What it does

Reference: review of SaaS subscription agreements with attention to the terms that matter most in subscription deals, auto-renewal mechanics, price escalation, data portability, uptime SLAs, and subprocessor rights. Loaded by /commercial-legal:review when a SaaS or subscription agreement is detected.

SaaS / Subscription Agreement Review

Matter context

Matter context. Check ## Matter workspaces in the practice-level CLAUDE.md. If Enabled is ✗ (the default for in-house users), skip the rest of this paragraph, skills use practice-level context and the matter machinery is invisible. If enabled and there is no active matter, ask: "Which matter is this for? Run /commercial-legal:matter-workspace switch <slug> or say practice-level." Load the active matter's matter.md for matter-specific context and overrides. Write outputs to the matter folder at ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/commercial-legal/matters/<matter-slug>/. Never read another matter's files unless Cross-matter context is on.


Purpose

SaaS agreements have a distinct risk profile from one-time vendor contracts. The dollars compound over renewals, the data accumulates, and the switching cost grows every month. This skill reviews with that in mind.

It runs the standard playbook check from ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/commercial-legal/CLAUDE.md and adds a SaaS-specific overlay on the terms that bite hardest in subscription deals.

Jurisdiction assumption

SaaS terms (auto-renewal notice requirements, price-escalation caps, data-portability mandates, subprocessor rules) are jurisdiction-sensitive, California, New York, and EU rules diverge materially, and some states have auto-renewal statutes that override private contract terms. This review applies the team's positions from ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/commercial-legal/CLAUDE.md, which assume the governing law recorded there. If the agreement picks a different governing law, or the deal spans jurisdictions with statutory overrides (e.g., EU-based users, California consumers), flag it, the analysis may not transfer as written.
