grant-proposal

grant-proposal is a command for Claude Code from Abhinavbwj/AEC-Scholar. It costs 15 tokens per session (464 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A service for organising and improving a research grant proposal for architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) projects. It covers the research problem, plan, novelty, impact, feasibility, risks, ethics, and funder requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define research objectives and work packages, outline a timeline, explain academic and practical value, plan dissemination, and prepare data-management and ethics sections.
Why use it?
It helps turn a broad project idea into a structured case for funding. It also exposes missing methods, timelines, resources, risk controls, or compliance information.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

grant-proposal scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Help develop a grant proposal for: $ARGUMENTS

Use the methodologist, academic-writer and aec-domain-expert agents, plus research-methods, aec-domains and research-ethics-integrity.

  1. Frame the case. Sharpen the problem, its significance (scientific + societal/industry — for AEC, tie to decarbonization, productivity, safety, housing, resilience as relevant), and the gap the project fills. Articulate the central research question and an ambitious-but-credible aim.

  2. Objectives & work plan. Define specific objectives/work packages with logical flow, milestones, deliverables and a timeline (offer a Gantt outline). Map methods to objectives (link research-methods).

  3. Novelty & impact. State what's genuinely new and the pathways to impact (academic outputs, industry uptake, policy, standards, training). Include a dissemination & open-science plan.

  4. Feasibility & risk. Team capability, resources/equipment/data access, and a risk register with mitigations. Demonstrate the work is achievable in scope and budget.

  5. Compliance. Address ethics/data protection, a Data Management Plan (FAIR), and any funder-specific requirements (if the funder/scheme is named, tailor to its structure — and tell the user to verify the current call text and criteria on the funder's site).

  6. Budget logic — outline justifiable cost categories (staff, equipment, travel, dissemination, data) without inventing figures.

Produce a structured draft the user can expand, and a checklist of what they must supply (preliminary data, CVs, letters of support, exact budget). Tailor language to the funder's evaluation criteria where known.

Integrity: don't fabricate preliminary results, partners, or track record. Mark every placeholder the applicant must fill with real evidence.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
