SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes assets (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables researchers to craft competitive grant proposals by providing agency-specific formatting, review criteria alignment, budgeting guidance, and integrated proposal components, reducing time-to-submission and increasing alignment with funding agency expectations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agency-Aware Drafting: Provides templates and guidance for NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA, and NSTC submissions, including project descriptions, specific aims, budgets, and broader impacts.
  • Templates & Checklists: Includes NIH Specific Aims page template, NSF Project Summary, DOE narratives, and accompanying checklists to ensure compliance with submission requirements.
  • Workflow Guidance: Supports multi-agency proposal planning, allows for consolidation of interim drafts, reviewer-focused language, and alignment with program priorities.
  • Use Case: When preparing a multi-agency grant, generate a cohesive outline and tailored sections that satisfy distinct agency criteria while maintaining a unified research narrative.

Quick Start

Use the research-grants skill to scaffold a grant proposal outline for an NIH R01 submission.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write an NIH R01 grant proposal outline?

To write an NIH R01 grant proposal, use the research-grants skill to scaffold a structured outline. It provides agency-specific formatting, an NIH Specific Aims page template, and reviewer-focused language guidance to align with NIH review criteria.

What's the best way to prepare a multi-agency grant submission for NSF and DOE?

Preparing a multi-agency grant submission for NSF and DOE is best handled by consolidating their distinct requirements into a single cohesive workflow. Generate tailored sections like NSF Project Summaries and DOE narratives while maintaining a unified research narrative.

Does this grant-writing workflow include budget templates for DARPA proposals?

Yes, the grant-writing workflow includes budget templates and compliance checklists for DARPA proposals. It integrates agency-aware drafting guidance to ensure your project description and budgeting align with specific DARPA program priorities and submission constraints.

Can I generate specific aims and broader impacts sections for NSF and NIH grants?

Yes, you can generate specific aims and broader impacts sections for NSF and NIH grants. The skill provides agency-specific templates that align your drafted sections with the respective funding agency's review criteria and formatting expectations.

How does template generation work for NSTC and DOE grant narratives?

Template generation for NSTC and DOE grant narratives works by automating structured proposal scaffolding. It consolidates NSTC and DOE requirements, providing tailored narrative templates and compliance checklists to reduce time-to-submission and increase alignment with agency expectations.

What are the limitations of using automated templates for federal research grants?

A limitation of using automated templates for federal research grants is that while they provide structural guidance and compliance checklists, you must still manually ensure the scientific narrative and reviewer-focused language accurately reflect your specific project and program priorities.
