  • Works in 5 steps: Decode the funding call → Frame the problem → Build the proposal spine → …

  • SKILL.md covers Korean Government Grant Mode, Workflow, Default Structure and Before Finalizing
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Grant Builder is an agent skill from Aperivue/medsci-skills. Use when drafting a grant or challenge proposal for a radiology or medical AI project, including a Korean government industry-academia plan. Structures significance, innovation, approach, aims, milestones and consortium roles, keeping claims evidence-based and executable.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill.yml`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Project management. The repository describes itself as: Agent Skills for medical research — literature search, reporting-guideline & citation checks, statistics, publication figures, submission. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor &… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Drafting a grant
  • Challenge proposal for a radiology
  • Medical AI project
  • Including a Korean government industry-academia plan

Example prompts

  • “/grant-builder”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Decode the funding call
  2. Frame the problem
  3. Build the proposal spine
  4. Convert to proposal sections
  5. Execution plan

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3b14ae2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Grant Builder loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 562 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Grant-Builder Skill

Write proposal prose in the language the target call requires. Produce whichever parts the request needs: concept summary, Significance, Innovation, Approach, specific aims, work packages, milestone table, role split by institution, evaluation framework, reviewer-risk memo.

Korean Government Grant Mode

When the user requests a Korean industry-academia grant (산학과제) or research plan (연구계획서) — e.g., MOHW, MOTIE, MSS or regional industry-academia programs — apply the adaptations below. Korean program terms are preserved in parentheses because they are the literal form used on the funding agency's template.

Document Structure (three-attachment format)
AttachmentContents
1 (첨부1, 기본정보)project title, participating institutions, investigator CVs, publication / patent record
2 (첨부2, 매칭확인서)per-institution cost-share confirmation, typically finalized after a kickoff meeting between the institutions
3 (첨부3, 연구계획서)the 10-page research plan — structure below
Attachment 3 Standard Structure
1. Significance & Aims (약 2p)
   - clinical problem with quantitative framing
   - domestic + international trends (3–5 year literature / guideline window)
   - differentiation of the proposed work

2. Research Content & Methods (약 4p)
   - staged roadmap (Phase 1 – N with time ranges)
   - pipeline schematic (mandatory when an AI pipeline is in scope)
   - per-subproject institution and personnel assignment

3. Team Capability (약 1p)
   - expertise + representative record (SCI papers, patents) per investigator
   - cross-institution synergy (hospital = data / clinical; university = algorithm)

4. Expected Outcomes & Utilization (약 2p)
   - quantitative targets: SCI papers, patents
   - qualitative targets: clinical impact, standardization contribution
   - linkage to follow-on larger grants (positioning as a seed)

5. Budget Plan (약 1p)
   - RA salaries, computing equipment, consumables, academic activities, indirect costs
Small-Scale Grants (< KRW 30 million)
  • Write for a non-specialist reviewer; assume the evaluator is not in your subfield.
  • Emphasize feasibility over technical novelty.
  • Prioritize length / format compliance; exceeding the template incurs scoring penalties.
  • Include preliminary data or pilot results whenever available.
  • Keep quantitative targets conservative — undershooting a committed target is punished more than overdelivering on a modest one.

Workflow

Phase 1: Decode the funding call

Extract funding body, call theme, eligibility constraints, deliverable expectations, timeline and evaluation criteria. If no call text is available, infer a generic academic-medical AI proposal structure and label the assumptions.

Phase 2: Frame the problem

Define the clinical pain point, the current workflow limitation, why existing AI or standard care is insufficient, and who benefits if the project succeeds.

Gate: Present the problem framing (clinical pain point, gap, proposed solution) to the user. Confirm before building proposal sections — a misframed problem produces an unfundable proposal.

Phase 3: Build the proposal spine

Always articulate: problem, gap, proposed solution, why this team can execute it, measurable outputs.

Show full SKILL.md (261 more words)Show less
Phase 4: Convert to proposal sections
  • Significance must answer why this matters clinically, why now, and why the proposed solution is worth funding.
  • Innovation: what is genuinely different, why the integration is new, why the novelty is useful and not just technical.
  • Approach: dataset and participating sites, model or workflow components, validation plan, benchmark/comparator, failure analysis, risk mitigation.

Route to search-lit to support significance and prior-art positioning; cite a reference only with a /search-lit-confirmed DOI or PMID, otherwise mark it [UNVERIFIED - NEEDS MANUAL CHECK]. Mark any unconfirmed clinical definition, diagnostic criterion or guideline recommendation [VERIFY] and ask the user. Route to design-study if the evaluation framework is weak, and to write-paper only when the proposal requires publication-style narrative sections.

Phase 5: Execution plan

Generate milestones by quarter or year, institution-level responsibilities, dependencies and handoffs, and required infrastructure. Do not fabricate budget details, and do not promise datasets, partners or infrastructure the user has not evidenced.

Before Finalizing

Check, and flag any failure to the user:

  1. Is the clinical need explicit and credible?
  2. Is the novelty more than "we will use AI", with a clinical consequence?
  3. Are the aims linked to measurable outputs with a concrete benchmark or success criterion?
  4. Is the validation plan convincing, including external validation or a deployment path?
  5. Is the multi-site structure realistic, with each institution in a distinct, functionally integrated role?
  6. Are compute, annotation, and regulatory needs acknowledged?
  7. Are there too many aims for the timeline?
  8. Does it read as a funded program rather than a paper?
