What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the risk of signing one-way commercial NDAs that hide material exposure through overbroad confidentiality definitions, one-way remedies, and missing carve-outs that would normally protect business operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Clause-by-clause issue logging: Produces a structured log with risk banding (H/M/L), preferred redlines, fallbacks, rationale, owner, and deadline.
  • Recipient/Discloser perspective support: Supports analysis from the user’s chosen stance while remaining jurisdiction-agnostic by focusing on commercial risk and operational feasibility.
  • Negotiation-ready outputs: Generates an executive summary with top negotiation points and a recommended path (sign as-is, sign with changes, escalate), plus a disciplined redlining approach.

Quick Start

Use the nda-review skill to review the attached one-way NDA and produce an executive summary plus a clause-by-clause issue log with preferred redlines and fallbacks.
