She shows you each change and waits for your yes first, and nothing is emailed until you agree. When a contract has waited 5 days for a signature, Fai suggests a reminder on Today. Your own AI assistant can list and read the contracts and send one for signature over the MCP server, after your approval in your MCP client. ### In your dashboard, with Fai ``` Draft the contract for Nova Twins at from their accepted offer and tell me what is missing before I send it ``` ### From your own assistant, over MCP Connect your assistant to [our MCP server](https://www.ticketfairy.com/mcp-server) and ask it: The copied MCP configuration includes `--read-only`. Remove `--read-only` only when you want your assistant to make changes. Your assistant makes routine changes when you ask, and checks with you before a destructive action if your client supports that. If your client cannot ask, make the change in your dashboard. ``` Find my event , list its contracts, and ask me before you send any of them for signature ``` ## From your terminal Install the CLI from [our CLI page](https://www.ticketfairy.com/cli), sign in with `ticketfairy auth login`, and choose the brand you are working on with `ticketfairy brand use `. `ticketfairy brand list` and `ticketfairy event list` show the IDs the other commands use.

Select **Send several** in Contracts, choose performers and speakers, traders or suppliers and one template, check every contract, then send them all in one approval, as in the guide to sending contracts to many people at once. **Where do I set my usual contract terms?** Open Event Operations, then Contracts, and use Your contract templates. Add a starter template for a performance, speaker, trader, supplier or crew agreement and change the wording to match how you work. New contracts start from your templates, and Fai compares each draft with them. **Can someone sign on the performer's behalf?** Yes. Under Who signs for them?, choose their agent or manager from the performer's advancing contacts, or choose Someone else, then enter their email under Their email and their name under Who signs for them (optional). The signed copy says who signed on whose behalf. **Can I cancel a contract after both sides signed?** You can't cancel a signed contract. Make an amendment to change it, or give the amendment a termination title and clauses to end it early. **Why can't I select Send for signature?** Something under Fill in before sending is still empty. Enter it, or remove the clause that uses it, and save the draft. **Are the starter templates legal advice?** No. The starter templates are a plain-English starting point. Check them with your own lawyer before you rely on them. ## Still have a question? Book a demo and we will answer it on a call, on your kind of event. Or create your account and see it for yourself.
