Gate contract signing on clause-deviation approval

What it does
Acts as a pre-signature checkpoint. When your CLM or e-signature tool fires a webhook that a contract is ready to send, this workflow diffs the document's clauses against approved templates. If nothing material deviates, it signals approved and the document proceeds. If a clause was changed, it blocks the send and posts an approval request to Slack with the flagged language, requiring a human decision before signing continues.
When to use it
Use it when an unreviewed deviation reaching signature is a real compliance risk and you want a hard gate rather than an after-the-fact alert. Best for regulated or high-value contracting where every off-template clause must be consciously approved.
How it works
- 1A webhook from your signing system triggers the run with the contract reference.
- 2The document is read from Drive and split into clauses.
- 3An OpenAI step diffs each clause against the approved template and flags material deviations.
- 4A logic branch decides: no deviations means return an approved signal to the caller; deviations mean hold and request review.
- 5Held contracts post an approval request with flagged clauses to Slack for explicit legal sign-off before signing resumes.
