Contract Skill — A ready-to-use MOVA HITL workflow. Requires the openclaw-mova plugin.

MOVA Contract Generation

Generate legal document drafts from structured templates — with AI-populated sections, section-by-section human review gates, and a complete chain of custody from template selection to final signed document.

What it does

1. 1. Template selection — choose document type: NDA, service agreement, supply contract, or SLA
2. Data ingestion — parties, dates, jurisdiction, pricing, special conditions
3. Draft generation — AI populates each section from the selected template with provided parameters
4. Section-by-section human gates — legal reviewer approves, edits, or rejects each section individually
5. Final sign-off — complete document finalized, stored in document repository with full audit trail

Every draft version, edit, reviewer identity, and approval timestamp is recorded in the MOVA audit trail — providing a complete chain of custody for legal and compliance review.

Requirements

Plugin: MOVA OpenClaw plugin must be installed in your OpenClaw workspace.

Data flows:

• - Document parameters + party data → api.mova-lab.eu (MOVA platform, EU-hosted)
• Template ID → legal template repository (read-only, fetches base structure)
• Finalized document → document storage connector (written on completion)
• Audit journal → MOVA R2 storage, signed
• No data sent to third parties beyond the above

Demo

Step 1 — NDA generation request: Vortex Analytics ↔ NordStern Capital, German law

Step 2 — AI draft generated: 7 sections with full text, risk score 0.2

Step 3 — Section approved, audit receipt with signed decision log

Quick start

Say "generate an NDA between Acme Corp and Beta GmbH, governed by German law":

CODEBLOCK0

The agent generates each section from the NDA template, presents it for review, and waits for your decision before moving to the next section.

Why contract execution matters

• - Section-level accountability — each reviewer decision (approve / edit / reject) is individually timestamped and signed
• Full draft lineage — the audit trail shows exactly which AI-generated text was accepted, what was edited, and by whom
• Immutable chain of custody — when a counterparty disputes a clause, the system shows the exact approved version and who signed off
• EU AI Act ready — AI-generated legal documents require documented human oversight at each material clause

What the user receives

Output	Description
Document type	NDA / serviceagreement / supplycontract / SLA
Parties

Party A and Party B names | | Section count | Total sections in the document | | Per-section draft | AI-generated text ready for review | | Reviewer decision | approvesection / editsection / reject_section / escalate | | Edit trail | Every accepted edit captured with original and revised text | | Document ID | Final stored document reference | | Audit receipt ID | Permanent signed record of all section approvals | | Compact journal | Full event log: generate → per-section decisions → finalize |

When to trigger

Activate when the user:

• - Asks to generate, create, or draft a contract, NDA, or legal document
• Provides party names and asks to prepare a document from a template
• Says "create an NDA", "draft a service agreement", "generate a supply contract", "prepare an SLA"

Before starting, confirm: "Generate [DOCTYPE] for [PARTYA] ↔ [PARTY_B] via MOVA?"

If document type, party names, or jurisdiction is missing — ask once.

Step 1 — Submit document parameters

Call tool mova_hitl_start_contract_gen with:

• - doc_type: nda / serviceagreement / supplycontract / sla
• INLINECODE4: full legal name of party A
• INLINECODE5: full legal name of party B
• INLINECODE6: governing law jurisdiction (ISO country code or US state, e.g. DE, US-NY, EU)
• INLINECODE7: ISO date (e.g. 2026-04-01)
• INLINECODE8: optional object with key terms (pricing, duration, notice period, confidentiality scope)
• INLINECODE9: optional — use a specific template version

Step 2 — Review sections one by one

For each section, if status = "waiting_human" — show the draft:

CODEBLOCK1

Ask the legal reviewer to choose:

Option	Description
INLINECODE11	Approve this section as written
INLINECODE12

Accept with edits (provide revised text in reason) |
| reject_section | Reject and request AI redraft |
| escalate | Escalate to senior legal counsel |

Call tool mova_hitl_decide with:

• - contract_id: from the response above — this is INLINECODE17
• INLINECODE18: chosen decision
• INLINECODE19: reviewer note or full edited text (for edit_section)

Repeat for each section until all are approved and status = "completed".

Step 3 — Show audit receipt and final document

Call tool mova_hitl_audit with contract_id to retrieve the final document details.
Call tool mova_hitl_audit_compact with contract_id for the full signed approval chain.

Connect your real document systems

By default MOVA uses a sandbox mock. To use your real template and storage infrastructure, call mova_list_connectors with keyword: "document".

Relevant connectors:

Connector ID	What it covers
INLINECODE27	Legal document template library
INLINECODE28

Final document storage and versioning |

Call mova_register_connector with connector_id, endpoint, optional auth_header and auth_value.

Rules

• - NEVER make HTTP requests manually
• NEVER fabricate legal text outside the MOVA workflow or provide legal advice
• Use MOVA plugin tools directly — do NOT use exec or shell
• CONTRACTID is ctr-ctg-xxxxxxxx from the movahitlstartcontract_gen response
• Human approval is required for every section — never auto-finalize a document
