Develop research proposals with solicitation alignment, reviewer-focused logic, evidence-bounded preliminary results, milestones, risks, and compelling figures. Use for federal, foundation, equipment, partnership, or internal research proposals.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Research Proposal Development ## Purpose Turn an important research question into a reviewer-decision-ready proposal. Preserve the investigator's scientific direction and distinguish verified preliminary evidence, proposed work, assumptions, and collaborator-dependent commitments. ## Route To Reference Read `references/proposal-development.md` before drafting a full narrative, responding to review criteria, planning proposal figures, integrating preliminary results, or polishing a submission. Read `references/budget-and-justification.md` before building a budget, writing a budget justification, preparing a subaward budget, or reconciling the budget with the narrative. ## Workflow 1. Extract the solicitation's scope, eligibility, deadline, budget and duration constraints, required sections, evaluation criteria, and special requirements from primary sources. 2. Frame the need: high-value application or scientific barrier, current state, precise gap, reason it endures, and the proposed solution's testable advance. 3. Map every aim or thrust to a hypothesis, method, measurable success criterion, risk, mitigation, deliverable, and reviewer criterion. …

How to install
mdr add hanhuark/mechanical-engineering-research-skill/research-proposal-development@sha256:103ef1098bf5190dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.8d6d000, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
