Claim Set Consistency Check Agent

Small drafting errors in patent claims lead to office actions, extra fees or weaker protection. When claims are drafted, this agent checks antecedent basis for every term, claim dependencies and numbering, and confirms each claim term is supported in the description. It flags terms without antecedent and dependent claims that refer to later claims. It checks claim counts against fee limits and notes the extra cost when they are exceeded. It lists each problem with a suggested fix. After the patent agent edits, it rechecks the whole set, not just the changed claims, until every check passes. The patent agent decides all claim wording; the agent only suggests. Edge case: a dependent claim refers to a later claim, which is not allowed, so the agent flags it and suggests renumbering.
