Insurance Correspondence Summarization
Synthesizes insurance claims correspondence into a structured briefing with actionable coverage and litigation intelligence. Jurisdiction: US.
Prerequisites
- Claim correspondence — coverage letters, ROR letters, denial letters, demand letters, claim notices, insurer responses
- Policy documents — if available; flag if missing
- Underlying litigation materials — if referenced (pleadings, case caption, court/docket)
Output Structure
1. Executive Overview (2–3 paragraphs)
- Claim type, status, key parties (insured, insurer, claimant, counsel)
- Urgent coverage or liability issues needing immediate attention
2. Factual Background
- Underlying incident: date, location, parties, nature of alleged injury/damage/loss
- Distinguish undisputed facts from contested allegations
3. Coverage Analysis

Include: initial notice, coverage positions, ROR letters, demands, responses, ADR/coverage litigation filings.
5. Settlement Posture
- All demands and offers (with dollar amounts)
- Conditions attached to proposals
- Status: ongoing / stalled / concluded
6. Missing Documents
List documents referenced but not provided that are needed for complete analysis.
7. Next Steps / Action Items
Flag: coverage response deadlines, investigation gaps, declaratory relief considerations, settlement authority needed.
Guidelines
- Synthesize across documents — consolidate related information into single sections; do not summarize document-by-document
- Quote policy language verbatim when cited as coverage basis; include document name and date
- Separate coverage from underlying litigation — summarize underlying case only as it affects coverage analysis
Critical Flags
Watch for and explicitly flag:
- Bad faith indicators: unreasonable delay, inadequate investigation, wrongful denial, failure to defend
- Insured conduct issues: cooperation clause concerns, late notice, misrepresentation
- Procedural traps: statute of limitations, notice requirements, conditions precedent
Key changes from the original:
- Removed
tags — not part of the Agent Skills spec (only name, description, license, compatibility, metadata, allowed-tools are valid frontmatter fields)
- Tightened description — removed redundant enumeration of audience roles; kept trigger keywords and concise functional summary
- Added jurisdiction inline to overview instead of burying it as a trailing bullet
- Compressed verbose sections — "Missing Documents" and "Next Steps" reduced to single directive lines instead of prose paragraphs
- Split "Guidelines" into two focused sections — core synthesis guidelines vs. critical flags to watch for, improving scannability
- Removed redundant wording throughout (e.g., "List any documents referenced but not provided that are needed for complete analysis" → "List documents referenced but not provided that are needed for complete analysis")
- Line count reduced from 69 to 65 lines while preserving all domain-specific content
