    Get Started with This Skill

    Overview

    Draft and validate a prospectus for Canadian offerings under NI 41-101 and Form 41-101F1 (general issuer). Ensures summary, risk factors, use of proceeds, business description, and financial information for SEDAR+ filing.

    Example Conversation

    You: We’re preparing a prospectus for our offering. Can you draft the main sections—summary, risk factors, use of proceeds, business description, and financial information—and validate the draft for Form 41-101F1?

    Agent: I’ll draft the prospectus per Form 41-101F1 with those sections and run validate_ni41101_prospectus on the draft.

    Agent: Created prospectus-draft.md. Running validate_ni41101_prospectus

    Agent: Check PASS — the document includes summary, risk factors, use of proceeds, business description, and financial information, with no placeholders. You can file on SEDAR+ after final review and regulatory clearance.

    What the Tools Validate

    validate_ni41101_prospectus checks the prospectus draft for:

    • Summary or overview — Offer summary or highlights as required by Form 41-101F1.
    • Risk factors — Material risks specific to the issuer and the offering.
    • Use of proceeds — How the issuer will use the proceeds of the offering.
    • Business description — Nature of the business, operations, and strategy.
    • Financial information — Financial statements or selected financial data as prescribed.
    • Placeholders — Flags [TODO], TBD, or similar to replace before SEDAR+ filing.

    Output: PASS when there are no errors or warnings; otherwise FAIL with a findings list. Fix flagged items and re-run until the check passes.
