Contracko skills

AI contract management MCP server by Contracko. Manage your business contracts with Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, Grok, and other AI tools.

Contracko is AI contract management software, a contract lifecycle management (CLM) workspace for PDFs and Word files with dates, values, parties, and AI analysis on top. This plugin connects Claude and other assistants to that workspace so they can:

• Review and analyse contracts with AI. Surface risks, liabilities and obligations, compare two agreements clause by clause, and quote the sentence behind each finding.

• Import contracts with CLM, without Parser credits. Add PDF and Word contracts to your register and extract dates, parties and terms, including bulk imports.

• Process documents in bulk with Contracko Parser. The separate Parser product uses Parser credits for standalone extraction and exports. It is not needed to add contracts to your contract register.

• Set automated reminders. Add notifications to contract events so the right person hears about them in time.

• Track renewal and notice deadlines. List what ends, auto-renews, or needs notice in a given window, across the whole portfolio.

The single contracko skill teaches the assistant how to import, review, organise, and file that work, loading workflow references only when needed. The MCP server is the live connection to your workspace.

No account yet? Start a 7-day free trial (no credit card). You can also create the trial account on the OAuth screen the first time you connect the server.

Billing and allowances covers CLM and Parser.

Usage

Once connected, talk to the assistant the way you would a colleague. These are the jobs people actually run:

Security

Contracko does not train models on your contracts. Analysis inside the product runs under commercial API terms, with Zero Data Retention where we have it, and we work to get ZDR with every AI subprocessor. See Security.

Connecting this plugin is different: when Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, or another assistant calls Contracko, contract text is sent to that product. Contracko cannot control what they do with it. Turn off model training in that product before using real contracts.

Local upload policy

Local uploads and client network settings: import reference.

Install

Start with the official listing for your assistant. Each one installs Contracko and connects it in one step:

• Claude: claude.ai/directory/connectors/contracko

• ChatGPT: Contracko in the ChatGPT plugin directory

• Cursor: cursor.com/marketplace/contracko (the plugin includes the skill and the connection)

Open the Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT or Cursor section below for the details.

For every other assistant, or if your workspace blocks these listings, connect to Contracko in two steps:

1. Add the skill (this repo) so it knows how to help with contracts.

2. Add the connection so it can reach your workspace. Paste this address when asked:

https://app.contracko.com/mcp

A browser opens. Sign in or start the free trial, choose your workspace, then review and approve access. Adding skills alone does not connect the workspace. Reuse an existing Contracko connection.

The consent screen offers View contracts for questions and reviews, and Add and edit contracts for imports or changes. Requested permissions start selected. Untick Add and edit contracts unless you want imports or changes; it is offered only when your workspace role allows it. Each permission has an info button with details. When write access is requested, the screen offers a copyable prompt to add a contract in any workspace; select Add and edit contracts to copy it.

OAuth prefers Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) for HTTPS metadata-document client IDs, with Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) as fallback. This is transparent to users; connection steps stay the same.

Clients without OAuth can use a workspace-bound key created in Contracko for purpose MCP server, stored in the client's secret settings. Never paste the credential into chat, source code or logs.

Release bundles and versioning: Package maintenance.

Open the section for the product you use.

1. Open https://claude.ai/directory/connectors/contracko, choose Connect to Claude and sign in to Contracko.

2. On Pro and above you can also install the Contracko plugin (Customize, Plugins) for the single contract skill, then connect from its Connectors tab.

The directory connector works on every Claude plan, including Free. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner enables it first. Once connected on web or desktop, it also works in the Claude mobile app.

Added Contracko as a custom connector before? Remove that one, or you will see every tool twice.

Contract uploads: import reference.

On the Free plan, download contracko.zip and upload that single ZIP under Customize, Skills. Do not use GitHub's Download ZIP button. Enable the skill and start a new conversation. Updating from four skills? Upload the new ZIP and delete the old contracko-import, contracko-review and contracko-create skills.

Signed in with your Claude account? A connector added in Claude is already available here.

For the skills, install the plugin, which also registers the connection:

/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/contracko/contracko-skills.git
/plugin install contracko@contracko

Paste that full GitHub address (not a short owner/repo name). Run /mcp, then follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Using an API key without the plugin? Run this only if claude mcp list shows no Contracko entry:

claude mcp add --transport http contracko https://app.contracko.com/mcp

If you installed the older contracko-skills plugin, remove that plugin and install contracko@contracko after updating the marketplace. The GitHub repository remains contracko/contracko-skills; the MCP connection remains contracko.

Contract uploads: import reference.

1. Open https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6ac8e9b10f548191ab1ed190c3b0ccab, add Contracko from the ChatGPT plugin directory and sign in to Contracko.

2. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Workspace blocks directory apps? Add it manually instead:

1. In the workspace, go to Settings → Plugins → Import marketplace and enter contracko/contracko-skills.

2. Turn on Developer mode.

3. Go to Settings → Apps → Create and paste https://app.contracko.com/mcp.

4. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

ChatGPT has no settings file for this. Use the screens above.

Contract uploads: import reference.

1. Open grok.com/connectors.

2. Add https://app.contracko.com/mcp.

3. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

For Grok in the terminal, see Any other assistant below.

npx skills@1.7.4 add contracko/contracko-skills
codex mcp add contracko --url https://app.contracko.com/mcp
codex mcp login contracko

Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Install Contracko from the Cursor Marketplace, then follow the sign-in and consent steps.

To test the plugin locally, clone this repository into ~/.cursor/plugins/local/contracko-skills, reload Cursor, and check Customize. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Fallback, only if you cannot use the Marketplace plugin:

npx skills@1.7.4 add contracko/contracko-skills

Then add this to .cursor/mcp.json in your project (create the file if it is not there):

{ "mcpServers": { "contracko": { "url": "https://app.contracko.com/mcp" } } }

Restart Cursor if it does not pick up the connection, then follow the sign-in and consent steps.

npx skills@1.7.4 add contracko/contracko-skills

Then open the Cline panel, go to the Configure tab, and add this to the MCP settings JSON (the CLI reads ~/.cline/mcp.json):

{ "mcpServers": { "contracko": { "type": "streamableHttp", "url": "https://app.contracko.com/mcp" } } }

Follow the sign-in and consent steps. Set "type": "streamableHttp"; omitting it selects the older SSE transport.

npx skills@1.7.4 add contracko/contracko-skills

Then add this to .vscode/mcp.json in your project:

{ "servers": { "contracko": { "type": "http", "url": "https://app.contracko.com/mcp" } } }

Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

npx skills@1.7.4 add contracko/contracko-skills

Then add this to ~/.gemini/settings.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "contracko": { "httpUrl": "https://app.contracko.com/mcp" } } }

Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Use the OpenClaw setup for its native MCP commands. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

Use the Hermes setup for its native configuration and login command. Follow the sign-in and consent steps.

These clients spawn a local process instead of opening the HTTP endpoint themselves:

npx -y @contracko/mcp@1.2.5

That package only launches the hosted server at https://app.contracko.com/mcp. It is not a second MCP implementation. Skills still install with npx skills@1.7.4 add https://contracko.com.

For agents, use the hosted setup prompt. Human connection steps are above.

Skill

One skill, contracko, routes each job to a reference loaded on demand:

For 1.2.0, reinstall or update the plugin to replace the three retired skill names. Their content now lives in these references, not in separate skills.
