**What you see**

The CEO chat panel is the only place you talk to the team. When Harper is brought in for legal, her name and avatar appear in the same panel as a new bubble, and a Task Card opens with her as the owner. Plain-English analysis lands on the card as an Asset.

**How to bring Harper in**

1. Open the CEO chat panel.
2. Type what you want, naming her if you know it's legal:
   - "Have Harper review this contract."
   - "Harper, draft an NDA for [counterparty]."
   - "Write our Terms of Service — Harper."
   - "Is this campaign GDPR-compliant? — Harper's call."
3. Or just describe the situation ("someone sent me a contract") — Astra brings her in.
4. Open her Task Card to read risk summary, flagged clauses, suggested redlines, and a sign / negotiate / walk recommendation.

**What Harper owns**

- Contract review (NDAs, vendor agreements, service contracts, employment) — risk summary + redlines.
- ToS and Privacy Policy drafting + plain-English summaries.
- NDA triage (green / yellow / red).
- GDPR / CCPA compliance questions.
- A direct call-out when something needs a real attorney before signing.

**How the team coordinates around this**

For copy that touches legal (ToS summaries on a landing page, etc.), Harper drafts and Casey polishes. You'll see both bubbles appear in the same Task Card thread.
