Fill standard legal agreement templates (NDAs, SAFEs, NVCA docs, employment) as DOCX files.
Finds standard U.S. legal agreement templates and fills them into reviewable DOCX drafts, locally or through a hosted endpoint.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.open-agreements%2Fopen-agreements/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

OpenAgreements helps people and software agents find primary-source-backed U.S. legal guidance and produce reviewable DOCX files from standard agreement templates.
OpenAgreements provides legal information and document mechanics, not legal advice. It does not decide whether a form or clause is right for a transaction, and generated documents are drafts for human review.
The project’s longer-term goal is a citable conformance layer for legal AI: primary law becomes inspectable requirements, an AI can check a document against them, and a lawyer owns the final call. Read Why OpenAgreements Exists for the rationale; this README stays focused on using the project.
Install the CLI locally, inspect the available forms, and fill the Common Paper Mutual NDA:
The last command writes mutual-nda.docx. Open it in Word or another DOCX
viewer and review every filled term before signature. Defaults supply the
standard one-year term, Delaware governing law, and other omitted cover terms;
the CLI reports any priority fields that still need attention.
For a complete, copyable example and field-review steps, follow the quick start.
The standard form is authoritative until rendering. Your supplied values become the transaction-specific inputs. The generated DOCX is an output for review; it is never automatically accepted or signed.
The legal-content path is separate: practice guides cite primary sources, surveys compare jurisdictions, and checklists turn requirements into review steps. Those materials can inform a decision, but they do not mutate an agreement.

List all available legal agreement templates as a paginated compact catalog. Returns lightweight metadata for discovery — call get_template for full per-field detail. Templates are returned in stable lexicographic order by template_id. For finding templates by topic, jurisdiction, or source, use search_templates instead.
limitcursorSearch for legal agreement templates by keyword. Uses BM25 ranking to find the most relevant templates matching your query. Searches across template names, descriptions, categories, sources, and field definitions. Use this instead of list_templates when you know what kind of agreement you need.
queryrequiredsourcecategorymax_resultsFetch a single template definition with full field metadata.
template_idrequiredFill a legal agreement template with field values and return a document via URL or MCP resource preview metadata. For field-selector templates (e.g. NVCA), also generates a redline (track-changes) document comparing the filled output against the standard form.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
