Commercial Legal

Review a vendor agreement, NDA, or SaaS subscription against your playbook. Identifies the agreement structure from titles, routes to the right review skill (vendor-agreement-review, nda-review, saas-msa-review), and integrates the output into a single memo. Use when the user says "review this contract", "check this MSA", "is this NDA okay", "look at this SaaS agreement", or attaches an inbound agreement for review.

Reference: fast triage of inbound NDAs into GREEN / YELLOW / RED so the team only spends lawyer time on the ones that need it. Built for sales and BD to self-serve before pinging legal. Loaded by /commercial-legal:review when an NDA is detected.

Show contracts with cancel-by deadlines coming up and warn before notice windows close, working from a maintained renewal register. Use when the user asks "what's renewing soon", "what renewals are due", "did we miss a cancellation window", "add this to the renewal tracker", or on a scheduled basis. Receives handoffs from saas-msa-review.

Reference: review of SaaS subscription agreements with attention to the terms that matter most in subscription deals — auto-renewal mechanics, price escalation, data portability, uptime SLAs, and subprocessor rights. Loaded by /commercial-legal:review when a SaaS or subscription agreement is detected.

Review and approve (or reject) pending playbook update proposals from the playbook-monitor agent and apply approved changes to the practice profile. Use when the playbook-monitor agent has surfaced proposals, when the user says "review playbook proposals", "what playbook updates are pending", or wants to step through deviation-driven playbook changes.

Trace how a contract has changed across its base agreement and all amendments — either a summary of all changes over time, or a provision trace for a specific clause. Use when the user says "what changed in this contract over time", "show me the amendment history", "where's the latest [clause]", "how has [provision] evolved", or uploads multiple versions of an agreement.

Route a contract issue to the right approver per the escalation matrix in `~/.codebuddy/plugins/config/legal-workflows/commercial-legal/practice-profile.md`, and draft the ask. Use when the user says "who needs to approve this", "escalate this", "does this need GC sign-off", "route this for approval", or when another skill finds an issue that exceeds the reviewer's authority.

Translates a contract review into a summary the business stakeholder will actually read. Not a legal memo — a two-minute answer to "can I sign this and what do I need to know." Use when user says "summarize for the business", "write this up for [stakeholder]", "explain this to procurement", "non-legal summary", or when a review is done and needs to go to someone outside legal.

Reference: review of an inbound vendor agreement against the team playbook in `~/.codebuddy/plugins/config/legal-workflows/commercial-legal/practice-profile.md`. Flags deviations, assesses risk, generates specific redline language, and routes to the right approver. Loaded by /commercial-legal:review when a vendor MSA, services agreement, or similar is detected.
