Use this skill when the user asks the coding agent to add a new state plugin to the claude-legal marketplace.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Scaffold a New State Plugin

Use this skill when adding a new state plugin to the
`claude-legal` marketplace. The skill codifies the pattern
established by `wa-court-docs` and `or-court-docs` so the
addition stays consistent across states.

> **Project-scoped skill**. This skill lives in `.claude/skills/`
> at the repo root. It runs against the marketplace as a whole.
> It is NOT one of the marketplace's state plugins.

## When to invoke

When the user asks to "add [state]", "create a plugin for
[state]", "scaffold [state]", etc. Confirm with the user:

1. **State name and abbreviation** (e.g., "California" / "ca")
2. **Primary high-volume court** to get its own skill (e.g.,
   "Los Angeles Superior Court" / `ca-lasc`)
3. **Secondary high-volume court** (optional; e.g., "San
   Francisco Superior Court" / `ca-sfsc`)
4. **Roll-up counties** for the long tail (typically the 10
   most-populous, excluding the two flagship counties)
5. **State's pleading-format rule** (e.g., California Rules of
   Court Rule 2.100 et seq.)
6. **State's civil rules** (e.g., California Code of Civil
   Procedure — CCP)
7. **State's evidence rules** (e.g., California Evidence Code

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codearranger/claude-legal/scaffold-state-plugin@sha256:b622080cdebeef5b

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.6.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
