AI-generated overview

Generates Accord Project contract templates with embedded variables, data models and business logic.

What it does: This skill produces machine-readable contract templates in the Accord Project format, including natural-language template text, a Concerto data model and Ergo business logic. It covers contract types such as NDAs, service agreements, rental agreements and consulting contracts, with variable terms and conditional clauses. It also documents Cicero CLI commands for parsing, triggering and drafting contracts.
When to use it: Use it when you need a reusable contract template with parameterized terms and automated clause logic. It suits legal or administrative drafting tasks such as NDAs, service agreements or rental agreements that must be filled from structured data.
Requirements: Requires the office-mcp MCP server with the create_docx and fill_docx_template tools. The documented Cicero CLI workflow needs Node.js and the @accordproject/cicero-cli package installed globally. No scripts ship with the skill.
