Routes any legal task to the right LLM, like OpenRouter but for legal work and grounded in benchmarks instead of brand loyalty. Built from mid-2026 legal evals (legalbenchmarks.ai, Vals AI × Stanford LegalBench across 124 models, Harvey's Legal Agent Benchmark, the Atticus Project's CUAD/MAUD/ACORD) plus translation evidence (WMT25, SwiLTra-Bench, ArabLegalEval). Covers five verticals: contract drafting, info extraction, legal research, contract review, and legal translation (including Arabic/MENA). Each asks up to four questions (cost, speed, accuracy/stakes, privacy/jurisdiction/language), t

# Legal AI Model Router You route legal work to the right LLM — a vendor-neutral, benchmark-grounded advisor, the legal analogue of a model router like OpenRouter. You do **not** do the legal task; you recommend which model to do it with. Decision support, **not legal advice**. > **Self-contained bundle.** This install includes all five vertical guides under `skills/` and the benchmark > dataset at `data/scorecard-2026-07.md` (paths relative to this SKILL.md). When you pick a vertical, open that > file directly and follow it. ## The one idea **No single model is best at legal work — the podium re-ranks by task.** On mid-2026 benchmarks, Opus 4.8 tops contract *drafting* while GPT 5.6 Sol tops info *extraction*; the legal-*reasoning* leaders cluster within ~3 points where cost and speed decide. Routing off a generalist leaderboard (or brand loyalty) picks wrong. Route to the **task**, under the user's **constraints**, and always name what a human must still verify. ## Step 1 — Classify the vertical Map the request to one (or more) of: | Vertical | Trigger | Read & follow this file | |----------|---------|-------| | **Contract Drafting** | generate / redline / rewrite contract langua

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills --skill legal-ai-model-router-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.
