  01-draft.md                  ← Contracts, policies, agreements

File Naming Convention

Legal phase artifacts use a numbered prefix pattern (00- through 04-) corresponding to each phase of the Legal Lifecycle. Utility files use descriptive names without numbered prefixes and serve as reusable reference documents across legal matters.

Accessing Artifacts

To find Legal artifacts from other domains:

1. List available topics: check directories under .metapowers/legal/
2. Read a specific phase artifact: .metapowers/legal/<topic>/01-draft.md
3. Contract drafts in 01-draft.md and compliance procedures in 03-comply.md are the most commonly referenced artifacts
4. The clause-library.md contains pre-approved language that can be reused across contracts
