Reviews an employment agreement clause by clause, flags deviations from market-standard terms - non-compete scope, IP assignment breadth, cause definitions, equity mechanics - and produces a review table with recommended asks, explicitly bounded as not legal advice. Use when someone asks "can you review my offer letter", "is this non-compete normal", "what does this IP assignment clause mean", "should I push back on this severance term", or has an employment agreement in hand before signing.…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Employment Contract Review

An employment contract hides most of its risk in standard-looking boilerplate, and the clauses that hurt are the ones that only activate on the way out: termination, non-compete, IP assignment. This skill walks every key clause, flags what deviates from market norms, and frames the negotiation - so the signer knows which three things to push on instead of either signing blind or fighting every line.

This is contract literacy and negotiation framing, not legal advice. Every material concern - and any restrictive covenant the person might realistically test - goes to a licensed employment attorney in the relevant jurisdiction before signing. Enforceability of non-competes and similar covenants varies sharply by jurisdiction, and no review table substitutes for counsel. State this boundary in the output itself.

## Operating procedure

Read the contract as the party with less power. Every clause that is vague, broad, or one-sided favors the drafter - usually the employer. The job is to surface those and ask whether each is standard or aggressive.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add skillmedev/skills/employment-contract@sha256:058b29045934459f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.bea4ea5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
