Legal Document Review

MITGeneralContracts

Review legal documents (NDA, contracts, agreements) for sensitive clauses, risks, and red flags

Legal Eagle

MITGeneralContracts

Legal basics assistant for developers, founders, and small teams. Use to summarize contracts, identify practical risk questions, prepare lawyer-ready issue lists, draft plain-English emails, compare SaaS terms, review NDAs, organize privacy/security obligations, and create negotiation notes. Not legal advice.

LegalEagle Agent

MITGeneralContracts

Activates LegalEagle for legal document analysis and contract intelligence. Use when you need contract clause extraction and risk flagging, GDPR/CCPA/SOX/HIPAA compliance gap analysis, NDA scope and mutuality review, IP ownership and licensing risk assessment, or plain-English summaries of complex legal documents. Always adds: not legal advice, consult a licensed attorney.

Legal Guidance Vault — Setup Interview

MITGeneralContracts

Helps a lawyer build and use a personalized Legal Guidance Vault — a local folder of structured, privilege-marked entries capturing legal guidance they've given, searchable later by topic, person, or product. Use this skill when the user says "set up my vault," "archive this meeting/email/thread/doc," "log the guidance I gave on [topic]," "save my notes from [meeting]," "what did I say about [topic]," "find the time I advised [person] on [topic]," or "search my vault for [topic]." Runs a setup interview to learn the user's tool stack (meeting notes, calendar, email, docs, messaging, vault location), then generates a customized vault prompt they can reuse in any future Claude session to start archiving and retrieving guidance.

legal:legal-response — Generate Reply from Templates

MITGeneralContracts

Generate a templated reply to a common INBOUND legal inquiry — data subject access/deletion requests (DSARs under GDPR / CCPA / CPRA), litigation / discovery hold notices to internal custodians, vendor legal questions (SLA, audit letter, certificate of insurance, compliance attestation), NDA send/decline responses to business teams, privacy inquiries from individuals, subpoena acknowledgments (always counsel-flagged), and insurance claim notifications. Customizes the chosen template with specific facts, dates, jurisdictions, and applicable regulation, and runs a built-in escalation check that BLOCKS templating for situations needing custom legal work (subpoenas, regulator letters, criminal exposure, sub-processor or internal breach notifications, threatened litigation, unprecedented matters, multi-jurisdiction conflicts). Use when the user says "respond to this DSAR", "draft a litigation hold", "vendor sent a legal question", "sales needs an NDA reply", "got a subpoena — start a draft", "privacy inquiry from a user", "insurance claim notification", or pastes inbound legal correspondence and asks for a reply. Do NOT use for: pre-launch regulatory go/no-go on a proposed initiative (use legal:compliance-check), reviewing or redlining a contract document like an MSA/DPA/SOW (use legal:review-contract), auditing live customer-facing legal pages (use legal:legal-audit), classifying an inbound NDA as green/yellow/red (use legal:triage-nda — then come back here to draft the reply), drafting outbound breach notifications to customers or regulators after a confirmed incident (escalate to counsel + incident-response runbook, NOT a template), tracking ongoing compliance program status (use operations:compliance-tracking). Defining characteristic: REACTIVE + inbound inquiry + templated reply with escalation gate.

Legal Ops

MITGeneralContracts

Draft or review legal ops documents — NDA, MSA, SaaS agreement review checklist, vendor contract terms. Use when asked to "review this contract", "draft an NDA", "what should I look for in this agreement", or "build our contract review process".

Legal Productivity

MITGeneralContracts

Legal productivity workflows for Copilot CLI: contract review, NDA triage, redline-risk, xref, evidence packs, response drafting, briefings, vendor checks, and style learning over existing legal documents.

Legal Review

MITGeneralContracts

Structures a systematic legal and compliance review of contracts, policies, or technical decisions — identifying key clauses, risks, and questions for counsel. Use when asked to review a contract, check compliance implications, flag legal risks in a technical design, or prepare for a legal consultation. Always surfaces work for qualified counsel; never replaces legal advice.

Legal Risk Assessment

MITGeneralContracts

Assesses and classifies LEGAL risks (contract exposure, regulatory liability, IP, privacy, employment, dispute, breach-notification) using a severity-by-likelihood framework with explicit escalation criteria and cited rationale. Use when the user says assess legal risk on [matter], classify the risk in this contract, what's our exposure if [scenario], does this need outside counsel, evaluate the legal risk of [deal/feature/action], or describes potential liability, contractual obligation, regulatory consequence, or litigation threat. Tie-breaker vs operations:risk-assessment — if the question is about LIABILITY, NOTIFICATION CLOCKS, REGULATORY CONSEQUENCE, or CONTRACTUAL EXPOSURE, use this skill; if it is about UPTIME, CAPACITY, OPERATIONAL CONTINUITY, or PROCESS FAILURE only (no notification clock, no liability claim), defer to operations:risk-assessment. A security incident with PII triggers BOTH skills (chain). Do NOT use for pure operational risks like outages, vendor downtime, capacity gaps with no legal exposure.

Legal Risk Assessment Skill

MITGeneralContracts

Assess and classify legal risks using a severity-by-likelihood framework with escalation criteria. Use when evaluating contract risk, assessing deal exposure, classifying issues by severity, or determining whether a matter needs senior counsel or outside legal review.

legal:triage-nda — NDA Pre-Screening

MITGeneralContracts

Rapidly triage an inbound standalone NDA (mutual or unilateral) and classify it GREEN (sign under standard delegation), YELLOW (counsel review needed), or RED (full legal review / counterproposal). Use when the user attaches or pastes an NDA and asks "is this standard?", "can we sign this?", "any landmines in this NDA?", "screen this NDA", "GREEN/YELLOW/RED this", or any equivalent fast-screen request — especially to catch embedded non-solicits, non-competes, residuals, perpetual confidentiality, hidden IP grants, or missing carveouts. Do NOT use for full multi-page commercial agreements with confidentiality sections embedded (use legal:review-contract), for drafting an NDA from scratch or responding to an NDA request (use legal:legal-response or legal:review-contract for the counterproposal pass), for checking what NDAs are already on file with a counterparty (use legal:vendor-check), for auditing the user's own NDA template (use legal:legal-audit), or for sending an already-approved NDA for signature (use legal:signature-request).

Legal Workflows

MITGeneralContracts

Legal workflows — contract review, compliance checks, NDA triage, risk assessment, legal briefs. Use when reviewing contracts, checking compliance, triaging NDAs, assessing legal risk, or drafting legal documents. Not legal advice — analysis support for qualified professionals.

Liability Cap Reasonableness Review

MITGeneralContracts

Use when assessing whether a contract's liability cap is reasonable given the deal type, contract value, risk profile, and applicable jurisdiction. Covers cap structure analysis, common carve-outs, anti-patterns, and jurisdiction-specific enforceability rules. Produces a rated assessment with recommended position (ideal / acceptable / walk-away) calibrated against market norms for the contract type.

Master Services Agreement

MITGeneralContracts

Use when drafting a master services agreement (MSA) establishing a framework under which a service provider will deliver ongoing services to a client under individual statements of work. Covers service scope, change orders, SLA terms, liability caps, insurance, IP ownership, data protection, and audit rights. Applicable across MENA, GCC, EU, UK, and US jurisdictions with civil-law and common-law adaptations.

Master Services Agreement (MSA)

MITGeneralContracts

Use when drafting a Master Services Agreement under which the parties will execute one or more Statements of Work. Covers the full MSA structure — SOW process, acceptance, IP allocation, liability caps, indemnification, DPA rider triggers, and negotiation positions. Handles MENA-specific issues (data protection riders for KSA PDPL and UAE PDPL, governing-law choices, withholding-tax provisions) and cross-border service delivery. Triggers on "msa", "master services", "master services agreement", "services framework", or "SOW framework" requests.

Meeting Briefing — Legal-Relevant Meetings

MITGeneralContracts

Build a focused pre-meeting brief for legal-relevant meetings — contract negotiations, board/committee, regulatory or compliance reviews, deal reviews, vendor/customer negotiations, litigation strategy, and cross-functional meetings with legal exposure. Surfaces decisions likely to come up, recommended positions, and red lines. Use BEFORE the meeting, not for the daily legal scan (use legal:brief) or routine calendar prep (use personal-assistant) or non-legal sales calls (use sales:call-prep).

Memorandum of Understanding

MITGeneralContracts

Use when drafting a memorandum of understanding (MOU) recording the intention of parties to collaborate on a project, partnership, or institutional arrangement. Carefully distinguishes binding from non-binding provisions, outlines responsibilities and timeline, and sets the path to a definitive agreement. Common in government-to-government, institutional, and early-stage commercial contexts across MENA and GCC where an MOU carries significant cultural and business weight.

Missing-Clauses Detector

MITGeneralContracts

Use when a contract needs a completeness check against the standard skeleton for its document type. Identifies absent mandatory, strongly recommended, and optional clauses across NDAs, MSAs, leases, employment agreements, and other common commercial instruments. Flags jurisdiction-specific mandatory provisions and links to drafting skills for remediation. Suitable as a first-pass quality gate before any detailed clause-by-clause review.

Missing Protections — Contract Gap Finder

MITGeneralContracts

Audits a contract against type-specific protection checklists to find gaps, then provides ready-to-insert clause language for each missing protection. Use when a user wants to know what protections are absent from their contract. Trigger with "/missing-protections" or "what protections is this contract missing".

MSA Against Firm Playbook

MITGeneralContracts

Use when a transactional lawyer needs to review an incoming Master Services Agreement (MSA) against the firm's or client's pre-defined negotiation playbook. Loads the playbook's positions on key clauses, compares the incoming MSA clause by clause, scores deviations, highlights required negotiation positions, and generates a tracked-changes redline with playbook-sourced replacement language. Integrates with the firm knowledge RAG for playbook retrieval.

MSA Deep Review

MITGeneralContracts

Use when conducting a comprehensive review of a Master Services Agreement (MSA) or equivalent commercial services framework agreement. Covers all high-leverage clauses — liability cap, indemnification, IP ownership of deliverables, termination, SLA, data, audit rights, most-favored-customer, and term/renewal — with severity ratings and recommended positions. Takes approximately 30–60 minutes of focused review time. Links to specialist sub-review skills for deep-dives.

MSA Variants by Industry

MITGeneralContracts

Use when a standard MSA needs to be tailored for a specific industry vertical or delivery model — SaaS, consulting, manufacturing, or marketing services. Provides the delta from the base MSA skill, covering the additional provisions, modified clauses, and industry-specific schedules (DPA, SLA, quality standards, performance metrics) that each variant requires. Triggers after [[draft-msa]] when the user specifies an industry type (SaaS, IT consulting, manufacturing, marketing, professional services).

Mutual NDA (Confidentiality Agreement)

MITGeneralContracts

Use when drafting a mutual NDA between two parties exploring a transaction or collaboration, where both sides will disclose confidential information. Covers required inputs (via intake), document structure, jurisdictional notes for LB, KSA, UAE, DIFC/ADGM, and the drafting standard for complete, ready-to-execute output. Triggers on "nda", "mutual nda", "confidentiality agreement", "non-disclosure agreement", or "mnda" requests where both parties disclose.

nda

Apache-2.0GeneralContracts

Draft and fill NDA contract templates — mutual NDA, one-way NDA, confidentiality agreement. Produces signable DOCX files from Common Paper and Bonterms standard forms. Use when user says "NDA," "non-disclosure agreement," "confidentiality contract," "confidentiality agreement," "mutual NDA," or "one-way NDA." Includes lawyer-reviewed practice guides; see openagreements.org/editors.
