SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Turning a rough initiative into a proposal a decision-maker can actually approve is hard: evidence gets mixed with advocacy, alternatives get weakened to favor the preferred option, and numbers appear without a defensible basis. This Skill structures that work into an interview, an evidence ledger, an approved brief, and a traceable full draft. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Evidence and claim ledger: Classifies every material statement as observed evidence, estimate, assumption, or advocacy, with sources, dates, ranges, and uncertainty kept visible. - Approval-gated workflow: Requires explicit approval of a proposal brief before drafting, and stops with a narrower ask or validation plan when evidence or authority is too weak. - Alternatives and do-nothing analysis: Evaluates at least one credible alternative plus a do-nothing baseline against the same decision criteria. - Use Case: A team lead needs budget approval for a tooling migration. The Skill interviews for context, builds an evidence ledger, drafts a decision-ready proposal with investment basis and risks, and hands the accepted outcome off to planning. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to develop a decision-ready proposal for your initiative, providing the context, audience, and the exact decision you need approved.

Frequently Asked Questions about sd-proposal

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write a decision-ready business proposal with AI?▼

Provide the context, audience, and exact decision requested, then answer one interview question per turn. The Skill builds an evidence ledger, requires your approval of a proposal brief, and only then drafts the full decision-ready proposal.

How does the proposal skill handle estimates and ROI numbers?▼

Every estimate must record its method, inputs, range, time basis, and sensitivity. Costs, benefits, and ROI without a defensible basis remain unknown or explicitly hypothetical rather than being presented as precise figures.

Can the proposal skill approve or execute the proposed intervention?▼

No. The Skill is read-only: it cannot approve, negotiate, assign work, create tasks, commit budget, or implement anything. An accepted proposal only produces a handoff to a separate planning workflow.

What happens when evidence is too weak for the requested decision?▼

The Skill stops and produces a discovery proposal, validation plan, narrower ask, or a named approval gap instead of drafting. Weak evidence leads to a smaller claim, not stronger prose.

When should I use sd-decide instead of sd-proposal?▼

Use sd-decide when choosing among already-framed options. Use sd-proposal when an intervention still needs its full decision case built: problem, alternatives, evidence, investment, risks, and explicit ask.
