What it does
Guides a user through a Connecticut divorce workflow, serving as a planner, checklist, and pre-mediation pass (not a lawyer). Refers to UPL guidance and CT statutes, forms, and guidelines, and emphasizes mode-based navigation from pre-flight intake to post-judgment modification.
How it works
Defines nine operating modes, each with explicit CT-focused content:
- Mode 0 — Pre-flight intake: asks ten questions to route to the appropriate mode and pre-populate data.
- Mode 1 — Eligibility triage: determines if nonadversarial dissolution is possible based on six criteria; uses CT statutes cited, and requires joint petition (JD-FM-242) if eligible.
- Mode 2 — Financial affidavit prep (JD-FM-6): walks through A. Weekly income, B. Weekly expenses, C. Assets, D. Liabilities, plus a reconciliation pass; outputs a DRAFT — REVIEW WITH ATTORNEY BEFORE FILING structured affidavit and references the JD-FM-6 PDF link.
- Mode 3 — CT child support calculator (JD-FM-220 / CCSG): applies the post-2026-08-01 or pre-2026 schedule, computes through an eight-step worksheet using net weekly income, combined income, basic obligation, percentages, add-ons, and arrearage components as applicable.
- Modes 4–8 (implied): cover alimony framework, parenting plan, settlement agreement scaffold, filing packet + timeline, and post-judgment modification/enforcement, each aligned with CT statutes, Practice Books, and CCSG/JD-FM forms cited in the description.
The skill uses the allowed tools Read, Write, Edit, WebFetch, WebSearch to gather forms and ensure references align with CT resources. It provides hard gate reminders (UPL, safety, non-CT, privileged information) and escalates to safer resources when needed.
When to use it
Triggered by CT divorce-related phrases (e.g., connecticut divorce, ct divorce, jd-fm, nonadversarial divorce, ct child support, ct alimony, ct qdro, parenting plan ct, divorce forms, untangle, file for divorce, ccsg-1, jd-fm-220, post-judgment modification). Use mode sequencing from Mode 0 through Mode 8 as the case progresses; mode order is typical (0 → 1 → 2 → 3 → 5 → 6 → 7).
What it can touch
Operates with tools: Read, Write, Edit, WebFetch, WebSearch to access CT forms and statutes, and to draft/assemble documents per JD-FM-6, JD-FM-220, CCSG schedules, and related Practice Book provisions.
Caveats
States this is not legal advice, clarifies no attorney-client relationship, and notes AI output may be outdated or misaligned with statutes; requires attorney review before filing. Includes hard refusals for non-CT filings and safety concerns, and warns that forms and statutes change; cross-check with jud.ct.gov and current Practice Book.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills --skill connecticut-divorce-planner-stephane-boghossian --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills, a repository with 618 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
