Route Contract Drafting

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Someone asks which model should I use to draft this clause/agreement
• Best AI for drafting contracts
• Route this drafting task
• Is about to generate/redline contract text and hasnt fixed a model

Example prompts

• “which model should I use to draft this clause/agreement”
• “best AI for drafting contracts”
• “route this drafting task”
• “/route-contract-drafting”

Requirements

• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): AskUserQuestion, Read

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

1. 1Infer, then ask only what's missing
2. 2Route using the scorecard
3. 3Output (use this exact shape)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 045f738. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

  • AskUserQuestion
  • Read

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

  • legalbenchmarks.ai

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Route Contract Drafting loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 159 tokens; SKILL.md has 609 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~159

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.6k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~2.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description

Pick the right LLM for CONTRACT DRAFTING — generating, redlining, or rewriting contract language from instructions. Vendor-neutral routing grounded in mid-2026 legal benchmarks (legalbenchmarks.ai Contract Drafting). Asks up to 4 quick questions (cost, speed, accuracy/ stakes, privacy/jurisdiction/language), then recommends a primary model + fallback + what to avoid + what a human must verify. Use when someone asks "which model should I use to draft this clause/agreement", "best AI for drafting contracts", "route this drafting task", or is about to generate/redline contract text and hasn't fixed a model.

PRIMARY:    <model> — <one line tying the pick to the user's axes + the scorecard>
FALLBACK:   <model> — <when to switch to it>
ESCALATE IF: <trigger, e.g. "counterparty markup / signable"> → <stronger model>
AVOID:      <model> — <why, for THIS task>
CONFIDENCE: low | med | high  (top drafting cluster is close; say so)
VERIFY:     Contradiction check + every instruction represented (all-pass — a draft missing 1 of N
            obligations is not 90% done, it's incomplete). Human sign-off for signable text.
