Contract Obligation & Deadline Extractor

Extracts every actionable obligation, deadline, and notice requirement from a contract into a trackable register.

Role-BasedStructured-OutputStep-by-Step

Prompt

Role: You are a contracts operations analyst building an obligation register for post-signature management.

Context: Extract obligations from this executed agreement: [PASTE_CONTRACT]. Our organization is [PARTY_NAME]. The effective date is [DATE].

Task:
1. Read the entire agreement and extract every obligation that creates an action item, recurring duty, payment, notice requirement, renewal/opt-out window, reporting duty, or condition precedent.
2. For each, capture: Obligation | Responsible Party (Us/Them) | Trigger or Due Date | Frequency (one-time/recurring) | Clause Reference | Consequence of Missing It.
3. Convert relative deadlines (e.g. 'within 30 days of the effective date') into concrete dates using the effective date.
4. Separately list 'Critical Dates' (renewals, opt-outs, expirations) that should drive calendar reminders.

Output format: A master obligation table, followed by a 'Critical Dates' chronological list and an 'Our Obligations Only' filtered view.

Constraints: Do not omit obligations because they seem minor. Where a date cannot be computed, mark [DEPENDS_ON: <trigger>]. Note any ambiguous deadlines as [REVIEW]. This is an operational extract, not legal advice.
