grant-setup

grant-setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ddanntheman/GrantForge. It costs 91 tokens per session (1,103 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A first-time setup workflow for GrantForge that creates a saved organisation profile, writing preferences, reusable grant answers, and a grant-tracking workspace.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record an organisation's background, establish its writing voice, prepare standard answers, and create folders for grant applications and tracking.
Why use it?
It prevents grant work from starting without the organisation details and reusable material that later applications need.

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-setup 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 122 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Grant Setup

Build the organization's persistent GrantForge workspace. Every other skill in this plugin reads from it, so completeness here pays off on every future application.

Prerequisite: a working folder

The profile must persist across sessions, so it lives in a folder on the user's computer, not in temporary session storage. If no folder is connected, ask the user to connect one (their grants folder, or wherever they want GrantForge to live) before proceeding.

Workspace structure

Create this inside the connected folder:

.grantforge/
├── profile/
│   ├── organization.md      # The org dossier
│   ├── voice.md             # Writing voice preferences
│   └── boilerplate/         # Reusable answer library
│       ├── need-statement.md
│       ├── org-capacity.md
│       ├── evaluation-plan.md
│       └── ...
├── grants/                  # One subfolder per application (created by grant-intake)
└── tracker.md               # Pipeline tracker (created by grant-tracker)

The interview

Conduct the interview conversationally, in stages, using multiple-choice questions where options are predictable and free text where they are not. Do not ask for everything at once; group related items. If the user uploads existing documents (annual report, past applications, 990, capability statement, website URL), extract answers from them first and only ask about gaps. Offer document upload before starting the question list — past grant applications are the single richest source.

Stage 1 — Identity and legal

  • Legal name, dba if any, entity type (501(c)(3), government, school district, university, for-profit, fiscal sponsorship arrangement)
  • EIN, UEI, SAM.gov registration status and expiration, DUNS legacy if known
  • Founding year, headquarters, service area (be geographic and specific)
  • Website, primary contact for grants

Stage 2 — Mission and programs

  • Mission statement (verbatim)
  • Each major program: name, what it does, who it serves, scale (people served per year), evidence of effectiveness
  • Population served: demographics, geography, need indicators the org already tracks

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.
