/c-level-agents:gc-review — General Counsel Forcing Questions

Command: /c-level-agents:gc-review <plan>

The General Counsel lens. Six questions before any contract, term sheet, IP move, or regulatory commitment. This is a lane gstack has zero of — and one where a single missed clause costs more than a year of engineering.

⚠️ Not legal advice. This command surfaces the right questions to ask before talking to outside counsel. Always engage qualified counsel for binding decisions.

When to Run

  • Before signing any contract > $100K or > 1 year
  • Before issuing equity (employee grants, advisor grants)
  • Before a term sheet response
  • Before entering a regulated market (healthcare, fintech, defense)
  • Before any open-source license decision in core IP
  • Before an M&A LOI

The Six GC Questions

1. IP Ownership

Who owns the IP being created or shared in this transaction?

  • Work-for-hire vs license vs joint.
  • For employees and contractors: written IP assignment in place?
  • For OSS: license compatibility checked?

2. Liability & Indemnity

What's the liability cap, and what's carved out from it?

  • Standard cap: 12 months of fees.
  • Carve-outs: IP infringement, data breach, willful misconduct.
  • Mutual indemnity desirable.

3. Data Processing

What personal data is involved, and is a DPA in place?

  • GDPR / CCPA scope?
  • Subprocessor flow-down?
  • Data residency requirements?

4. Termination & Renewal

What's the termination right, what's the notice period, and what's auto-renew?

  • Termination for convenience vs cause.
  • Notice period (30 / 60 / 90 days).
  • Auto-renewal trap?

5. Regulatory Surface

Does this expose the company to a new regulatory regime?

  • Healthcare → HIPAA.
  • Fintech → BSA/AML, state money-transmitter.
  • Medical device → FDA, MDR, ISO 13485.
  • Data → GDPR, CCPA, state breach laws.

6. Employment / Equity

If this is a hire or contractor: jurisdiction, classification, equity grant, IP assignment?

  • Misclassification risk?
  • Equity vesting standard (4-year, 1-year cliff)?
  • Acceleration triggers?
  • 409A current?

Workflow

  1. Read the contract / term sheet end to end
  2. Run the six questions
  3. Identify the top-3 issues that need outside counsel review
  4. Apply the verdict

Workflow Integration with general-counsel-advisor skill

Since v2.5.1, this command is backed by a full skill at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/vendor/c-level-advisor/general-counsel-advisor/ with two Python tools:

# Automated contract scan (12 founder-killer patterns)
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/vendor/c-level-advisor/general-counsel-advisor/scripts/contract_risk_scanner.py path/to/contract.txt

# Term sheet scoring (0-100 founder-friendliness)
python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/vendor/c-level-advisor/general-counsel-advisor/scripts/term_sheet_analyzer.py path/to/term_sheet.json

The cs-general-counsel-advisor agent orchestrates both tools plus 3 references (contracts playbook, IP + regulatory, term sheet decoder).
