ma-deal-workbench

Work with the M&A deal workbench API to produce structured deal-analysis deliverables for M&A transactions. Use when the task requires gathering deal records, draft terms, playbook rules, policy thresholds, and supporting data (consents, employees, regulatory, risk estimates, benchmarks, material contracts, diligence findings) from the workbench and producing a structured JSON deliverable that compares draft positions against playbook or policy requirements. Triggers on tasks involving SPA/APA issue registers, closing packages, committee escalation memos, transition reviews, deviation matrices, or any M&A deal-review output that references the workbench API.

# M&A Deal Workbench

Use the running M&A deal workbench to gather deal records, compare draft terms against playbook rules or policy thresholds, and produce structured JSON deliverables.

## Core Workflow

1. **Read the answer template** — The task provides an `answer_template.json` under `input/payloads/`. Parse it first. Every enum, field shape, and required output structure is defined there.
2. **Fetch the deal record** — `GET /api/deals/<deal_id>` gives headline purchase price, parties, structure, and signing date.
3. **Fetch the draft terms** — `GET /api/deals/<deal_id>/terms` gives every current draft term with `term_id`, `clause_ref`, `category`, and values.
4. **Fetch the governing rules** — `GET /api/playbooks/<playbook_id>/rules` for playbook positions or `GET /api/policies/<policy_id>/thresholds` for policy cutoffs.
5. **Fetch supporting records** — As the task requires: consents, employees, regulatory, risk estimates, benchmarks, material contracts, diligence findings, cap table, documents, notes.
6. **Compare draft against rules** — See [comparison_methodology.md](references/comparison_methodology.md) for classification.
7. **Compute numeric values** — See [output_conventions.md](references/output_conventions.md) for currency, percent, month, and delta rules.
8. **Produce JSON** — Return only the JSON object conforming to the answer template. No markdown fences, no prose outside the JSON.
