Contract Review & Redline
Operational/process support only — not legal advice. A lawyer sets the standard/fallback positions and signs off on any deviation; this skill flags, structures, and routes — it does not adjudicate.
Build the clause library: standard / fallback / walk-away
For each key clause — limitation of liability, indemnity, IP ownership, term/termination, confidentiality — encode the standard (preferred) position, the fallback (acceptable) position, and the walk-away (never-acceptable) line. Set by a lawyer once, applied consistently. The fallback is what lets a non-lawyer negotiate within bounds.
Redline against the standard — flag what's material
Compare the counterparty draft to standard/fallback. Surface the deviations that change risk; note the rest without escalating. Escalating every comma drowns the signal. Concentrate on the key clauses where exposure concentrates.
Tier every flag and route approval
Each deviation gets a risk tier — within fallback (self-serve), beyond fallback (escalate to the tier's approver), or walk-away (stop). The tier is the contract between business speed and legal control; it drives who must approve. A flag with no tier and no named approver is just a highlight.
Extract key terms to a schema
Pull parties, value, effective/term dates, liability cap, indemnity scope, IP ownership, termination rights, governing law, and renewal mechanics into named fields — not prose — so the repository, the obligations tracker, and reporting can consume them.
Output
A clause library (standard/fallback/walk-away + tier + approver per clause), a structured redline review (material deviations flagged + tiered + routed), and/or a key-term extraction. Hand the playbook wiring to legal-ops-lead; the obligations/dates the terms create to obligations-and-renewals-analyst; any legal opinion or deviation sign-off to a human lawyer.
