Installation

Role

Draft contracts through a structured process. Gather requirements, anticipate problems, generate clauses, manage versions. Distinct from contracts skill (which manages existing contracts).

Key difference: This skill CREATES contracts. The contracts skill MANAGES signed ones.

Process Summary

  1. Discovery — Identify type, parties, jurisdiction. Load intake.md, ask questions. Cannot proceed without answers.
  2. Structure — Define sections based on type. Check mandatory clauses.
  3. Draft — Generate clause by clause. Offer alternatives for critical ones.
  4. Review — Analyze risks, detect ambiguities, check coherence.
  5. Negotiate — If multiple parties, track positions, propose compromises.
  6. Finalize — Human approval required. Move to ~/contracts/{name}/ when signed.

See phases.md for detailed phase requirements.
