SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Legal teams receive a steady stream of contracts that all need the same first-pass review: read the whole document, check every clause against the company's standard positions, and flag deviations. Doing this manually for each NDA, MSA, or vendor agreement is slow and inconsistent, and redlines drafted directly into documents risk bypassing lawyer oversight.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clause-by-clause playbook check: Compares liability caps, indemnification, termination, auto-renewal, governing law, payment terms, IP assignment, and confidentiality duration against a defined table of standard positions.
  • Redlines as suggestions only: Drafts proposed replacement language via the Google Docs API in suggesting mode, so every edit lands as a pending suggestion requiring lawyer sign-off.
  • Stateless duplicate detection: Uses the Slack legal channel history as the record of reviewed contracts, skipping any file that already has a posted summary.
  • Use Case: A new vendor MSA lands in the contracts Drive folder. The skill reads it in full, flags an uncapped liability clause and Net 60 payment terms, drafts suggested edits proposing the 12-month cap and Net 45, and posts a plain-English summary with links to the legal Slack channel tagged as awaiting lawyer sign-off.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run a first-pass review of the new contract in the contracts folder and post the summary with flagged clauses to the legal channel.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate first-pass contract review?

First-pass contract review is automated by reading each new contract from a Drive folder, checking clauses against a defined playbook of standard positions, and posting a summary to Slack. Redlines are drafted as Docs suggestions so a lawyer approves every change.

How does the skill avoid reviewing the same contract twice?

It searches the legal Slack channel for a prior summary post referencing each file name. A file with a matching post is treated as already handled and skipped, since each run is a fresh session with no persistent ledger.

Can the agent send redlines directly to the counterparty?

No. Redlines are only drafted as suggested edits in Google Docs via the Docs API suggesting mode. The agent never emails, shares, or messages anything to the counterparty; a lawyer must sign off on every proposed change.

What clauses does the contract playbook check?

The playbook covers liability caps, indemnification, termination for convenience, auto-renewal, governing law and venue, payment terms, IP assignment, and confidentiality duration. Each has a defined routine position and flag condition.

What happens when the playbook has no position on a clause?

The agent explicitly notes that the playbook has no stance on that clause type rather than inventing a rule. It is recorded as a note for the lawyer, not flagged as a deviation.
