About contract-lifecycle-renewal-review
contract-lifecycle-renewal-review turns contract lifecycle questions into renewal operating plans with owners, gates, metrics, and recovery paths for teams handling commercial contracts. It distinguishes renewals, expansions, downgrades, cancellations, true-ups, and disputes, and calls for reconciling contract, billing, entitlement, and support records.

Details
From the project READMEContract Lifecycle Renewal Review
Use this skill to convert contract lifecycle, renewal, expansion, cancellation, true-up, amendment, procurement, billing, and entitlement questions into a concrete artifact with owners, gates, metrics, and recovery paths.
Workflow
- Identify customer segment, contract type, term dates, renewal notice window, auto-renewal rule, pricing model, entitlements, billing source of truth, legal owner, and customer-success owner.
- Read
references/contract-lifecycle-renewal-patterns.md. - Classify the account as new contract, active term, renewal-ready, renewal-risk, expansion, downgrade, cancellation, true-up, dispute, or post-term reconciliation.
- Define renewal calendar, health signals, commercial approvals, quote/order/invoice handoff, entitlement change gate, customer communication, cancellation path, and exception policy.
- Produce renewal operating plan, state machine, decision table, event schema, risk checklist, and owner-by-date action list.
When not to use
- Do not use for generic advice the base model already handles without this skill's specific artifact contract.
Guardrails
- Do not rely on surprise auto-renewal, hidden cancellation windows, or dark-pattern retention to protect revenue.
- Do not change entitlements from CRM notes alone; reconcile contract, billing, provisioning, and support records.
- Do not treat usage true-ups, price increases, expansion, and collections disputes as the same workflow.
- Do not promise renewal terms, credits, cancellations, or legal exceptions without an accountable commercial/legal owner.
