2. Party names, roles, and service addresses exactly as in the agreement
3. Specific breaches with dates, amounts, and documentary support
4. Governing law, venue, and property location
5. Contract notice clause (method, address, timing, cure period)
6. Statutory notice requirements for the jurisdiction and contract type

## Required Inputs

| Notice clause section reference | Agreement |
| Breach description with dates and amounts | Records |
| Cure actions required | Agreement |
| Cure deadline | Contract / statute |

## Workflow

### 1. Build the Timeline

| Date | Event | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| YYYY-MM-DD | Obligation due | Invoice / email / section |
