0upvotes

Run the cold-start interview to learn your IP practice and write your practice profile. Use on first install when the practice profile is missing or still contains placeholders, when re-onboarding with --redo, or when re-probing integrations with --check-integrations after connecting or disconnecting an MCP. This is the ONLY skill that should run on a fresh install.

# /cold-start-interview

Runs the cold-start interview. First run writes `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ip-legal/CLAUDE.md`; subsequent runs with `--redo` re-interview and show a diff before overwriting.

## Instructions

1. **Check current state:** Read `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ip-legal/CLAUDE.md`. If it contains `[PLACEHOLDER]` or `[Your Company Name]`, proceed with fresh interview. If populated and `--redo` not passed, ask: "Looks like you're already set up. Want to re-run the interview? This will overwrite `~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/ip-legal/CLAUDE.md` (I'll show you a diff first)."

2. **Follow the interview script below.**

3. **Ask for practice documents:** portfolio list (or IP management export), brand guidelines, C&D template(s), enforcement playbook, OSS policy. Accept file paths, Google Drive links, or IP-management record IDs.

4. **Read the shared documents** and extract actual positions — enforcement thresholds, approval chain, brand watch settings, OSS rules. Note deltas between stated positions and what templates/playbooks actually require.
