At a glance

A skill your agent uses when reviewing whether a website or web application has a visible Terms of Service link accessible from every page.

  • Reviewing whether a website
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Web application has a visible Terms of Service link accessible from every page

What it does

Terms Of Service is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing whether a website or web application has a visible Terms of Service link accessible from every page.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Policy and terms drafting. The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing whether a website
  • Web application has a visible Terms of Service link accessible from every page

Example prompts

  • “/terms-of-service”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    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):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    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

Terms Of Service loads about 585 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 296 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~585
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.9k

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

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Terms of Service protect your business by limiting liability, establishing jurisdiction, setting rules for user conduct, and specifying your rights to user-generated content — but only if users could reasonably discover and read them.

Quick Reference

  • Link to Terms of Service from the site footer on every page
  • Terms of Service (ToS) are not legally required in most jurisdictions, but they are best practice for any service with user accounts
  • Courts have found ToS unenforceable when they were not clearly presented or linked before the user took action
  • For enforceable acceptance, require users to check a checkbox 'I agree to the Terms of Service' during signup
  • Keep terms up to date — outdated terms that contradict current practices can create legal liability

Check

Check whether the website footer contains a link to a Terms of Service page. Verify the link is present on all pages including interior pages. Check that during user registration there is a checkbox or explicit acceptance step for the terms.

Fix

Add a 'Terms of Service' link to the site footer on every page. For services with user accounts, add an explicit acceptance checkbox during registration that links to the terms. Ensure the terms page has a stable URL.

Explain

Explain what Terms of Service are for, why they need to be discoverable before a user takes action, and the difference between browsewrap (just a link) and clickwrap (explicit acceptance) agreements.

Code Review

Review server config, headers, forms, and integration points related to Link to your terms of service in the footer. Flag exact responses, cookies, or browser behaviors that violate the rule, and verify them against the effective production-like response.
