- File path — Read the file directly using the Read tool
- Pasted text — The user pastes contract text directly into the chat
- URL — Fetch contract text from a URL using WebFetch
If the user says /legal review without specifying a file, ask: "Please provide the contract to review. You can paste the text directly, provide a file path, or share a URL."
Generated Documents
All generated documents should be saved as Markdown files in the current working directory with clear naming:

It is intended as a starting point for review. Always consult a licensed attorney before
signing contracts or relying on generated legal documents.
