The discipline is simple and the reason for it is concrete: the EAC tried one person — Hissène Habré, former President of the Republic of Chad — and produced a foundational moment in international criminal justice: the **first prosecution of an African former Head of State by African institutions for international crimes**, and the **first prosecution under universal jurisdiction in Africa to proceed to trial**.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills --skill extraordinary-african-chambers-jeanne-sulzer --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.
