# Closing Checklist
## Purpose
Build and maintain a structured transaction closing checklist that captures every condition precedent, closing deliverable, and pre-closing covenant drawn from the transaction agreement. The skill can initialize a checklist from the agreement, fold in items surfaced by diligence, update item status, and produce a blocking and critical-path summary. It produces draft legal work product for attorney review — not legal advice and not a closing certification.
## Use When
- A deal team needs to initialize a closing checklist from a purchase agreement, merger agreement, or financing document.
- Diligence findings have surfaced pre-closing action items — consents, regulatory filings, board or shareholder approvals, releases, or escrow mechanics — that must be tracked to closing.
- The team needs to update the status of existing checklist items and surface what remains open.
- A deal is approaching signing or closing and the team wants a consolidated view of open conditions and deliverables for attorney review.
