df_clauses, contracts = loader.load_data()
# Output: DataFrame with columns: filename, clause_text, category, start_position, contract_context
```

**Output**:

# Contract-level splitting to prevent data leakage
```

```python
{
    'train': DataFrame with ~70% of clauses,

# Returns: {
#     'risk_intensity': 0.15,
#     'legal_complexity': 0.23,
#     'obligation_strength': 0.18,

    prohibition_density * 100 +      # From actual prohibition terms
    liability_density * 100 +        # From actual liability terms
    monetary_terms_count * 0.5       # From actual $ amounts found
)

# Importance Score (0-10):
importance = (
    legal_complexity * 30 +          # From actual legal language analysis
    clause_length / 50 * 20 +        # From actual word count
    conditional_risk_density * 100 + # From actual conditional terms
    obligation_complexity * 100 +    # From actual obligation analysis
    temporal_urgency_density * 50    # From actual time-sensitive terms
