Remediation Suggestions
- Remove the prescribed wording and all references to the specifically named commercial service from the primary Skill instructions, examples, templates, and reference guides.
- Replace the referral with neutral language advising users to contact:
- A locally licensed lawyer;
- A recognized bar association;
- A government or nonprofit legal-aid organization; or
- Another independently verified legal-service provider selected by the user.
- Do not require professional-help referrals in every applicable response. Present them only when relevant to the user's risk level and keep them separate from the requested document.
- If a named commercial provider must be retained:
- Clearly disclose any sponsorship, ownership, referral fee, or affiliation;
- State the basis on which the provider was selected;
- Avoid implying official endorsement;
- Obtain explicit user consent before presenting or linking to the provider; and
- Offer neutral alternatives with comparable prominence.
- Add a content-governance rule prohibiting hidden advertising, affiliate promotion, and unverified endorsements in Skill instructions and bundled reference material.
- Review all duplicated content so that removing the referral from
SKILL.mddoes not leave the same output manipulation in assets or references. - Preserve the existing legal disclaimers and escalation guidance, but make them provider-neutral.
