Contract Danger Detector
SkillSkill
Scan any contract for the 20 most dangerous clauses before you sign — NDAs, employment agreements, leases, SaaS terms — with severity scoring and negotiation priorities included.
About
Most people sign contracts they do not fully understand because legal language is designed to be opaque. They skim the NDA, accept the terms of service, and hope the employment contract is standard. Then something goes wrong — a non-compete blocks their next job, a lease clause costs them their security deposit, an IP assignment claim covers a side project built on personal time.
Contract Danger Detector gives any OpenClaw user the ability to scan any contract for the most common traps, one-sided clauses, and missing protections — without a law degree and without a $250/hour consultation. It covers five contract types, flags every danger clause with a three-tier severity score (Critical / Caution / Yellow Flag), ranks negotiation priorities, and includes a plain-English legal dictionary for the 60 terms that routinely trip people up.
What you get:
- SKILL.md — Full invocation protocol with NDA red flag scanner (20 clauses), employment contract decoder, freelance agreement protection checklist, lease trap detector, SaaS terms decoder, vendor one-sidedness scorer, severity rating system, negotiation priority ranking, when-to-hire-a-lawyer decision matrix, and signature readiness checklist.
Core Capabilities

- Translate SaaS terms into plain English: data ownership, unilateral change clauses, arbitration waivers, and deletion obligations
- Score vendor agreements on a Strongly Favors Vendor to Strongly Favors Buyer scale with an overall balance rating
