Purchase Agreement Issue List

Purchase Agreement Issue List is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zgbrenner/agentcounsel. It costs 47 tokens per session (3,340 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured review of an M&A purchase agreement—the contract governing a merger, stock purchase, asset purchase, or similar acquisition. It summarizes how the agreement sets the deal, allocates risk, and leaves issues open for negotiation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before signing or responding to a merger agreement, stock purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, or membership-interest purchase agreement.
Why use it?
Long acquisition agreements can hide negotiation points, missing protections, and uneven risk allocation. An issue list and risk matrix give the buyer or seller a focused set of questions for counsel.

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Purchase Agreement Issue List scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Purchase Agreement Issue List

Purpose

Review a definitive M&A acquisition agreement — a merger agreement, stock purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, membership-interest purchase agreement, or a similar acquisition agreement — from a stated side of the deal, and surface the issues it raises: the deal structure and consideration it sets, the risk it allocates, the terms worth negotiating, and the provisions it leaves out.

This skill produces draft work product for attorney review only. It is not legal advice and is not a final negotiating position. A purchase agreement is the document that, once signed, governs the transaction; whether to sign or close it is an attorney and client decision, not an output of this skill.

Use When

  • A user asks to "review this purchase agreement," "review this merger agreement," "flag the issues in this SPA or APA," "what should we push back on in this acquisition agreement," or "is this agreement reasonable for the buyer or the seller."
  • A deal team needs a structured read of a definitive acquisition agreement before signing it, countering it, or escalating it to counsel.
  • A draft merger, stock purchase, asset purchase, or membership-interest purchase agreement must be turned into an issue list and risk matrix as the front end of negotiation.

Required Inputs

  • The purchase agreement text — the full merger, stock purchase, asset purchase, membership-interest purchase, or similar acquisition agreement, uploaded or pasted. Do not review from a description, a summary, or a partial excerpt.
  • The side the review is for — buyer-side or seller-side. Where relevant, note also whether the side is the acquiring company, the target, or an investor.
  • The deal type — a merger, stock purchase, asset purchase, membership-interest purchase, or other acquisition structure.
  • The transaction stage — for example a first-draft review, a markup exchange, signing, or pre-closing.
  • The governing agreement and document set — the schedules, exhibits, disclosure schedules, ancillary agreements, and any prior LOI or term sheet, noting which are provided and which are missing.
  • Jurisdiction and governing law — as stated in the agreement, or flagged as unknown.
