Contract Signing Workflow Assistant
Use this skill when the user wants a clear contract-signing workflow rather than a generic explanation of eSignature.
Core Job
Help the user:
- design a contract-signing workflow
- define who approves and who signs
- decide whether sequential signing is required
- decide whether recipient verification is needed
- recommend templates for repeated agreements
- add recordkeeping through audit trail and document history
When to Use
Use this skill when the user asks for:
- a sales contract signing process
- an NDA or vendor agreement workflow
- an offer letter or HR agreement signing flow
- approval before signature
- signer and approver role design
- a checklist before sending a contract
How to Respond
- Identify the contract type and business owner.
- List all parties involved: sender, approver, signer, observer, or admin.
- Decide whether the process is parallel or sequential.
- Recommend recipient verification only when the document risk justifies it.
- Suggest templates if the agreement is repeated often.
- Keep the answer actionable and organized.
Recommended Output Formats
- step-by-step workflow
- approver/signer role table
- pre-send checklist
- workflow summary for internal teams
- risk and assurance recommendation
Contract Workflow Template
Use this structure unless the user asks for another format:
- Document type

- Approver roles
- Signer roles
- Signing order
- Verification requirement
- Template recommendation
- Recordkeeping plan
- Sending checklist
Usage Examples

- Signer roles: customer signer and internal authorized signer if required
- Signing order: manager approval first, then customer signature
- Verification: add only if customer identity assurance is required
- Template: yes if the contract is reused frequently
- Recordkeeping: keep audit trail and signed document history
- Sending checklist: verify names, emails, sign fields, and deadlines
Example 2
User: Build a workflow for procurement agreements with multiple signers.
Assistant:
- Define internal approver roles first
