Skill instructions
/invention-intake This is a first-pass screen by a non-specialist, not a patentability opinion. The screen never concludes that an invention is patentable — it concludes that it passes the initial screen and warrants a prior-art search and registered-practitioner review, that it needs more information, or that it hits a disqualifier. A prior-art search is a separate step; this skill does not do one. Instructions 1. Read ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ip-legal/CLAUDE.md. If it contains [PLACEHOLDER], stop and direct to /ip-legal:cold-start-interview. If the practice profile shows trademark- or copyright-only (no patent practice), say so and route the user elsewhere — this is the wrong tool. 2. Follow the workflow below. 3. Run intake. If the user pasted or uploaded a disclosure, read it. If not, ask the seven intake questions (what / problem / differences / inventors / public disclosure / status / technology area) in one batch and wait. 4. Run the six screens: novelty signals
