## Overview

Draft legally compliant procedural rules (*Verfahrensordnung*) for internal reporting channels required under Germany's Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG). The skill covers the full lifecycle — from creating a new set of procedural rules to validating an existing document against all mandatory HinSchG provisions.

Mandatory for all German companies with 50 or more employees since December 2023.

## Example Chat

> **You:** Create a Verfahrensordnung for our internal reporting channel. We are a mid-sized manufacturing company with 180 employees, no existing whistleblower system. We want to use an external ombudsperson (law firm) and an anonymous digital reporting portal.
>
> **Agent:** I'll create the procedural rules for your internal reporting channel. Let me start by loading the HinSchG requirements and using the template as a base…
>
> *(The agent copies the template, fills in company-specific details, configures the ombudsperson section, adds the digital portal as the anonymous reporting channel, and runs both validation tools.)*
>
> **Agent:** The Verfahrensordnung is ready. Both compliance checks pass — all 13 mandatory sections are present, timelines are correctly specified (7 days acknowledgement, 3 months feedback), and the 3-year deletion mandate is properly documented. I've left placeholders for contact details and the portal URL that you'll need to fill in.

## Output Excerpt

```markdown
## 4. Verfahrensablauf

### 4.1 Eingang und Eingangsbestätigung

Die interne Meldestelle bestätigt der hinweisgebenden Person den
Eingang der Meldung **innerhalb von 7 Tagen** nach Eingang
(§17 Abs. 1 S. 2 HinSchG).

### 4.4 Rückmeldung

Die interne Meldestelle gibt der hinweisgebenden Person **innerhalb
von 3 Monaten** nach der Eingangsbestätigung eine Rückmeldung über
die ergriffenen oder geplanten Folgemaßnahmen sowie deren Gründe
(§17 Abs. 2 S. 1 HinSchG).
```

## Validation Tools

The skill includes two extension tools that run automated compliance checks:

- **hinschg_compliance_checker** — Scans the procedural rules draft against all 13 mandatory HinSchG sections (§§2, 8, 10–17, 36). Reports missing sections and unfilled placeholders.
- **anonymity_protocol_verifier** — Validates anonymity and confidentiality provisions, checks the 3-year data deletion mandate (§11), and verifies the two legally required timelines (7-day acknowledgement, 3-month feedback). Flags incorrect retention periods.

## Getting Started

Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the *Whistleblower System Design (HinSchG)* skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.
