Tools (4)
🟢list_templates(cursor, limit)
List all available legal agreement templates as a paginated compact catalog. Returns lightweight metadata for discovery — call get_template for full per-field detail. Templates are returned in stable lexicographic order by template_id. For finding templates by topic, jurisdiction, or source, use search_templates instead.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"cursor": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Opaque pagination cursor returned by a prior call. Omit on the first page."
},
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 100,
"description": "Page size (default 25, max 100)."
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢search_templates(query, category, source, max_results)
Search for legal agreement templates by keyword. Uses BM25 ranking to find the most relevant templates matching your query. Searches across template names, descriptions, categories, sources, and field definitions. Use this instead of list_templates when you know what kind of agreement you need.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Search query. Examples: \"NDA\", \"employment offer letter\", \"NVCA stock purchase\", \"data processing GDPR\", \"non-compete Wyoming\"."
},
"category": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional category filter (exact, case-insensitive). Values: confidentiality, employment, sales-licensing, data-compliance, deals-partnerships, professional-services, venture-financing, other."
},
"source": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional source filter (exact, case-insensitive). Values: \"Common Paper\", \"Bonterms\", \"Y Combinator\", \"NVCA\", \"OpenAgreements\"."
},
"max_results": {
"type": "number",
"description": "Maximum results to return (1-50, default 10)."
}
},
"required": [
"query"
]
}🟢get_template(template_id)
Fetch a single template definition with full field metadata.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"template_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Template ID, e.g. \"common-paper-mutual-nda\"."
}
},
"required": [
"template_id"
]
}⚪fill_template(template, values, return_mode, include_redline, redline_base)
Fill a legal agreement template with field values and return a document via URL or MCP resource preview metadata. For field-selector templates (e.g. NVCA), also generates a redline (track-changes) document comparing the filled output against the standard form.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"template": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Template ID, e.g. \"common-paper-mutual-nda\"."
},
"values": {
"type": "object",
"description": "Field values to fill in the template.",
"additionalProperties": true
},
"return_mode": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"url",
"mcp_resource"
],
"description": "Artifact return mode. Defaults to \"url\"."
},
"include_redline": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Generate a redline (track-changes) document. Defaults to true for field-selectors."
},
"redline_base": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"source",
"clean"
],
"description": "Base document for redline comparison. \"source\" = raw standard form (default), \"clean\" = cleaned intermediate."
}
},
"required": [
"template"
]
