Writes the one-page letter of inquiry that earns a nonprofit an invitation to submit a full proposal, using the need-approach-fit-ask structure, funder-language mirroring, and a specific ask stating amount, duration, and what the money buys. Use when a nonprofit leader says "write a letter of inquiry", "this funder wants an LOI first", "how do I introduce our program to a foundation", or "turn our program summary into a one-pager for a funder". Do NOT use for the full grant proposal - use…
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.

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.
