Quick Start

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zubair-trabzada/ai-legal-claude/main/install.sh | bash

That's it. One command installs all 14 skills, 5 agents, and the PDF generation scripts.


All 14 Commands

Contract Analysis

CommandWhat It Does
/legal review <file>Flagship — Full contract review with 5 parallel agents. Returns a Contract Safety Score, clause-by-clause analysis, and prioritized recommendations.
/legal risks <file>Deep risk analysis with severity scoring for every clause. Estimates financial exposure.
/legal compare <file1> <file2>Side-by-side comparison of two contract versions. Flags additions, removals, and dangerous changes.
/legal plain <file>Translates every clause from legalese into plain English anyone can understand.
/legal negotiate <file>Generates specific counter-proposals with replacement language for every unfavorable clause.
/legal missing <file>Finds protections that SHOULD be in the contract but aren't.

Document Generation

CommandWhat It Does
/legal nda <description>Generates a custom NDA — mutual, one-way, employee, or vendor.
/legal terms <url>Generates terms of service based on what the website actually does. GDPR/CCPA compliant.
/legal privacy <url>Generates a privacy policy by scanning what data the site collects.
/legal agreement <type>Generates business agreements — freelancer contracts, partnerships, SOWs, MSAs, and more.
/legal freelancer <file>Specialized review from the freelancer's perspective. Flags common contractor traps.

Compliance & Reporting

CommandWhat It Does
/legal compliance <url>Compliance gap analysis — GDPR, CCPA, ADA, PCI-DSS, CAN-SPAM, SOC 2.
/legal report-pdfProfessional PDF report with score gauges, risk charts, and prioritized actions.

The most powerful command. Run it on any contract and get:

  1. Contract Safety Score (0-100) with letter grade
  2. Risk Dashboard — high/medium/low risk clause counts
  3. Clause-by-Clause Analysis — every clause scored, explained in plain English, with specific fix recommendations
  4. Missing Protections — what should be there but isn't
  5. Obligations Timeline — every deadline and consequence mapped
  6. Compliance Flags — regulatory issues flagged
  7. Negotiation Priorities — ranked list of what to change first
  8. Next Steps — actionable checklist
