Score contract risk clause-by-clause against organizational playbooks using a weighted model, classify results as GREEN/YELLOW/RED, and produce escalation-ready remediation guidance with confidence scoring and audit traceability.

Score contract risk clause-by-clause against organizational playbooks using a weighted model, classify results as GREEN/YELLOW/RED, and produce escalation-ready remediation guidance with confidence scoring and audit traceability. Use when reviewing vendor, customer, SaaS, procurement, licensing, partnership, and services agreements before approval or signature. Supports single-contract and portfolio scoring modes, jurisdiction-agnostic with [JURISDICTION-SPECIFIC] markers.

Use this skill to assign defensible, repeatable risk scores to contracts by combining: - Clause-level deviation analysis versus playbook standards. - Weighted aggregation into a composite risk score. - Severity classification (GREEN / YELLOW / RED). - Action packages for negotiation, remediation, and escalation. **Covers:** - Playbook-based and general-standard scoring. - Single-contract and portfolio scoring. - Clause interactions (e.g., uncapped indemnity + weak liability cap mismatch). - Confidence-scored outputs with traceable rationale. - Escalation routing based on thresholds and materiality. **Does not:** - Replace legal counsel or delegated approval authority. - Guarantee legal enforceability in any jurisdiction. - Perform actuarial or financial-risk simulation. - Draft full contracts from scratch. This is a jurisdiction-agnostic skill. Determine governing law from the agreement and adapt scoring assumptions accordingly. [JURISDICTION-SPECIFIC] Localize and verify at minimum: - Limits on exclusion/limitation of liability. - Indemnity enforceability and public-policy carveouts. - Data protection contract requirements. - Mandatory consumer protections and unfair terms controls. - Penalty/liquidated damages treatment. - Forum selection and arbitration enforceability. If governing law is missing, treat this as a material risk and escalate. Use **CLARIFY** gates when an answer changes scoring outcomes or escalation. Required context questions: 1. **Represented side**: customer/buyer, vendor/supplier, licensor/licensee, other. ...
