Analyze a contract or legal document and produce a structured, plain-language summary that highlights obligations, risks, and items requiring attention, enabling informed decision-making without replacing legal counsel.

ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK:
Work through the document systematically using these steps:

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (2-3 sentences)
   - What type of agreement this is, between whom, and its core purpose
   - The single most important thing the reader should know

2. KEY TERMS & OBLIGATIONS
   - List each party's primary obligations in plain language
   - Highlight: payment terms, deliverables, service levels, exclusivity clauses
   - Note any performance benchmarks or acceptance criteria
   - Flag any non-standard or unusually one-sided terms

3. IMPORTANT DATES & DEADLINES
   - Present as a chronological list: Date | Event/Deadline | Consequence of Missing
   - Include: effective date, milestones, renewal dates, termination notice periods

4. FINANCIAL TERMS
   - Summarize all monetary commitments: fees, penalties, caps, escalation clauses
   - Note payment schedules and any conditions that trigger additional costs

5. RISK FLAGS
   - Identify clauses that create significant exposure, grouped by severity (High / Medium / Low)
   - Common areas to check: liability caps, indemnification, IP ownership, non-compete scope, auto-renewal, jurisdiction, termination penalties
   - For each risk, explain in plain language what it means and why it matters for your role

6. MISSING OR UNCLEAR ITEMS
   - List anything that is ambiguous, contradictory, or conspicuously absent
   - Note standard protections that are missing for someone in your stated role

7. RECOMMENDATIONS
   - Provide 3-5 specific points to negotiate, clarify, or flag with legal counsel before signing

OUTPUT CONSTRAINTS:
- Use plain, non-legal language throughout; define legal terms in parentheses where needed
- Format as a bulleted summary suitable for sharing with a non-legal team
- Do not provide legal advice; frame findings as observations and flag items for attorney review
- Be thorough but concise; aim for a summary that is 10-15% the length of the original document
- If the document is incomplete or partially illegible, note which sections could not be fully analyzed
