Produces audit-ready classification memos. - **Jurisdiction Determination** (`exchek-jurisdiction`): Determine whether an item is ITAR or EAR via guided questionnaire (USML, specially designed, etc.) with a jurisdiction memo and recommended next steps. - **Encryption Classification** (`exchek-encryption`): Handle 5A992/5D992 and related encryption classification, License Exception ENC/TSR, mass market, TSU, and BIS/NSA notification requirements. ### Screening & Risk - **CSL Screening** (`exchek-csl`): Search the U.S. Consolidated Screening List via the Trade.gov API. Supports fuzzy name matching against all federal screening lists. - **Red-Flag Assessment** (`exchek-red-flag-assessment`): Run the BIS "Know Your Customer" red-flag checklist (Supplement 3 to Part 732) for a party or transaction. - **Risk Triage** (`exchek-risk-triage`): Score export/transaction risk (low/medium/high) from classification, screening, destination, and end use. Recommends auto-approve, hold, or escalate. - **Country Risk** (`exchek-country-risk`): Produce a one-page summary of embargo/sanctions status, Entity List density, typical license expectations, and red flags for any destination. ### Licensing - **License Determination** (`exchek-license`): Determine EAR license requirements and exceptions (Part 738 Country Chart, Part 740) for a given item, ECCN, destination, and end use. - **Deemed Export Analysis** (`exchek-deemed-export`): Walk through 15 CFR 734.2(b) to determine if a release of technology or source code to a foreign national constitutes a deemed export. ### Documentation & Compliance - **Compliance Report Card** (`exchek-compliance-report`): Generate a CARFAX-style Export Compliance Report Card aggregating classification, screening, license, country risk, and red-flag results into a single customer-facing trust document. - **Export Documentation** (`exchek-export-docs`): Draft export documentation including commercial invoice export blocks, packing list annotations, SLI, AES/EEI data elements. - **Export Compliance Program** (`exchek-ecp`): Generate tailored ECP docs, SOPs, and training outlines aligned with BIS/DDTC guidance. - **Recordkeeping** (`exchek-recordkeeping`): Produce retention schedules and checklists under 15 CFR 762 and ITAR 22 CFR Part 122. - **Partner Compliance** (`exchek-partner-compliance`): Generate compliance requirements packs for distributors/partners with screening expectations, re-export assurances, and flow-down language. - **Audit Lookback** (`exchek-audit-lookback`): Run retrospective audits on historical shipments/transactions — re-screen parties, re-check ECCNs, and produce self-audit reports. --- ## For AI Agents & Developers ### Installation ExChek skills are plain-text files.
