What problem does it solve?
Manually creating and publishing Connect solicitations requires matching strict connect-labs MCP schema rules, deriving evaluation criteria and LLO response questions from raw program design documents, and ensuring public-facing content is free of sensitive information — all of which are time-consuming and error-prone when done by hand.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Schema-compliant payload generation: Automatically formats solicitation content to match the live connect-labs MCP input schema, eliminating manual formatting errors and invalid field rejections.
- Archetype-aligned rubric creation: Auto-derives evaluation criteria and LLO response questions tailored to the program's archetype (atomic-visit, focus-group, multi-stage) with built-in scoring guides for downstream review.
- End-to-end publishing: Transforms approved PDDs and work orders into public-facing solicitations, publishes directly to Connect Labs, and captures the solicitation ID for audit tracking.
- Use Case: For a new malaria barrier-diagnosis Connect opportunity, use this skill to turn the approved PDD and Phase 1 work order into a published EOI solicitation with a full evaluation rubric, no manual schema formatting required.
Quick Start
Use the solicitation-create skill to publish a compliant Connect solicitation for the current opportunity run using the approved PDD and work order.
