Summarize Contracts Before You Sign Anything (Claude Cowork Self-Install Kit)

Know exactly what you're signing before you sign it.

You spend close to an hour reading every contract just to check for anything strange, and most of the time there isn't. You've signed things you later regretted because a clause was buried on page seven, and you don't keep a lawyer on retainer for every small deal.

That is not a diligence problem. Reading every dense agreement in full was always going to be too slow to keep up.

What this kit does

This kit turns a contract into a plain-language summary in a couple of minutes. Paste the document and Claude surfaces each party's obligations, payment terms, termination conditions, and any unusual or one-sided clauses, flagging anything that limits your liability or IP ownership. A 30 to 60 minute read becomes an instant triage.

What you can expect

You recover roughly 1 to 2 hours a week that used to go to reading contracts line by line, and your time-to-decision on a new agreement drops from the same day to the same hour. Risky clauses get flagged before they turn into disputes.

Who it's for

It's built for solopreneurs, coaches and consultants, agencies, and real estate agents who sign more agreements than they can read closely. This is a self-install kit you run yourself with your own AI agent, built for Claude Cowork first.

What's included

Skip building from scratch. No coding. You get the complete kit your own AI agent reads, sets up, and runs for you, step by step:

• A Start Here guide, so you know exactly what to open first
• The agent install instructions, the part that lets your own AI agent stand the workflow up for you
• A guided setup that interviews you about your business, so the workflow fits how you actually work
• Workflow Briefing: the plan, the inputs, and what done looks like
• Task List your agent follows to build it
• MCP Connection Guide for the tools involved
• Tool Setup notes for accounts, keys, and permissions
• Prompt Library, including the ready-to-run prompt for this workflow
• Troubleshooting and maintenance guide for the common snags
• A Next Steps and Roadmap, so you know what to automate next once this one is running
• A Run Guide you keep, so you can run it any time with no setup again

It's a small kit that earns its keep on repetition. You run it on every new agreement that lands, so the triage is instant each time.

What you'll need (not included)

This kit is the workflow, the prompts, and the setup guide. You bring your own Claude with a Cowork account and the contract itself, which pastes straight in with no connector to set up.

You'll also need your Claude account on Cowork's Pro plan or higher, so your agent can connect your tools and use the most capable model while it installs the workflow.

Not on Claude? The kit is plain files that describe what to achieve rather than which buttons to press, so a capable AI agent on another platform, like ChatGPT Work, can follow the same steps. If anything doesn't map to your setup, email support and we'll get you working.

How to install this kit

This kit runs on paste, so there's no connector to install. Open it in Claude Cowork, paste the contract, and let your agent return a plain-language summary with the clauses that matter flagged.

How Self-Install Kits Work walks through the whole flow.
