+## Trust Boundary & Shell Command Safety
+
+Before installing, understand what the skill can and cannot enforce, and where sensitive data flows.
+
+**This skill is instruction-only.** It ships no code and executes nothing by itself. When the Local CLI path is used, the agent executes shell commands (`open-agreements fill ... -o <output-name>.docx`) whose parameters come from user-supplied values. The skill cannot enforce sanitization itself — only the agent running the instructions can.
+
+### Shell command parameter sanitization (mandatory for Local CLI path)
+
+If you use the Local CLI path, the agent must sanitize every parameter that reaches a shell command. The output filename is the highest-risk parameter because it flows into the `-o` flag and can contain path traversal (`../../`) or shell metacharacters.
+
+Hard rules the agent MUST follow when using Local CLI:
+
+1. **Output filename pattern**: match `^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,64}\.docx$` — alphanumeric, underscore, hyphen only, no path separators, no dots except the single `.docx` suffix. Reject anything else.
+2. **No shell metacharacters** in any field value written to the temp JSON file: reject backtick, `$(`, semicolon, pipe, ampersand, and redirects.
+3. **Use a per-run secure temp file** created with `mktemp /tmp/oa-values.XXXXXX.json`, then set `chmod 600` before writing values. Do not reuse a shared filename.
+4. **Heredoc quoting**: when writing field values, use a quoted heredoc (`<< 'FIELDS'`) so shell variable expansion does not apply.
+5. **Reject control characters** in all values (bytes `< 0x20` except tab and newline, plus `0x7F`).
+6. **Clean up with a trap** so the temp file is removed even if the fill command fails.
+
+The execution workflow at [template-filling-execution.md](./template-filling-execution.md) documents the same rules. This section exists so a scanner reading `SKILL.md` alone can verify that the skill acknowledges shell safety.
+
+### Remote MCP path: data disclosure to a hosted third-party service
+
+**The Remote MCP path sends NDA field values — including company names, purposes, dates, and other confidential business details — to a hosted Open Agreements endpoint on `openagreements.org` for server-side rendering.** Before using Remote MCP for a real NDA, the agent MUST:
+
+1. Tell the user explicitly that confidential content will be transmitted to a hosted third-party server from the user's perspective.
+2. Get explicit informed consent from the user to proceed.
+3. Offer the Local CLI path as a privacy-preserving alternative — the CLI fills templates locally with no third-party template-rendering service involved.
+
+**Recommendation for highly sensitive NDAs:** use the Local CLI path with a pinned version (`npm install -g open-agreements@0.7.5`, then `open-agreements fill ...` directly, not `npx`). Template fill is fully local.
+
+### Before installing or running
+
+The scanner has flagged this skill as Suspicious due to the shell execution path and the hosted Remote MCP disclosure. Review the items below before use:
+
+1. **Use Remote MCP only with informed consent.** Filling a real NDA transmits its contents to a hosted Open Agreements endpoint.
+2. **If using Local CLI, enforce the output-filename and field-value sanitization rules above.** The skill cannot enforce these; the agent or the user must.
+3. **Create a unique temp file with restricted permissions** (`mktemp` + `chmod 600`) instead of using a shared `/tmp` filename.
+4. **Pin the CLI version** (`npm install -g open-agreements@0.7.5`, not `@latest`) to avoid surprises from unpinned upstream changes.
+5. **Review the template before signing.** This tool does not provide legal advice. Have an attorney review non-standard NDAs or edits outside the schema.
+6. **Do not redistribute modified templates** when the underlying license forbids derivative redistribution.

+# non-compete-contract-explainer
+
+Explain how a given jurisdiction treats non-competes and other restrictive
+covenants, using bundled, source-cited practice notes. This skill explains **what
+the law says** — it does not give legal advice or tell a user whether their own
+contract is enforceable.
+
+## Not legal advice
+
+- This skill provides **general legal information only**. It is **not legal
+  advice**, does not create an attorney-client relationship, and is not a
+  substitute for a licensed attorney in the relevant jurisdiction.
+- Every bundled note is a **snapshot** with a `snapshotAsOf` date. Laws change.
+  Always point the user to the canonical URL to confirm currency.
+- Do **not** render a verdict on the user's own agreement (see the
+  personal-question rule below).
+
+## When to use
+
+Use this skill when the user wants to understand restrictive-covenant law, e.g.:
+- "Are non-competes enforceable in **\<state\>**?"
+- "What changed with **\<state\>**'s new non-compete law?"
+- "Can a court narrow / blue-pencil an overbroad non-compete in **\<state\>**?"
+- "Does the ban reach independent contractors?" / "What about non-solicits or
+  garden leave?"
+- "Is my non-compete enforceable?" — answer with the **factors** the
+  jurisdiction applies, then apply the personal-question rule.
+
+## How to answer
+
+1. **Resolve the jurisdiction.** Map the user's state/country to a slug using
+   `manifest.json` (at this skill's root). If they don't name one, ask which
+   jurisdiction.
+2. **Read the one matching file.** Open `content/<slug>.md` — and only that file.
+   Do not load other jurisdictions. (References stay one level deep.)
+3. **Lead with the snapshot date.** State the note's `snapshotAsOf` and
+   `lastReviewed`, and surface any baked `> [!WARNING]` staleness block verbatim.
+4. **Answer from the note.** Use the **At a glance** table for the bottom line,
+   then the question sections for detail. **Cite the footnoted sources**
+   (statutes, cases, commentary) when you state a rule. Stay neutral.
+5. **Offer an optional refresh.** If currency matters, offer to fetch the note's
+   `canonicalUrl` with the host agent's web access to check for changes. **Ask
+   each time**, and **never send the user's facts or contract text upstream** —
+   fetch only the fixed canonical URL.
+6. **If a jurisdiction isn't covered**, say so plainly and point to the canonical
+   site index rather than guessing.
+
+## Personal-question rule
+
+When a user asks whether **their own** non-compete is enforceable, or whether
+they can leave / join a competitor:
+- Explain the **factors** the jurisdiction weighs (enforceability bucket, court
+  narrowing, consideration, duration/geography, contractor reach, etc.).
+- **Do not** give a yes/no verdict on their specific agreement, and never advise
+  a go/no-go decision on quitting or joining a competitor.
+- Direct them to a licensed attorney in that jurisdiction for advice on their
+  facts.
+
+## Coverage
+
+The bundled jurisdictions are listed in `manifest.json` at this skill's root
+(each entry has
+`slug`, `jurisdiction`, `countryCode`, `snapshotAsOf`, `lastReviewed`, and a
+`stale` flag). Read that file to enumerate what's available before answering a
+"which states do you cover?" question.
+
+## See also
+
+- When the user wants to *draft* hiring paperwork (offer letter, IP assignment,
+  confidentiality) rather than understand the law, point them to the
+  OpenAgreements employment skill. To avoid look-alike skills from other
+  publishers, identify it by its full package path, not the bare name:
+  `open-agreements/open-agreements@employment-contract`
+  (install: `npx skills add open-agreements/open-agreements`).
+- For a workflow-ready covenant once the user understands the rules, the same
+  OpenAgreements package publishes restrictive-covenant templates (e.g. Wyoming,
+  Florida).

+- This skill does **not** download or execute network code. The only network
+  action is the optional, user-approved canonical-URL refresh in step 5.

+# Non-Competes in Wyoming[^about]
+
+A question-by-question summary of Wyoming's 2025 non-compete statute, recent Wyoming case law, and state-specific commentary on restrictive covenants.
+
+
+## At a glance
+
+| Question | Wyoming |
+| --- | --- |
+| **Are non-competes enforceable?** | Banned |
+| **Bottom line** | For contracts entered into on or after July 1, 2025, Wyoming voids most employee non-competes that restrict the right to receive compensation for labor, allowing only four narrow statutory exceptions; pre-2025 covenants remain under demanding common law. |
+| **Main law or case** | Wyo. Stat. § 1-23-108 (2025) (SF 107) |
+| **Main exceptions** | Four carve-outs: sale-of-business; trade-secret protection; tenure-capped relocation/education/training repayment; executive and management personnel. Separate physician-to-physician practice ban. |
+| **When the ban took effect** | July 1, 2025 (prospective only; signed Mar 19, 2025) |
+| **Can a court narrow it?** | No |
+| **Applies to contractors?** | Yes |
+| **Restriction extended during a breach?** | Not addressed |
+| **Maximum length set by law** | No statutory limit |
+
+## Are employee non-compete agreements enforceable in Wyoming? {#employee-noncompetes}
+
+**Short answer.** For contracts entered into on or after July 1, 2025, usually no. Wyo. Stat. § 1-23-108(a) voids most labor non-competes[^wyo-1-23-voids-labor-noncompetes] unless the covenant fits a statutory exception.
+
+The statute covers covenants that restrict the right of any person to receive compensation for skilled or unskilled labor. State-specific law-firm commentary treats the 2025 law as a broad restriction rather than a narrow drafting adjustment [^ogletree-broad-ban][^faegre-broad-restriction][^littler-broad-ban][^fisher-shift-from-permissive][^holland-uphill-battle].
+
+The practical reading is that a standard post-employment employee non-compete should not be reused in Wyoming after the effective date unless it is deliberately drafted into one of the remaining statutory categories.
+
+## Does Wyoming's non-compete ban apply to independent contractors? {#independent-contractors}
+
+**Short answer.** Likely yes under the dominant 2025 law-firm commentary, but that is still an interpretation rather than a Wyoming appellate holding.
+
+The reason is the statutory phrase "any person"[^wyo-1-23-any-person]. State-specific law-firm commentary reads that wording broadly enough to reach independent contractors, not only W-2 employees [^littler-any-status][^faegre-includes-contractors][^fisher-colorado-any-person]. That same broad phrasing closely mirrors Colorado's void-for-compensation rule, which is why commentary points to Colorado as the analogue. *See our companion note on [whether Colorado employee non-competes are enforceable](/legal/non-compete/colorado#enforceability).*
+
+That is a strong drafting assumption for Wyoming templates, but a careful note should still say that Wyoming courts have not yet issued a controlling appellate decision on the contractor question.
+
+## What law governs Wyoming non-compete agreements signed before July 1, 2025? {#pre-2025-agreements}
+
+**Short answer.** Older agreements continue to be judged under Wyoming common law, because the 2025 act does not alter earlier contracts[^sf107-savings-clause].
+
+That does not mean older Wyoming non-competes are easy to enforce. Wyoming common law uses traditional enforceability elements[^malave-five-elements]: the covenant must be written, part of an employment contract, supported by reasonable consideration, reasonable in duration and geography, and not against public policy.
+
+Wyoming cases also strictly construe non-competes[^brown-strict-construction] and put the burden on the employer to prove special circumstances that make the restraint reasonably necessary. For a post-hire covenant, continued employment alone is not enough consideration[^brown-separate-consideration].
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> No published Wyoming authority addresses tolling a non-compete during a breach. Wyoming strictly construes restrictive covenants and puts the burden on the employer to justify the restraint [^brown-strict-construction]. A tolling provision adds duration that faces the same reasonableness scrutiny as the original term — without judicial willingness to trim — so the realistic downside is voiding the covenant, not narrowing it.
+
+## Can Wyoming courts blue-pencil or narrow an overbroad non-compete? {#court-narrowing}
+
+**Short answer.** No. The Wyoming Supreme Court rejected blue-penciling[^hassler-no-blue-pencil] for non-compete agreements.
+
+The court held that the entire agreement was void because the duration and geographic terms were unreasonable. That makes overbreadth more expensive in Wyoming than in states where courts may trim an unreasonable covenant down to an enforceable scope.
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> Do not assume a Wyoming court will rescue an overbroad covenant by narrowing it later. That caution applies to legacy agreements and to new agreements drafted inside a statutory exception [^holland-blue-pencil-warning].
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> Tie duration and geography to specific business needs and document the reasonableness analysis at drafting time. Wyoming's no-blue-pencil rule means an overbroad covenant is voided whole rather than trimmed [^hassler-no-blue-pencil], so the upside of an aggressive scope is small relative to the risk of losing the covenant entirely.
+
+## What non-compete restrictions are still allowed in Wyoming after July 1, 2025? {#available-restrictions}
+
+**Short answer.** Four categories remain in play: sale-of-business covenants, trade-secret covenants, capped repayment provisions, and covenants with executive and management personnel and their professional staff.
+
+The four statutory carveouts[^wyo-1-23-four-carveouts] are listed in Wyo. Stat. § 1-23-108(a). The repayment carveout is not a blank check; it is capped by the employee's tenure, with lower recovery percentages as service length increases.
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> A statutory exception is not a license for loose drafting. Employer-side law-firm commentary still points to reasonable scope and legitimate business fit [^holland-options-remain]; law-firm commentary also treats the breadth of the trade-secret exception as an open question [^littler-trade-secret-unsettled].
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> The trade-secret exception covers covenants only to the extent they protect information that meets Wyoming's statutory trade-secret definition. Tie the contractual definition of protected information to that statutory bar and document why each category meets it, since how broadly Wyoming courts read the carveout remains an open question [^littler-trade-secret-unsettled].
+
+## Are customer non-solicitation agreements enforceable in Wyoming? {#customer-nonsolicits}
+
+**Short answer.** Unclear. The safer Wyoming-specific answer is not *always valid* or *always void*; it depends on whether the covenant functions like a prohibited non-compete.
+
+Brownstein takes the employer-friendly view that customer non-solicitation covenants remain intact [^brownstein-nonsolicits-unaffected]. Fisher Phillips warns that Wyoming courts still must decide whether customer non-solicits are covered covenants not to compete under the new text [^fisher-classification-question].
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> For drafting, separate a narrow customer-relationship restriction from language that prevents the person from earning compensation in a field, territory, or role. The closer the clause gets to a work ban, the more non-compete risk it carries [^fisher-classification-question].
+
+## Are employee non-solicitation agreements enforceable in Wyoming? {#employee-nonsolicits}
+
+**Short answer.** Not clearly. Wyoming's statute does not create an express employee non-solicit exception.
+
+Law-firm commentary says the omission leaves the issue unclear [^littler-no-nonsolicit-carveout]. Other law-firm commentary groups employee non-solicits with adjacent restraints that Wyoming courts may eventually have to classify [^fisher-adjacent-restraints].
+
+The practical drafting approach is to treat employee non-solicits as unsettled if they work as a de facto restriction on the departing person's ability to perform skilled or unskilled labor.
+
+## Are confidentiality agreements or NDAs enforceable if they function like a Wyoming non-compete? {#confidentiality-ndas}
+
+**Short answer.** Ordinary confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements are more likely to remain enforceable, but broad clauses that operate like a work restriction are riskier.
+
+Brownstein says the statute does not affect nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements [^brownstein-nda-unaffected]. Fisher Phillips warns that courts still may need to decide whether broad confidentiality provisions are really prohibited non-compete covenants under another name [^fisher-nda-question].
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> Use confidentiality clauses to protect confidential information, not to prevent someone from working in a role, industry, or geography. The broader the definition of protected information, the more the clause begins to look like a non-compete substitute [^fisher-nda-question].
+
+## Are anti-moonlighting clauses risky under Wyoming's non-compete law? {#anti-moonlighting}
+
+**Short answer.** Potentially. A narrow conflict-of-interest rule is different from a broad ban on outside work, but the statutory text creates risk for clauses that restrict compensation for labor.
+
+The statute focuses on covenants that restrict compensation for skilled or unskilled labor [^wyo-1-23-compensation-focus]. Fisher Phillips specifically flags anti-moonlighting provisions as one of the adjacent covenant types Wyoming courts may need to classify under the 2025 statute [^fisher-anti-moonlighting].
+
+This is useful to keep separate from non-competes because many employers do not call those clauses *non-competes*, even when they restrict outside work in a way that starts to resemble one.
+
+## Can a Wyoming non-compete prevent a physician from practicing medicine? {#physicians}
+
+**Short answer.** For physician-to-physician agreements covered by the statutory text, no. Wyoming separately voids a physician non-compete that restricts the right to practice medicine after termination.
+
+The statute also allows a departing physician to share continuing practice and new professional contact information with rare-disorder patients, without liability to the prior counterparty [^wyo-1-23-physician-bc].
+
+The harder question is the phrase "between physicians"[^wyo-1-23-between-physicians]. Commentary flags that wording as an open statutory question for contracts with hospitals or other non-physician entities [^littler-between-physicians][^holland-between-physicians]. The careful statement is that Wyoming clearly voids physician-to-physician practice restraints and leaves the outer scope of physician-employer application less certain.
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> Wyoming voids physician-to-physician practice restraints and protects the departing physician's right to share continuing-practice information with rare-disorder patients [^wyo-1-23-physician-bc]. Mirror that statutory protection in the clause itself, and avoid relying on the broader exec/management exception for physicians employed by non-physician entities — the "between physicians"[^wyo-1-23-between-physicians] language leaves that scope unsettled [^holland-between-physicians].
+
+## Can Wyoming employers bind executives or managers to non-competes under the statutory exception? {#executives-managers}
+
+**Short answer.** Possibly, but the exception is not self-defining. Wyoming allows covenants with executive and management personnel and their professional staff, but the statute does not define those terms.
+
+The statutory exception covers executive and management personnel[^wyo-1-23-exec-staff]. Law-firm commentary flags the drafting gap [^faegre-exec-undefined], and other law-firm commentary points to Colorado cases as possible nonbinding guidance because Colorado once used similar language [^fisher-actual-duties][^holland-colorado-analogy].
+
+Those comparisons point toward function over title: supervision, autonomy, hiring or firing authority, and a meaningful role in implementing management functions. A *manager* label alone is not the safest basis for the Wyoming exception.
+
+## Can Wyoming employers recover relocation, education, or training expenses from departing employees? {#repayment-clauses}
+
+**Short answer.** Yes, but only within the statutory schedule. The longer the employee stays, the less the employer can recover.
+
+Wyoming permits recovery of up to 100% of relocation, education, and training expenses if the employee served less than two years; up to 66% after at least two but less than three years; and up to 33% after at least three but less than four years. The repayment schedule[^wyo-1-23-repayment-schedule] does not provide an additional recovery tier after that.
+
+> [!CAUTION]
+> **Drafting note.**
+>
+> Draft this as an expense-recovery provision, not as a disguised penalty for competition. Tie the amount to actual relocation, education, or training expense and the statutory percentages [^ogletree-repayment-tier][^faegre-repayment-tier].
+
+## Do employers need to update Wyoming restrictive covenant templates after July 1, 2025? {#template-updates}
+
+**Short answer.** Yes. The new statute turns template rollover into a legal risk point, especially if an older covenant might have remained enforceable under common law.
+
+Wyoming-specific commentary treats SF 107 as a major narrowing of employer practice, not a minor drafting tweak [^ogletree-review-revise]. Employers should review non-compete templates, offer letters, incentive agreements, physician agreements, non-solicits, NDAs, anti-moonlighting clauses, and repayment provisions together.
+
+Commentary specifically warns employers to evaluate routine replacement or updating programs because a new agreement after July 1, 2025 may replace something that was enforceable with something void [^littler-rollover-warning]. Where a grandfathered covenant needs changes, commentary suggests amending or renewing it rather than signing a fresh agreement, when the existing terms allow that, so the covenant is not treated as newly entered into after the effective date [^holland-amend-not-replace]. The common-law cases also mean that even old-law Wyoming covenants required careful drafting [^brown-baseline][^malave-baseline][^hassler-baseline].
+
+## What recent developments changed Wyoming non-compete law? {#recent-developments}
+
+**Short answer.** Wyoming moved from a mostly common-law regime to a broad prospective statutory ban with enumerated exceptions.
+
+**March 19, 2025:** Governor Mark Gordon signed Senate File 107, creating Wyo. Stat. § 1-23-108 and adding physician-specific rules [^ogletree-effective-date].
+
+**July 1, 2025:** The new statute took effect for contracts entered into on or after that date. Earlier contracts were not altered, amended, or impaired by the act [^sf107-effective-date].
+
+**2021–2022 backdrop:** Wyoming's common-law baseline was already demanding because of strict construction, consideration, and no-blue-pencil cases [^brown-prima-facie][^malave-common-law-elements][^hassler-void-public-policy].
