SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Reviewing a counterparty's contract against your playbook and drafting specific replacement language is slow and inconsistent. This Skill produces a proposed-language redline in markdown — unified diff or side-by-side — with severity tags, fallbacks, and escalation flags. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deviation Mapping: Classifies every clause as match, within tolerance, fixable deviation, escalation, deal-breaker, or gap before proposing changes. - Specific Replacement Language: Writes exact proposed insertions and deletions with rationale, pre-positioned fallbacks, and severity ratings instead of vague suggestions. - Two Output Modes: Renders unified diff or side-by-side table formats, plus a findings summary table with approvers. - Use Case: A counsel receives a vendor MSA, runs the redline against the practice playbook, and gets a clause-by-clause markup with BLOCKING items flagged for GC sign-off, ready to convert to tracked-changes .docx. ## Quick Start Redline the attached acme-msa.pdf against our playbook in unified diff mode.

FAQPage Schema
How do I redline a contract against a playbook?

Provide the contract file and the Skill reads it end-to-end, maps each clause against playbook positions, and proposes specific replacement language with severity ratings. Output is a markdown redline in unified diff or side-by-side format.

What is the difference between unified and side-by-side redline modes?

Unified mode shows strikethrough deletions and additions inline per section, while side-by-side mode renders a two-column table with original language on the left and proposed language on the right. Unified is the default.

Can this produce a tracked-changes Word document?

No, this Skill produces markdown only. Use the companion contract-redline-docx skill to convert the markdown redline into a .docx with tracked changes for opposing counsel.

Can I redline against a prior contract version instead of a playbook?

Yes, pass the --against prior-version flag and the Skill locates the earlier version in the matter folder or CLM and diffs against it instead of the playbook.

How are deal-breaker clauses handled in the redline?

Clauses on the Never-accept list get a BLOCKING marker with proposed deletion or rewrite, and items above reviewer authority are flagged for escalation to the GC via the escalation-flagger skill.
