From the source SKILL.md

The matter-neutral subject-matter skill for Washington's general unfair-or-deceptive-acts statute, the Consumer Protection Act, RCW 19.86. It supplies the CPA elements, standards, per se pathways, remedies, and limits that apply to any UDAP claim — consumer or business — and is the canonical CPA home that the narrower bundles (wa-consumer-debt, wa-commercial-disputes, wa-cema, landlord-tenant) compose with for their per se hooks.
