⚠️ Important Notes

1. Legal Disclaimer - Review suggestions provided by this skill are for reference only - Does not constitute formal legal advice - Important contracts should be reviewed by a qualified attorney - Legal Document Review Agent suggestions do not replace professional legal counsel

2. File Safety - Original file will be backed up before modification - New version will be generated without overwriting the original - Client should confirm modifications independently

3. Format Preservation - Original formatting and layout will be maintained as much as possible - Some complex formatting may be affected - Manual review recommended after modification

4. Language Support - Primary support: Chinese contracts - Also supports: English contracts - Other languages: Can be reviewed but recommendations may be less specific

5. Legal Agent Limitations - Legal Document Review Agent can only analyze text, cannot directly modify Word files - AI assistant must perform file modifications based on Agent's suggestions - Agent review takes some time (typically 1-2 minutes)
