Purpose

Counsel tools & templates

These artifacts are meant to be adapted and filled in by human counsel. They are not automated decision-makers.

  • Quick triage cards for new ideas and scenarios.
  • Mini-decks and talk-tracks for stakeholder meetings.
  • Quote packs and pins maps for sourcing and navigation.
Use pattern

Start from S5 and S6, then drop into the tools that match your step in the workflow (triage, deep-dive, communication, documentation).

Scenario tools & evidence anchors

When you move from S5 (Counsel work) and S6 (Acceptance matrix) into concrete tools, treat each template as a way to make your evidence pins and lane decisions explicit.

  • Lane design tools. Use the S6 acceptance matrix and any scenario-specific tables (foreseeable misuse, penumbral spine) to record how you landed Green / Amber / Red decisions and what would change your view.
  • Evidence pinning and sourcing. Use S5’s matter-level checklist, the Reading Stack index, and the Model evaluations & welfare handout together: note which sources you relied on, pin them, and re-check them if a key policy, case, or report is updated.
  • Communication aids. Use the briefing decks, quote packs, and cards from this page to translate technical evaluations and policy language into board-ready narratives, without adding new factual claims.
Navigation & traceability

Pins & prudence trace

Internal only

These tools are internal to the counsel and governance team. They are not designed as stand-alone client or regulator deliverables without further editing and context.
