The instruction itself

3 sections, as written by the author

/expansion-kickoff

Starts an international expansion project for a new country — gathers intake,

runs EOR vs. entity framing, drafts cross-functional questions, surfaces

country-specific flags, and creates a persistent tracker.

Instructions

Load ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/CLAUDE.md → jurisdictional footprint, escalation table.
Load the international-expansion reference skill and run the full workflow.
If a tracker file already exists for this country (~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml),

flag it: "An expansion tracker for [country] already exists. Use

/employment-legal:expansion-update [country] to update it, or confirm

you want to start over."

Create ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/employment-legal/expansion-[slug].yaml on completion.

Examples

/employment-legal:expansion-kickoff Germany

/employment-legal:expansion-kickoff
(skill will ask which country)

> Detailed EOR vs. entity framework, cross-functional questions, briefing

> templates, and tracker schema live in the international-expansion

> reference skill — load it before doing substantive work.

GitHub Project Management

by ComeOnOliver

×3

Comprehensive GitHub project management with swarm-coordinated issue tracking, project board automation, and sprint planning

Interview the user relentlessly about a plan or design until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan, get grilled on their design, or mentions "grill me".

Workflow automation is the infrastructure that makes AI agents reliable. Without durable execution, a network hiccup during a 10-step payment flow means lost money and angry customers. With it, workflows resume exactly where they left off. This skill covers the platforms (n8n, Temporal, Inngest) and patterns (sequential, parallel, orchestrator-worker) that turn brittle scripts into production-grade automation. Key insight: The platforms make different tradeoffs. n8n optimizes for accessibility
