# Contract Review Review and negotiate contracts effectively. ## Key Clauses to Watch ### Liability & Indemnification - **Limitation of Liability**: Cap at contract value (not revenue) - **Indemnification**: Who pays if something goes wrong - **Mutuality**: Both sides should have same protections - **Exclusions**: What's NOT limited (IP infringement, death/injury) ### Termination - **For cause**: Breach + cure period (30 days standard) - **For convenience**: Without cause, 30-90 days notice - **Termination fee**: Breakage costs if early termination - **Survival**: Which clauses survive termination (confidentiality, IP) ### IP Ownership - **Work for hire**: Company owns deliverables - **Pre-existing IP**: Clearly listed and excluded - **License grant**: What rights does each party get? - **Improvements**: Who owns modifications to pre-existing IP? ## Contract Types | Type | Use | Key Terms | |------|-----|-----------| | MSA | Ongoing services | Scope, pricing, liability | | SOW | Specific projects | Deliverables, timeline, acceptance | | NDA | Confidential information | Definition, term, exclusions | | SaaS | Software access | SLA, data, uptime | | Contractor | Services | IP, indepe

Where does this skill come from?
From cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills, a repository with 364 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
