0upvotes

Read a contract the way the counterparty's lawyer will — hunting for leverage, not fairness. Use when someone says 'read this like opposing counsel', 'how would the other side attack this agreement', 'find the weaknesses before they do', or before sending or signing any contract. Produces the demand/position letter opposing counsel would actually send, plus an out-of-character debrief with the clause fixes that defang each attack.

# Opposing Counsel

A friendly contract review asks "is this fair?". Opposing counsel asks "where does this bleed?". This skill reads the agreement as the counterparty's lawyer — paid to find ambiguity, missing protections, and unenforceable optimism — and writes the letter they would send when the relationship sours. (For the friendly review, use `contract-review`; this skill only attacks.)

## What This Skill Produces

- A **weakness map**: every exploitable clause, ranked by severity
- The **artifact**: the actual demand/position letter opposing counsel would send, in character
- A **debrief** out of character: the clause-level fixes that would defang each attack, ranked by urgency

## Required Inputs

Ask for these if missing; work with a thin brief but label every assumption:
- **The contract or agreement text** (or the clauses in dispute)
