Keel Legal — legal lane router (optional vertical)
Index, not an implementation. Thin by design — optional vertical; skip unless you do legal work.
Deference — keel-v2 is the arbiter
Legal drafting is often the no-artifact/FAST lane, but anything that sends, files, or executes a document trips surface 6 (irreversibility) → HEAVY, and the harness send/publish gate applies: draft, then stop for the human to send. PII in legal docs (surface 3) is routine — handle under HEAVY.
Dispatch table

plugin | anthropics/claude-for-legal |
Guardrail
Not legal advice. This lane assists with drafting and review; it is not a substitute for a licensed attorney, and it never files or sends on its own.
If not installed
Optional, off by default. Install: ./install.sh legal.
