SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires , and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of drafting research grant proposals by providing a structured scaffold that guides the user through the necessary sections and integrates existing research primitives.

Core Features & Use Cases

Proposal Scaffold: Automates the creation of the core sections of a grant proposal based on existing research primitives.
Integration of Primitives: Pulls identification strategy, data management plan, and facilities statement from existing documents.
Use Case: For researchers looking to draft a grant proposal quickly, this skill can save time by automating the process of structuring the proposal and populating the necessary sections with existing information.

Quick Start

To draft a grant proposal, run the grant-proposal skill and provide the necessary inputs such as the funder type and the research spec path.

FAQPage Schema

How do I draft a research grant proposal using existing research primitives?▼

Drafting a research grant proposal is automated by providing existing research primitives like a research spec and data management plan to generate a structured proposal scaffold. The skill integrates facilities and computational environment statements into the output.

Can I generate a funding application for NSF, NIH, or ERC grants?▼

Yes, generating a funding application supports NSF, NIH, ERC, and foundation funders. You provide the funder type and research spec path, and the skill populates the necessary proposal sections using Markdown output.

What do I need to prepare before drafting a grant proposal scaffold?▼

Before drafting a grant proposal scaffold, you need an existing research spec and a data management plan. These research primitives are required to automatically populate the core sections of the funding application.

Does the grant proposal generator support YAML configuration and Markdown output?▼

Yes, the grant proposal generator uses YAML frontmatter for configuration and Markdown for output. This structure guides the integration of identification strategy and facilities statements into the final draft.

What is the best way to integrate a facilities statement into a funding application?▼

The best way to integrate a facilities statement is by pulling it from existing documents during the proposal drafting process. The skill automatically merges this with the computational environment statements into the structured output.

Are there limitations when using automated proposal drafting for foundation funders?▼

A limitation of automated proposal drafting is the strict requirement for pre-existing research primitives. Without a complete research spec and data management plan, the automated scaffold cannot populate the foundation funder sections correctly.
