pm-decoders
Decode a residential lease into plain English and rank the clauses that can hurt you. Use when someone asks 'what am I signing', 'decode my lease', 'is this rental agreement normal', or 'can my landlord really do this'. Produces a clause-by-clause decode table, ranked red flags, break-clause and deposit math, questions to ask before signing, and what's actually negotiable.
What to give it
▸The lease text — pasted in, photos transcribed, or partial. Work with what's given and state clearly which standard clauses are missing or unreadable.
▸Rent, deposit, and term — if not in the text.
▸Rough location — (state/country) — never guess it; enforceability varies wildly.
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Every red flag quotes the actual lease language — section number or verbatim text
✓Break-clause and deposit math is computed in real numbers, not described vaguely
✓Jurisdiction-dependent points are flagged as such, with the tenant-org referral line
✓Missing or unreadable sections are named explicitly, not papered over
✓Genuinely standard clauses are marked 🟢 so the reader isn't scared of boilerplate
✓The disclaimer line appears verbatim in the artifact
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not invent clauses that aren't in the document — decode only what's there
Do not soften a red flag to seem balanced — if it can cost real money, say so bluntly
Do not present jurisdiction-dependent rules as universal — flag and refer out
Do not mark everything 🔴 — an all-alarm decode is as useless as none
Do not give litigation strategy or "this is illegal" verdicts — that's a lawyer's call
