## How to Use

Ask Claude Code a product compliance question. Examples:

```
"Can I sell my retinol face cream in the EU and US?"
→ Routes to product-compliance + labeling-compliance + market-entry-checklist

"What certifications do I need for a Bluetooth speaker in the US and EU?"
→ Routes to electronics-compliance + testing-certification + compliance-audit-sprint

"Prepare compliance docs for Amazon EU listing"
→ Routes to evidence-blitz + compliance-reporting + marketplace-compliance
```

The right sub-skills auto-trigger based on your question.
