What it does

This skill runs a one-time setup interview for the privacy-legal plugin. It reads your privacy policy, a DPA template, and one reference privacy impact assessment (PIA), then writes a plain-text CLAUDE.md file recording how your privacy team works, so other privacy skills read the same understanding. It can also re-check which document or messaging connectors are working without re-running the full interview.

Great for

  • Privacy or legal team members setting up the claude-for-legal privacy plugin for the first time
  • Teams that want to re-run setup after their policy, DPA template, or PIA format changes
  • Users who connected or disconnected a document storage, Slack, or scheduled-task connector and want the plugin to notice

Skip it if

  • Anyone who just wants general privacy advice: it is built to configure a specific plugin, and it writes files into your home directory (~/.claude/plugins/config/...) that persist and that other skills will rely on
  • Users who do not want their policy, DPA template, and PIA read and summarised by the agent, since those documents are processed as part of setup
  • Users outside the privacy-legal plugin: the skill points to other plugin paths and a companion file (QUICKSTART.md) that are not included in this file

Try asking

  • “set up the privacy plugin”
  • “onboard me to the privacy plugin”
  • “re-run the privacy interview with --redo”
  • “check my privacy plugin integrations with --check-integrations”

  3. 3

    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

  • Have your privacy policy URL or file, DPA template, and one reference PIA ready before starting, since the skill reads all three.
  • Choose quick setup first if you are short on time; you can upgrade later with --full.
  • Treat --check-integrations results marked ⚪ as untested until you confirm a connector works, since the skill itself only reports ✓ after a successful tool call.
