialized criminal law documents, from case consultation and complaint materials to bail applications and defense opinion summaries.
3. Supporting Public Layer: All modules share 10 categories of error-handling protocols (including a circuit-breaker after 5 consecutive API failures) and a global disclaimer to ensure output consistency and legal safety.

Applicability & Key Considerations

The skill has defined boundaries that must be respected:

• Strictly Limited to Chinese Law: Its trigger conditions explicitly state "Chinese legal matter consultation." It does not handle non-Chinese legal systems (e.g., Common Law).
• Assistance, Not Representation: Output documents (e.g., complaints, defense briefs) are professional drafts. Critical documents will note "suggested for review by a practicing attorney before submission." It does not execute actual litigation agency.
• Dependence on External Data: The real-time availability of statute information relies on the stability of the flk.npc.gov.cn API. If the API is unavailable, the system degrades and marks the source as "AI training knowledge base," which may have lagging updates.
• Task Scope: The skill focuses solely on the "consultation, drafting, analysis, and retrieval" aspects of legal problems. It does not cover subsequent enforcement, payments, or direct interaction with court systems.
