Corporate & M&A Claude Skills
Skills for corporate development and transactions — diligence checklists, board materials, and deal documentation.
- Board MinutesDrafts board or committee meeting minutes in your house format. Auto-detects upcoming board and committee meetings from your calendar, asks for the agenda and any slides or pre-read materials, and produces a complete draft in the format learned from your seed minutes. Also handles written consents in lieu of meetings. Trigger: "board minutes", "draft minutes", "upcoming board meeting", "committee minutes", "written consent", or calendar detection of an upcoming board or committee event.
- Closing ChecklistWhat's blocking close — maintain the closing checklist with status, critical path, and days to close. Self-updating: ingests new items from diligence findings and schedule builds, tracks status, surfaces what's blocking. Use when user says "closing checklist", "what's left to close", "checklist status", "add to the checklist", or on a scheduled status pull.
- Deal Team SummaryAggregate diligence findings into a deal team briefing at the right altitude for the audience — exec summary for leadership, working summary for the team. Use when user says "brief the deal team", "what's the state of diligence", "summarize findings for [audience]", "deal update", or on the briefing cadence.
- Diligence Issue ExtractionRead VDR documents and extract issues per house categories and materiality thresholds, producing findings in house memo format. Use when user says "review the data room", "extract issues from [folder]", "diligence review", "what's in the VDR", or points at VDR documents.
- Entity ComplianceEntity compliance tracker — initialize, report upcoming deadlines, update status, run health audit, export to CSV. Maintains a compliance-tracker.yaml built from the entity table, calculates filing deadlines by entity and jurisdiction, and surfaces what's due in the next 30/60/90 days. Use when user says "entity compliance", "filing deadlines", "annual reports due", "entity tracker", "what filings are due", "entity health", or "good standing".
- Integration ManagementPost-closing M&A integration tracker — phased workplan, consent tracking, contract assignment at scale, weekly status reports. Initializes from whatever deal artifacts are available (purchase agreement, deal summary, closing checklist) and connects to deal-context.md and closing-checklist.yaml from the M&A cold-start. Use when user says "integration", "post-close", "post-closing", "consents outstanding", "contract assignment", "integration status", or "what's left on the deal".
- Material Contract ScheduleBuild the material contracts disclosure schedule from diligence findings, applying the purchase agreement's Material Contract definition and formatting per the agreement's schedule format. Use when user says "build the contracts schedule", "disclosure schedule", "schedule 3.X", "material contracts list", or when drafting disclosure schedules.
- Tabular ReviewTabular review — one row per document, one column per data point, every cell cited to source. Built for M&A diligence ("review these 200 target contracts for change-of-control, assignment, and MAC clauses") but works for any batch review that needs a spreadsheet out the other end. Use when user says "tabular review", "review grid", "build a grid", "extract these fields from these contracts", "review these documents for X, Y, Z", "give me a spreadsheet of", "batch review", or points at a folder of documents and asks to compare them.
- Written ConsentDraft a unanimous written consent of the board or a committee in house format, with precedent search from the consents repository. Handles multi-resolution consents, director conflict flags, state-law notice requirements, and signatory tracking, with a built-in scope warning for major one-off actions. Use when user says "written consent", "unanimous consent", "board consent", "consent in lieu", "UWC", or describes an action needing board approval without a meeting.
