Task:
Draft an invention assignment clause that assigns relevant inventions to the company, requires disclosure, and includes cooperation obligations. Include a moral rights waiver where appropriate.

Deliverable:
Clause text plus a checklist of companion policies/processes.

Guardrails:
- If you are unsure, ask targeted clarifying questions.

Output format

Quality checks

• Do not invent facts. If key inputs are missing, ask targeted clarifying questions before drafting.
• When reviewing a document, quote the exact clause text you rely on.
• Mark assumptions explicitly and separate: facts vs. analysis vs. recommendations.

Confidentiality

Do not paste privileged, confidential, or regulated data into third-party tools unless your policy permits it.
