Prerequisites
Check that .metapowers/legal/$ARGUMENTS/00-assess.md exists. If it does not exist, stop and tell the user:
"Run an Assess skill first (e.g.
/legal:risk-assessment $ARGUMENTS) to generate the prerequisite assessment artifact."
If the user passes --skip-checks, bypass this check and log the skip to .metapowers/legal/$ARGUMENTS/skip-log.md with a timestamp and the reason "Prerequisite check skipped for regulatory-updates".
Process
-
Read inputs:
- Read
.metapowers/legal/$ARGUMENTS/00-assess.mdfor current regulatory landscape, jurisdiction, and compliance status - Review any existing compliance artifacts in
.metapowers/legal/$ARGUMENTS/
- Read
-
Research regulatory changes:
- Use WebSearch to find recent and upcoming regulatory changes relevant to "$ARGUMENTS"
- Focus on the jurisdictions and regulation types identified in the assessment
- Search for proposed legislation, final rules, guidance updates, and enforcement trends
- Check regulatory body announcements, industry association updates, and legal news sources
-
Summarize each regulatory change:
- What is changing — clear description of the new requirement or modification
- Effective date — when the change takes effect or compliance is required
- Who it affects — which teams, processes, or systems are impacted
- What action is needed — specific steps required to comply
-
Assess impact on current compliance:
- Rate each change as High, Medium, or Low impact:
- High — requires significant process changes, new controls, or substantial investment
- Medium — requires moderate adjustments to existing processes or policies
- Low — requires minor updates or documentation changes
- Map each change to existing controls and identify gaps
- Rate each change as High, Medium, or Low impact:
-
Prioritize required changes:
- Rank by deadline urgency (nearest effective dates first)
- Weight by impact severity (high-impact changes take priority)
- Consider dependencies between changes
- Flag any changes with penalties for non-compliance
-
Create implementation timeline:
- For each required change, define milestones and target completion dates
- Assign responsible owners for each implementation task
- Identify resource requirements (budget, personnel, technology)
- Build in buffer time for review and testing
-
Flag items requiring legal counsel review:
- Ambiguous regulatory language requiring interpretation
- Changes with significant financial or operational impact
- Cross-jurisdictional conflicts or complexities
- Novel regulatory requirements without established compliance patterns
-
Recommend monitoring sources:
- Regulatory bodies — official government and agency websites
- Industry associations — sector-specific compliance organizations
- Legal newsletters — reputable legal update services
- Peer networks — industry working groups and compliance forums
- Suggest monitoring frequency for each source
-
