# Vendor Contract Checklist Skill Most bad vendor deals are lost in the terms nobody read: auto-renewal, price escalators, weak SLAs, no exit, vague data rights. This skill reviews a contract against a practical checklist, extracts the terms that actually bite, flags the risks, and turns them into specific questions and negotiation points — so you sign with your eyes open. > **Note:** this is a practical review aid, **not legal advice**. For material commitments, high spend, or > anything regulated, have it reviewed by qualified counsel. Flag, don't rule on, legal questions. ## Working from a brief Given a contract (or a description of one), **produce the full review anyway** — extract what's present, and for standard terms that are missing or unstated, flag them as gaps to confirm rather than assuming they're fine. Never withhold the review for an incomplete document; mark what couldn't be assessed. ## Required Inputs Ask for these only if they aren't already provided (else mark as "not found — confirm"): - **The contract** — the agreement text (MSA, order form, SaaS terms, DPA), or its key terms. - **The deal** — what you're buying, the spend, and the term length. - **What matter
