cslawyer1985 Legal Regulatory Compliance Mapper
Overview
Helps map regulatory obligations, controls, owners, evidence, and review cadence for a product, business unit, or jurisdiction. This is a descriptive OpenClaw skill for legal-industry workflow support. It provides structured frameworks, checklists, templates, and issue-spotting prompts. It does not execute code, call external APIs, access legal databases, retrieve court records, automate filings, or perform legal services.

Required Output Columns
When producing a matrix, include these columns unless the user asks for a shorter format:
| Column | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Jurisdiction | Country/state/region or "unknown" |
| Obligation / Issue | The compliance topic to verify |
| Source basis | User-provided source, known framework, or "needs authoritative source" |
| Verification status | confirmed by user / likely / unknown / needs counsel |
| Owner | Business, legal, compliance, product, security, or other owner |
| Evidence | Document, control, filing, policy, log, or artifact to retain |
| Review cadence | One-time, launch gate, monthly, quarterly, annual, event-driven |
| Attorney-review trigger | Why qualified counsel should review |
Example Prompts
- "Map compliance obligations for a fintech product launch."
- "Create a regulatory controls tracker for a healthcare startup."
Safety and Legal Limitations
- This skill provides informational workflow support only and is not legal advice.
- It does not create an attorney-client relationship and does not replace review by a qualified attorney.
- Laws, court rules, deadlines, ethics duties, privilege, confidentiality, and professional responsibility rules vary by jurisdiction and matter.
- Users must verify all legal authorities, filing requirements, deadlines, facts, citations, and strategic decisions with qualified counsel.
- The skill must not be used to fabricate evidence, coach false testimony, evade regulation, access data unlawfully, or bypass confidentiality obligations.
- Specific limitation for this skill: Does not determine full legal compliance; users must confirm obligations with qualified jurisdiction-specific professionals.
- Do not invent citations, filing deadlines, regulator names, thresholds, or license requirements. If the user has not provided an authoritative source, mark the item as a verification gap.
Acceptance Criteria
- Package is descriptive only: no handler.py, scripts, external APIs, network calls, or command execution.
- SKILL.md and README.md are English-first and include an explicit legal-information disclaimer.
- Outputs are frameworks, checklists, templates, or planning aids rather than legal conclusions.
- Includes target users, when-to-use guidance, inputs, workflow, outputs, examples, and safety limitations.
- skill.json contains unique slug, tags, trigger keywords, requires_api=false, and readiness=stable.
- Matrices include jurisdiction, source basis, verification status, evidence, cadence, and attorney-review trigger.
Usage Scenarios
| # | User Input | Expected Output |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | "Map the regulatory requirements for a fintech offering BNPL services in the US, UK, and Australia." | Jurisdiction comparison matrix: US (state-level lender licenses, CFPB oversight, TILA disclosure), UK (FCA authorization, Consumer Duty, CONC rules), Australia (ASIC credit license, NCCP Act, DDO). Color-coded: harmonized (AML/KYC), divergent (rate-cap rules), missing (Australian BNPR code pending). |
| 2 | "We are compliant in the EU. What additional requirements apply if we add Singapore?" | Delta analysis: additional requirements (MAS licensing for payment services, PDPA data-protection obligations, Singapore-specific consumer-protection guidelines). Implementation roadmap with 90-day timeline. |
| 3 | "Generate a compliance calendar with all filing deadlines, renewal dates, and audit requirements across our 5 operating countries." | Annual calendar: Q1 (US annual report, EU DPO review), Q2 (UK FCA renewal, AU ASIC levy), Q3 (SG MAS quarterly return), Q4 (US state license renewals, EU SCC review). Deadline-alert settings and document-prep checklists per event. |
Scenario 2: 开公司要办什么证
User input: "我想在上海注册一家餐饮公司，但搞不清楚要办哪些许可证、怎么办、找谁办。能帮我梳理一下流程吗？" Expected output: 上海餐饮公司开办证照流程——第一步：营业执照（去上海市市场监督管理局网站/一网通办线上申请，经营范围写"餐饮服务""食品销售"，约3-5个工作日）；第二步：食品经营许可证（拿到营业执照后申请，需要场地平面图+食品安全管理制度+健康证，15个工作日）；第三步：消防安全检查合格证（消防部门实地检查后才发，50-200平方米的餐饮店必须通过）；第四步：环境影响登记表（环保局备案，网上填表即可）；第五步：税务登记（拿到营业执照后30天内办好，在一网通办上就能一起办）。总流程约45-60天。关键工具：上海一网通办（zwdt.sh.gov.cn）+各区行政服务中心现场咨询。
