What it does

Once installed, the agent quizzes you with MBE-style or essay-style bar exam questions, weighted toward subjects you struggle with and scoped to the exam your jurisdiction actually uses. It asks which exam and jurisdiction you are sitting for before generating anything, explains why each answer is right or wrong, and notes patterns in your misses. It also refuses to treat real-life legal problems as study material and points you to a real lawyer or legal aid instead.

Great for

  • Law students preparing for the bar exam who want targeted practice
  • Students who want the agent to remember weak subjects and recurring mistakes across sessions
  • Students comparing UBE majority rules with their state's specific rules

Skip it if

  • Anyone seeking legal advice on a real lease, ticket, family, or money matter; the skill is for study only and will redirect them to a lawyer or legal aid
  • Students relying on it as the authoritative subject list; the skill itself says to verify against the NCBE outline because studying the wrong list cannot be undone

Try asking

  • “bar prep: give me 10 MBE questions on Torts, weighted toward my weak areas”
  • “test me for the bar on Evidence under California rules”
  • “practice essay on Civil Procedure for my NY bar, --essay --session 5”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Fill in your CLAUDE.md practice profile with jurisdiction, exam format and weak subjects so the agent does not need to ask every time.
  • Verify your exam format and subject list at ncbex.org before studying, and trust the NCBE outline over your prep course if they disagree.
  • Use --session with a number to run focused sessions and keep results in study-plan.yaml for pattern tracking.
