zgbrenner stocks gary with ready-made U.S. legal tasks

A curated library of pre-built legal tasks, with the hard prompt-engineering already done, so lawyers can start working instead of configuring.

zgbrenner has substantially expanded gary's built-in catalog of what the fork calls "Saved Legal Tasks" - a set of eight ready-to-run tasks tuned for U.S. legal work. Each one carries the carefully worded AI instructions that turn a general-purpose model into something useful for a common legal job, and the language throughout has been standardized to match how U.S. lawyers actually talk. New users land on an onboarding checklist that points them at these tasks rather than a blank screen.

The real value sits in the task definitions themselves. They encode genuine domain know-how about how to prompt an AI for legal work, and they're built to be portable - decoupled from the fork's branding, so the substance travels even if you don't adopt the rest.

So what Anyone sizing up Mike forks for a U.S. practice should look here first, because these presets are the closest thing to out-of-the-box legal usefulness.
