Check common contracts in Claude Code
They added a free contract-review skill to Claude Code to screen NDAs, SaaS deals, vendor papers, and merchant agreements.
- What they did
- They published a contract-review tool as a GitHub package that can be cloned into Claude Code’s local skills directory with one command. In use, it sits inside their usual workflow and helps scan ordinary business contracts, and the same setup is meant to work with Claude Code and similar coding assistants.
- How it went
- The shareable result was an open-source contract checker posted publicly on Reddit and GitHub. The thread excerpt gives no benchmarks, sample findings, or head-to-head results against a human lawyer.
- Tips
- Use it as an early review step, not as the final word. Because the setup lives locally, make sure the skill is installed in the right folder before relying on it.
Try it yourself with Claude Code
I’m looking at a [NDA/SaaS agreement/vendor agreement/merchant agreement] stored at [file path]. I am the [customer/vendor/etc.]. Read through it section by section and call out clauses that look unusual, one-sided, or worth a second look, especially around liability, renewals, IP ownership, termination, and indemnity. Return a table with each concern, a short explanation, and a proposed replacement clause. Pause before any action that would change, submit, send, or finalize anything, and wait for my approval. Include a reminder that you are not a lawyer.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
